I've just eaten a tin of baked beans then realised they were 4 months out of date

...waste not, want not

If they look OK (ie they've not gone green or summat), and pass the little finger taste test, it wouldn''t really matter if they're 4 years or 14 years out of date, I'd still eat them

They didn't taste the best but like you say waste not want not!

It prompted me to do a clear-out of that particular cupboard and I found another tin that was over a year out of date! So could have been worse

Easter eggs are fine 4 years out of date.
I'm still breathing.

I once asked a baker how long a cake would keep for, and he replied, "how long does sugar keep for?"

If my bulging stomach is to go for, potentially millenia.
It would help if I didn't think that wine was a replacement for water and the odd bit of exercise would actually do me some good
Saying that I did achieve 5000 steps today.

I just noticed that on the Google page. I think the arrow resembles his moustache. I`m gonna do a forensic search of my flat and remove anything that remotely resembles a short slightly curved line.

It's the blue tape with serrated edge. Everyone knows Hitler's moustache was blue and serrated, right? My immediate reaction was this was a publicity stunt by Amazon. No such thing as bad publicity? Hitler killed my Grandad so I hate Hitler and everything he stood for. But FFS it's a graphic design, nothing more.

Got it now. I thought the black line was his moustache and the blue tab his nose.

Wankers! Got an email this evening telling me my cooker will be delivered between 9-12 in the morning but I can rearrange it unless they're already on their way. They can't be on their way tonight and their flipping phone line is open from 9 till 5. Obviously they'll be on their way at 9 tomorrow!!
