Nut Brittle and frayed tempers…
I love Lidl as the moment, their fresh trout and their low fat frozen yoghurts are the best I have EVER eaten in my food noshing life. “Excuse me do you have nut brittle, I got it here last week and it was in your Greek produce section, where is that been moved to?” I asked a podgy faced man in the fresh veg aisle. He pointedly ignored me and carried on talking about some bank loan he applied for to a wee red haired bloke ........

Motorways
Ok, we were a bit bored in the waiting room earlier but this question came up.. Were motorways numbered in the order that they were built?
The M1 is the oldest motorway and is 50 years old but did the M2 come next followed by the M3?
My OH says the M69 was built before the M40 though so if they weren't done in order, why on earth were they numbered as they have been??
From the group blog, http://askoranswer.blog.co.uk/2009/11/02/motorways-7295414/ This group has over 300 members that ask or answer questions on any topic. This question received 13 comments.

There is no secret to the answer of losing someone, the problem is that the answer is the secret. And the answer is only secret, because we have never needed to ask the question up until now.
The loss of a loved one, even if you knew it was coming, causes grief and pain, and there is no answer to the feelings that you have, you must, and you will want to, live with these for a while, and the grief and feelings fade into the back of your mind................

Category ART.
Anything goes - yet there is still plenty of exciting space for dialogue. Tastes are indeed something we discuss and shape, aesthetic experience is a beautifuly shapeable thing. And yet one of the most difficult things is to stay within the play of common value-seeking and exploration of personal experience, and not move into the discourse of competence,...

"Our master bedroom is unfortunately in an area of the house where I can hear every dribble, shitty shot, and brick that kid manages to throw up there.
