    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    I'm sure he passed at the time of his choosing, surrounded with his home and close to his family. Unbeknown to you of course, but I'd grown to form a bond with that little man, all from an inanimate image I simply saw on a screen each day who just happens to be living on the other side of the...

    What on earth is stopping you from doing that yourself? It is child's play.

    Two huge pieces of flake, beer battered, shallow fried, golden brown, tempura style. Huge king prawns and calamari of course. Same treatment ... nuthin' like shark with the sides.

    A load of balls ?
