Why does that irk you?

Did you eat it and are now having a raging sugar crash?

Eastyy posted a link to an article bemoaning the reduced size, quantity and quality of the new Creme Eggs.

I was trying to show him the type of egg dreams are made of.

Cr?me Eggs - yuk!! Way too sweet.

My irk - 'young adults' booting footballs/rugby balls around in a busy town centre. If it had come near me it would have gone where the last one did - booted onto the roof!!

It's an irk and a smile, but I have been fully bitten by the Lego bug after building the AT-AT at Christmas. Searched for some other nice vehicles to build, only to find most of the ones I would like are in OOP sets that go for 20-30,000 yen in the aftermarket.

A little further investigation and I discover there's a whole network of traders dealing purely in Lego bricks and websits with instructions and parts lists for everything under the sun (that is the smile part). I set out to order the parts to build an AT-ST. Fast forward five days and I'm now waiting on around fifteen packages from all over the world so I can build various elements of various sets that would cost a fortune to buy sealed. I got ridiculously carried away and probably ended up spending 20-30,000 yen anyway (this is the irk part). At least I will be building a variety of things, not just one single set at the same price. Honestly though, what is wrong with me.

Absolutely nothing, mate. Half the fun of being an adult is buying things you couldn't when you were younger

I still have my heart set on a Thunderbird 2 model kit that I used to stare at for ages every time we went Toys R Us(I never had enough money for it whenever Eid came around).

In fact, I've found it online for a measly Y4000. Might give in to temptation but at least with Lego you know exactly what you're getting in terms of quality.

Mods: Please move Darwock's post to the smile thread by order of (Lego) Her Majesty The Queen.

I saw a Lego Ghostbusters Ecto-1 in Smyth's Toys for an eye-watering ?50. I put it back on the shelf.

I've been collecting the sets for years have all sorts of ships, all the way back from the original Naboo fighter, To X-wings, Tie fighters, b-wings, and an original slave one. I got into it to start collecting the starwars minifigures and must have 100s of them now lol.

Apparently Cadbury's Cream Eggs will no longer use Dairy Milk chocolate but will instead use cheaper, lesser quality chocolate in a bid to save costs.

Spread the word, boycott them!

[randombs]

Or wait and see. If you don't like the taste then just don't eat them unless/until they go back to using Dairy Milk.

They'll see a a massive surge in sales as people try them to see if they aren't as good.

Phoning up Virgin Media technical support because our broadband is down and hearing a recorded message informing me that, due to technical problems, the technical support department cannot take my call right now and I may wish to try again tomorrow
