You can no longer buy a proper size Mars bar but McDonalds can advertise and sell a Double Big Mac
Yes, but it now comes with nutritional info - 650 calories, so you can choose to have a salad instead of fries. :)

Yeah, so they can trust people to make a sensible decision if given the info when buying a double double burger but not when buying a extra taxed choccie bar

Literally just got one of these for the first time an hour ago.

Not quite as good as the Grand Big Mac, hope they bring them back again soon for a few weeks :)

I enjoyed the double quarterpounder during the eat out to help out period, think they're still selling them, but four burgers in a bun look a bit off-putting to me, even if they are just 2-ounce patties. :)

Just opened a 9-pack of soft bog roll that I got from either Lidl or Aldi. But now I can see why it was so cheap, the sheets are the size of postage stamps. :lol:

That's cats for you apparently they love going through doorways which is why they sometimes seem indecisive at a door.

Four flipping hours to assemble a bedside cabinet!!

Nailed the back panel in place, later found I fitted the top the wrong way round and had to dismantle it. Put it all together again, completed it only to find I forgot to leave the shelf inside, which wouldn't fit in without another dismantle. :x :x :lol:

lol -i feel your pain. many years ago i was assembling a mini wardrobe (from ikea) for one of my kids and found it weird that I had to use the drill to put in the hinges. likewise, the shelving seemed way off. anywho -turned out i was putting it together back to front. unlike you, i just left it as it was :D

How the fuck do screws, nuts, washers, etc. disappear into thin air when you drop them on the floor? You can drop one in the middle of an empty room and you still won't find it!!
