I have never liked Turkish Delight. It tastes like jellified bubble bath (no I have never eaten jellified bubble bath, I am using my imagination). I have tried, honest I have – I’ve had the Fry’s stuff and the stuff covered in talc […]
SOAP BUBBLES. Why? Why they make them is obvious – a chance to see your ‘favourite’ characters up to their antics out of context. So we get Bianca Butcher nee Jackson getting Rickay entangled with drug lords in Manchester. The Holly[…]
