Uh, 500MB is rather a lot. Like an hour long lot.

You're not uploading an unencoded AVI, are you? :S

It's a 3gp file straight from my phone.

Which means it's MPEG, so it should be smaller. :/

I'm confused. :(

Ah man, I'm in Faro Airport Portugal with no wifi so aren't going to be able to watch this for hours. Gutted!

"It tastes like the smell of freshly cut wood" :D :D :D

Ahahahah the pork scratchings :'D

Hahahha :D

That was great.

But... it's fried pig skin, how can you possibly not like that? :'S

To be fair, the traditional place to "enjoy" pork scratchings is the pub to accompany a lot of beer, much like a donner kebab . They are pretty horrid otherwise so I'm with ken and Co.

 

Scampi fries ftw!

Boosts are superior to Twixes imo, but only in small doses - I couldn't eat two Boosts in a row, for instance, as they're way too sweet.

And Crunchies are, as you have discovered, fabulous (nod)

Now, beef jerky, that's a strange product. It's like salty, slightly beef-flavoured plastic :& (yet strangely addictive)

hahaha, that was great. Well done all four of you (inc dog).

I think your main mistake was eating the pork scratchings straight after chocolate. That is not a good combination! They should go really well with a nice beer.

Speaking of which there is a beer festival running near my house and I'm off there tonight. With luck they'll have some nice big fresh scratchings on sale, none of this artificial stuff!

that was fantastic, genuinly 'laugh out loud'

I especially liked Tanner - "OMG! there's a /hair/ on it!!!"

The chocolates were all very good, I really really liked that one with the honey in it. I've had something like it before but I can't remember what it is. And the Boost bar is very good! The only one I didn't really care for was the Curly Wurly, and that's only because the caramel was so think it was hard to chew!

Now those scratchings... those are just /wrong/. Do you seriously eat them? I assumed they were for playing joke no foreigners.

if I bring home pork scratchings for my wife she is happier than if I gave her flowers - actually, flowers just make her suspicious...

Curly Wurlys are nicer if they're warmed up a bit, I think, as otherwise like you say they're a bit tough. Although, by the time you get to the end of to the end of one it's usually softened up enough anyway.

The honey one was a Crunchie. They're awesome.

The stuff in the Crunchie is puff candy (at least that's what it's called up here).

 

You can make it at home dead easy, too!

Ahhhahaha! Can't believe your dog wouldn't even eat it. Sometimes you get lucky with pork scratchings and get a nipple.

 

I have no idea where that puts the scores. Somebody figure it out.

Man, just my luck. A nipple would have made me piss myself!

I don't know but everything we've tried so far has been very good!
