It's matured (eXtra Old).
I've not had any yet but when I get it I'll let you know
I think this quote from the marmite site sums it up for me
"..[it's] as though the Marmite has come out of the jar and given me a swift kick to the head!"

As I said you should be exiled.
It is a wonder people sat in the same building.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
The last few posts have got me thinking of Twiglets.
I've not had any for ages and just Googled to see if they are still being produced. Did you know they now also come in Curry flavour and a couple of other flavours like Worcester Sauce and Tangy? I have got to track some of them down and have a taste to see if they are as good as the Original Marmite coating.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
I think everyone should try it at least once - it's a power sandwich

It's not the power people are worried about - it's the exhaust.....

Why is it I am suddenly associating Dilli with Kevin Wilson - Mick the Master Farter...

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
OK,
so I've told all my nearest and dearest so I might as well share this with you lot
My eldest phoned from his hols with his g/f to say that he has some news: they are engaged.
Great stuff - and I am so proud of him for keeping everything a complete secret to everyone (including his mother grrrr and girlfriend ) and asking her parents beforehand for permission to ask for her hand in marriage, chose what sounds like a lovely ring (risky - she's very picky) took her to the beach at sunset half way through their break away, knelt and asked her... It would have taken a lot of courage for him to do that.
I can't stop smiling and leaking tears.
I'm so proud of him for being such a gentleman and brave enough to be so romantic. She will be flashing that stone and gold at every opportunity and be over the moon.
He seems more a 'man' than 'a son' now.
It's great when true love works things out.
Have to go and get more tissues

Nearly chocking on my tea watching ITV's 'Florida: Paradise Lost. A ex-pat woman living there with the name Jenny Taylor.
I'm easily pleased.
