Loads of the buggers here in Ware/Hertford over the last couple of years.

It's from a shop in Germany and the product is called Black Forest Tofu, shouldn't it be Schwarzwald Tofu?

I thought Taifun was a German company as well.

'When she cautioned him not to fall asleep in there, his final words were, "Okay, I won't."'

At least he was true to his word.

Government should not be using it whatsoever and any employees using it face disciplinary action.

Radio Paradise have a few streams. Personal favourites are the Rock Mix and for lounging around, reading etc. the Mellow Mix. If you want something a little different then the Global Mix might suit you.
For general day to day listening then the Main Mix covers just about everything. For me personally, I find there's too much Beatles and Reggae. I can't stand them. But YMMV.

Although Spotify has some excellent prog playlists, that sodding AI thing pisses me right off (although there may be a way to get rid of that, I've got to try it out) I have Amazon Prime so their music service is a bit of a no brainer as it's cheaper. Not sure if I can tell the difference in audio quality. At 67 and a lifetime of British Army (I was in the Artillery man, play it LOUD!) and working with rock bands, my ears are probably not up to the finer points.
For rock and prog 24/7 then Morow is your friend.

Glad it's not just me ;-)

Upvote for the use of the word turgid.

But yes it is. I found that to be the case with the Foundation series as well. I read them when I was younger - perhaps I skimmed them, or I'm just getting picky as I get older.

That doesn't look anywhere near big enough does it?

This just underlines the need for reliable alternatives. They've pumped billions into Starliner and now looks like they'll need billions more. Someone needs to answer for this.

Tried Aldi (Hertford) for a while. Was never happy with the quality. Apart from the German beer and their wine.

As soon as I saw the title I knew there would be an Expanse reference in the comments :-)

Just finished rewatching it for the nth time. Still finding little bits I don't remember from before.

I get what you mean, we all have different requirements, didn't expect Brave, though. It's getting a lot of flak lately.

Thanks anyway; -)
