    Have you tried the Meateor pizza from Dominoes? They use BBQ sauce instead of tomato for the base and just that simple change makes it so different. Add a tonne of meat on the top including meatballs and you are sorted.
    They don't actually have it on the menu anymore but will still make it if asked

      Putting sultanas in curry is a crime! Sultanas in a korma should be a capitol offence!

      The only 'curry' that should have sultanas is Coronation chicken.

      Fader: Papajohns to a pizza with bbq sauce, one of the chicken ones. It's very nice but oddly sickly.

        I don't like Sultanas in anything.

          I do a curry-style stew that cooks in about 3 hours that uses sultanas (and crushed pineapple!). The flavour is awesome and those sultanas just pop in your mouth like a kitten's eye.

                  My irk today:

                  Took the missus on a walk thru our lovely welsh countryside, past the fresh clear waters, thru the lush forests etc.
                  It was a 3 mile walk on a lovely day, but the surprise was at the other end - a vintage railway station & track which was once a main line to Aberystwyth (until Dr Beeching had some trainlines removed in the late 60's) that travels a few miles thru more lush country with a couple of cute little stations along the way.
                  It was a lovely day out, but I was very dissapointed that on that particular day they had replaced the little steam engine with a small diesel instead, so we didnt get the rumble or the power that you feel from a steam engine & it didnt feel like a real vintage experience

                    Car insurance going up from ?650 to ?780! Despite me being older, another years no claims and my car going down in value.

                    Still, Hasting offered me ?580 (plus ?40 cashback) so I'll simply go with them.

                      Best thing these days is to switch insurance company every year as they don't value existing customers. My quote with More Than this year had gone up ?90 so I switched back to Aviva and saved ?70 so my pay out this year was ?320 fully comp (that's 8 years no claims too).

                        Yep it used to go down but no inexplicable it goes up. I changed this year too.

                                How on Earth did you get a combined insurance that low?! If I added my brother onto mine it would jump up a fair bit....his insurance quote this year for the M3 rocketed up to over ?1000. Eek!
