    According to the bag it's soya and linseed. I thought it was just brown wholemeal bread. That'll teach me to read the packet first. It all just melted into a brown blur and I grabbed one that looked vaguely the right shade.

    Yes, probably.

    Anyway thanks to @mashers I've just bought some wholemeal bread. It's very fresh and soft.

    Wholemeal bread is best bread.

    You guys are seriously impeding my plans to stay low on the carb count.

    If your exam is tomorrow there is no value at all in doing practice essays today... at this point you either know it or you don't, take a break for gods sake

    Check into a hotel. Have room service bring you champagne. Watch old episodes of Baywatch.

    I did a couple. Watched one of the films I have to write an essay about and called that "revision". Les 400 Coups. What a classic. The film I studied in German and did an exam on a week and a half ago... Re-watching that was a little harder to justify. :)

    Hand-made crisps / chips. Also known as Kettle crisps / chips.

    They're too crunchy. Does that make sense? Too rustic is probably a better way to describe what I dislike about them, but I always fall for the inventive flavours - the kind you never get with the mass produced range - despite knowing I don't like the way they're made because they hurt my gums and often cut my tongue.

    Ah!

    You whole-grain bread people are making me jealous, my hosts like their bread the whiter and softer the better. They've even got some where the crust doesn't brown....

    Constant access to white bread at school means I now hate brown bread.

    I prefer white bread for sandwiches, and brown makes tastier toast.

    After nearly a lifetime of whole wheat and other whole grain bread, and I've become a fan of very thin white bread. OMG the toast that stuff makes...

    Please tell me your brain explodes when you think about toasted sandwiches.

    Ok, I take back my earlier bread scepticism. This is helpful bread. It's making everything much more... efficient.

    Now you know it, folks. If you want to keep out Esther, hang rye bread from your door. ;)

    How so?

    I don't do subtlety very well... I'm either too subtle or not subtle enough. I can't quite get the balance ;)

    Yeah, and I can't remember when I last felt so... uh... comfortable. You know, afterwards. Hopefully you got that one :-D
