England's greatest Achievement.

Welcome to the General Discussion area where just about anything goes! This area is designed to discuss all matters and does not necessarily have to be Transformers related. Please keep topics relevant.

England's greatest Achievement.

Postby Rodimus_Lantern » Mon Apr 02, 2007 8:38 pm

Besides, Malt Vinegar, Monty Python, Games Workshop, Queen, Pink Floyd, and the Beatles I have discovered England's greatest achievement ever.

Sherbet Lemon.

Today while picking up a couple of Milka Bars.I discovered a great treat. That would be the Sherbet Lemon. At first I though Hmm, English Lemon Drops. Then I realized they contained Sherbet and that got me intrigued. So I bought a pack and on the way home popped one into my mouth. So tasty.

All I can say is Thank you England. Thank You.

nah, I still reckon their greatest achievement was when they packed their best and brightest up and sent them off to a distant land in 1788. ;;)

Certaintly explains why so many of you poms come out here backpacking. Need to get away while the heat dies down huh? :P
(I wish you people would realise the whole "Australia was founded by thieves and murderers" thing is the lamest way to insult me. I'm quite proud of what this country has become from what it was founded on so ner!)

Sheffield has something called Henderson's Relish, which is quite tasty. The closest condiment to it in terms of flavour is probably Worcestershire Sauce / Worcester sauce.

We also have Miranda Richardson, afternoon tea, Joanna Trollope, the Queen's English and R.P., the South West, Anthony Stewart Head and disgruntlement.

Shamefully, we have Top Gear, Jeremy Clarkson, lager louts, the South East and a Labour government.

Diagree, agree, undecided, agree, agree!

I still can't stand that moronic Clarkson, though.
