The Mummy was incredible. Never been on a ride like it. I liked the Spiderman and Dragon Challenge (we were in the front) rides, Simpsons was alright but hasn't it replaced Back to the Future?

Sanibel Island is great for food places and chilling out on a beach. The bairns and adults will really enjoy Cheeburger Cheeburger (http://cheeburger.com/home2/index.asp). Diner-style place that does incredible burgers and shakes etc. Fricking huge basket of fresh onion rings too! If you fancy it, go to Estero and catch a Florida Everblades ice hockey game if the season's in full swing - you can spot up-and-coming NHLers if you're lucky and it's far cheaper & easier to get a ticket than the NHL games. Universal is by far the best theme park there and well worth splurging on queue jump tickets if you've got a bit of money to burn. Swerve Tampa Bay - it's shit.

Corn beef, sweet onion chutney and gherkin sandwich. Love corn beef.

How long do you have to microwave burgers? I didn't do my car biscuit experiment - weather forecast said it'd be 19C out so I didn't bother. It ended up being pretty sweltering so i'm a bit miffed. Going to prep some salmon fillets and make up a peach salsa to spoon on top for tea. Salsa is 1 peach, minced red onion, handful fresh coriander, nip of tequila and a squeeze of lime juice. Then I'll just microwave the whole lot together and post a shit photo of it.

Biscuits of the confectionary variety, you charlatan!

Tomorrow I'm leaving a baking tray with raw biscuit dough in my car to see if I'll have biscuits by the time I finish work. Bet the weather will be shit.

Excruciating.

Think he'd struggle to find a big enough microwave.

If he's done his knee, cap his salary.

CT slathering his mouse with buttery fingers, picking songs only he likes as the family sit stone-faced at the bbq table, staring wordlessly at their cherry tomato-garnished microwaved beetroot salad.

Pardew's going nowhere, regardless of points in december.

Playing an outgoing Gosling instead of blooding youngsters when it was clear we had nothing to play for.

I don't want an advanced playmaker who tracks back. Do Arsenal insist Ozil tracks back? Do Bayern insist Robben puts in his defensive shift? If you play HBA - compensate defensively in the team selection so he can be given free reign to cause problems in the opposition half. It boils down to the fact we have the wrong manager for this particular type of player and this particular individual, so one of them has to go. Also, there's no point in us playing with wingers when our forwards are so reluctant to occupy the space the wingers are crossing balls into.

Pardew can't manage this sort of player, so we have no true way of knowing if Ben Arfa has failed her because of ability. I do think you're wrong though; regardless of what league he's played in, HBA could be an awesome Prem player if he had a manager willing to put up with the baggage and actually play him. Look at Tevez thriving in the league once he'd stopped being pardewed - plenty of Argentine failures in the league yet he was a quality player and it shone through.

You didn't roast them correctly. Then you fucked them up in a microwave. Not a fair roasted beetroot test.

STOP FUCKING MICROWAVING VEG.

Use foil. I've just been fiddling around making a filling for ravioli. Finely-chopped almonds, parsley, lemon juice and peanut butter. Pasta machine shall be getting some good use.

Can't grow one, can you?

Your way with the beard is strong, padwan.

Aye, he was better off staying at Sunderland if we wanted a shot at a cup final based on recent evidence.

Actual margerine is illegal over here, isn't it? You're kidding yourself if you think that completely artificially-flavoured and yellowed spread is better than real, good ol' fatty butter.

Know someone who was working on a script with Rik. Very tragic news to hear. RIP - a wonderful comic actor.

They shouldn't be paid to represent their country. Modern footballers are complete caths.

Was it Savage who said England should play like Liverpool, given the scouser contingent of the squad? Woy did a marvellous job there last time, after all.

Pesto is so easy to make for yourself. Pesto + greek yoghurt makes for a super simple and great pasta sauce.
