Hi great website. You left out yellow lines, Nicholas Parsons, Jeremy Beadle and nostril hair!

Who's nostril hair?

The unkind would suggest that Jeremy Beadle is nostril hair.

Nostril Hair is an undiscovered Cuban revolutionary

Cor, I wonder if that first comment is from the Ian Polmear at Pirate FM, the South West's Real Music Variety radio station. Cos if it is, he was supposed to be presenting a radio show at 1:45 this afternoon. Hi Ian.

The mention of Concorde reminds me of the time we visited a school fete near Windsor (just to take a quiet look at the school without being noticed). Then Concorde flew over, low and noisy after take-off,and we were the only two people to stand and stare upwards as I presume all the others there were so used to it. So much for being anonymous...

oo, I disagree with so many of those. But not many, really.

Rich Tea biscuits? What planet you on DG? Call yourself an Eastender? Tut.

Is there anything more bland than a Rich Tea biscuit? Except perhaps a Morning Coffee, or one of those very inappropriately named Nice biscuits?

Ice cream wafers? (the cheap sort)

All three are delicious. But you have to have a mouth unsullied by tobacco, alcohol, pizza and curry to appreciate their sweet subtlety. (Not that I'm suggesting for one moment that your own mouth is so sullied. I haven't the faintest idea, nor do I care.) Simple pleasures are too simple these days. It's got to be Dolby 5.1.

I object - my tongue is coated in a residue of nicotine, alcohol, tannin and grease, and yet even I am able to taste the fantasticness of Nice Biscuits dipped in a cuppa.

Question - how do you pronounce Nice Biscuits? Like Nice, the french town, or nice, the english word?

argh, queue pushers and other insects. I forget them. You know, the people in petrol stations who lean over from behind you and hand the cashier their tenner for petrol while you're trying to pay for a beef and horseradish sandwich. How can petrol stations make stuff (even with horseradish) taste so tasteless? I've tried. RIGHT...I'm off to bed with a Horlicks and Radio Times.

Sarah, it depends how posh you are. Common people say Nice. Posh people say Niece. It's a bit like the vars/vaise divide. Me, I was 13 before I heard them called anything but Nice.
