Freaking PORRIDGE ![[Mad]](angryfire.gif) The world's only truly grey food, almost tasteless, miserable, quivering lump of glutinous gunk shuddering before a spoon is even forced into it. Or else it looks like grey vomit.
This hideous stuff, exported throughout the world, is barely palatable with salt, whiskey, honey, currants, chillies, dried f*** or a fried egg clapped a-top, and if you have to do that to be able to force it down, it doesn't say much for the starting product.
We need to get some extra powerful catapults or trebuchets for the legions based at Hadrian's Wall* who can then be usefully employed hurling bolts of the stuff back across the border until it's all gone.
* Can't remember which legion is currently stationed there, can anyone remind me? Ta.

As this is now a crossover of Hell and All Saints, perhaps we need a Porridge Survivors Thread where we can sound off about our experiences.

Can't believe nobody's mentioned bagpipes yet. The only allegedly "musical" instrument that's not only not in tune with other instruments, it isn't even in tune with itself.
And tartan. The fabric equivalent of bagpipes. Fundamentally out of tune with anything else you might possibly consider wearing.

Agree about PORRIDGE. Maybe the ****s will deploy PORRIDGE-filled missiles as their own deterrent when Trident goes. It deters me.
The stuff is basically horse food and even the Ir*** know that.

Ach! Some of you sissies haven't spent enough time in orphanages or out on highland walks through the brisk morning rain. If you did you would appreciate that Porridge as a lovely warm, satisfying food that only needs a drop of milk or a wee pinch of brown sugar to be quite tasty and comforting. Please, sir?

What on earth is that? Something in the Marmite family? Perhaps a brown liquid from a dusty bottle that's been on the table for years? Or is it that purple stuff you see in baby's bottles that rots their teeth before they've actually come in? * 'm almost afraid to ask.

I doubt HMtQ is purring over Dave's revelation of her reaction. She's very careful about who gets to know exactly what she has said on any particular issue.
A brief, cool interview without tea and coffee may take place.

All right, but apart from golf, Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, midges, Irn Bru, deep fried Mars Bars, Lulu, porridge and BAGPIPES, what have the Scots ever done for us?

Apparently there's a phenomenon at the moment where Muslims apologise for everything... including all their amazing inventions.

Beige porridge, single malt, Alastair MacLean.
Deep fryed mars bars are a thing, midgie bites really sting,

Y'see, kilts are designed to be worn by men. That may be where it went wrong.
