For me, I like the heat sensation and probably a small endorphin rush. I'm okay going Madras and vindaloo strength, but they need to have decent ingredients too.

 

Agreed, I appreciate both but am a bit put off by the fact that it's always just chicken and curry sauce. Maybe that's how it's meant to be but I like having some onions and other elements to it :lol:

oh dear, craig joining gemmill in the namby pamby gang. if I was take a punt id say the pair of you both put a squiggly line of that weak as piss french's american mustard on your hot dogs.

@Rayvin...

 

if I was properly recommending a hot sauce I would go for the encona scotch bonnet, it is hot but not ludicrously so and is really fruity and sweet. econa also do a carolina reaper one too but it's not in the same league for heat as the one I posted originally, to the point whereby you'd doubt they were made from the same chilli.

tesco stocked both the enconas for a while seem to anymore, you can buy them online though.

as to the original jorvik chilli, the wife bought it knowing full well id have to give it a go. it's stupidly hot to the point of making snot run out your nose. worth having a bottle in the house just to see how many of your friends are stupid enough to have a slug of it.  :lol:

the wife also bought me a packet of peanuts from the same market stall and ive just given them a go. she asked if they were as hot as the sauce and I said they're quite mild, so she gave them a go. she now thinks im a cunt. they're probably not for you either!

it is nice, but I prefer the scotch bonnet one, and it doesn't compete heat wise with the one I posted on the previous page. its like lava in a bottle.  :lol:

where you getting the encona one from then? tesco only seem to stock the original (which i really like) and thai sweet chilli, which is more for girlie's, like gemmill.

I get mine from Sainsbury's- they stock a surprisingly good range of hot sauces

Those Encona sauces are really nice and great for adding a bit of heat to dishes. I’ve been using the original West Indian Hot Pepper sauce for years which I think is a mix of habanero and scotch bonnet chillies. Got a nice flavour to it and not just heat. Do an extra hot version with a bit of ghost chilli in too. Apart from the hot (and really fucking hot) ones their milder sauces are spot on too.

Kids man. Noticed some strange activity on my bank account last, from Google store. Went to investigate and about £50 of charges I didn't recognise. Phoned the bank and all they could do at that time was freeze my card. So now I have a frozen card. 

 

Then I noticed £150 pending on my credit card from Google store, including a payment of £79.99. A bit of investigation and it turns out my youngest has made dozens of microtransactions, and not so micro, for  "Toka Boka" world. I can't afford this amount of money at the moment, I'm on my arse.

 

Bank and credit card won't help, I've been on my Google account and requested refunds which they might but fuck knows. Anybody got any experience of this?

 

Gutted my daughter has stolen from me like this, but also genuinely don't know how. She says she just clicked and there was no need for verification? But I've got the full suite of biometrics turned on with two stage verification. I assumed this was service specific but it might actually be decice specific? My card details must have been. On the tablet. If I buy anything I need a thumb print and a code, and for the credit card I need to verify it in the app, why have this when my daughter can get stuff with no security?

 

I'm removing my payment cards from all my accounts now and will try to plug any security gaps, but still stressed out. Modern life sucks. 

 

Update. Claimed the money back on Google, they took some scattergun approach refunding some purchases but not others without any explanation or rationale I could see and no way of contacting them. Surely if one purchase is accepted as refundable, they all should? Needless to say they wouldn't refund the biggest one, ÂŁ79.99, which was about half the overall cost.

 

So I then sent a begging email to the developer, and fair play, they refunded the big one. In total with a lot of hassle I've recovered about 3/4 of the costs. Still pissed off. Massively increased my security from now on.

I'm amazed you got anything from Google.

Have you not experiencing Renton complaining? They'll have lasted about 5 mins before conceding.

It's more that he actually found someone who would engage with his complaining.

Its an online form which you can find in your Google account. They should have refunded the whole lot according to their T&Cs as far as I can see if you flag it within 48 hours (I did it in 12 hours). Also by asking for a refund your game account is closed so you can't use ANY purchases. So you've paid for something thats not usable. Imagine if that was the case for physical goods?

 

Honestly, if I had time, energy and money  I would pursue them in court the absolute thieving cunts. But lesson learnt hopefully.

Started my new job on Sunday. 
To say it’s an absolute piece of piss compare to Damage Transport would be underselling it. 
 

Also, getting a shiny wagon to myself next week when I start “tramping”…


I’m sure Linehan would have something to say about its brand name, but we all know he can just go and fuck a cactus.
