As long as it’s not a tory one he’ll be fine.
I think its fairly safe to assume that it would not be a Tory one, they only deal in public school white ones from what I have been led to believe....

I'll let you know in a few days. They also do a range of chilli beer. I'm intrigued.

No pain, no gain. To be honest some of the curries I have act like a colonic irrigation anyway.

I've had some decent stouts with chili but it's been a very slight hint, and definitely not scotch bonnet.

My missus bought me some chilli chocolate once, it was really nice chocolate then a minute or so later the after-taste of the chilli kicked in and ruined it (not to mention being quite uncomfortable). Just seemed like a great way to ruin nice chocolate, and a little bit reminded me of the Monty Python confectioners sketch

I ate some scotch bonnet once. I'm OK with spicy foods, not blistering hot ones, but it was OK,I only had a bit.
I ate it. Fine. Hot but I could handle it. The lad wanted to kick a ball around. Got to the front door, about 1 minute after eating the chilli. Then the stomach cramps and the dry retching started. Followed by the sweats.
So anyway, let us know how it goes. may have only used a bit in there,

Wasn't sure whether to put this here or in the other thread, but it made me laff so here it is. Ordered a top for my lad from adidas on Black Friday. Two weeks later was still showing as "Not yet dispatched" so rang Customer Services to ask WTF. Permanently busy so followed advice of recorded message and sent a message via their FB page. Next day, no answer from FB so rang again, spoke to helpful bloke who unclogged it from the system, two days later top arrives, all good. The following day I get a message on FB from adidas responding to my request for help from four days ago saying "Hi how can we help?". The problem was sorted so they couldn't but if that had been my only channel of communication I'd have been fuming so I replied "Four days to respond to a simple FB message, that's shocking". And forgot about it. This morning, had a reply apologising it had taken them four days to respond to my original message, five days after that message. Not sure if they're taking the piss or using mathematical sequencing to ensure the worst possible level of customer service. I look forward to a further response in 6 days time

Nike store have an extra 50% off sale and. Managed to pick up a pair of new trainers for 14 quid. I’m not fussed about brands in general but I do find Nike’s one of the only trainers my size 12s are comfortable in.
