My Grandad was in the navy and always swore by a pinch of salt in black coffee. I tried it, it was f***ing foul.

I think coffee was probably a lot worse in those days.

I have on occasion put a few grains of salt on top of the coffee in the espresso maker. But I am Mr Saxa after all.

Yeah it is.  

I was on a night dive once and the dive guide jumped in to make her entry just before me and landed on a passing whale shark that was just below the surface.  She was a bit shocked to say the least.

He shouldn't be interferring in their lives like that. Leave them be.

But why shouldn’t he, if he’s not causing harm.
Some wild animals seem to enjoy physical contact.

Watching them in their natural habitat is cool but you stay the f*** back and respect their space. They’re an endangered species and who knows what you’re passing onto them that might be harmful.

The precautionary principle - unless we are pretty certain that we aren't harming them, then back the f*** up and leave them alone. They aren't toys.

There is no way of knowing what that creature is thinking or feeling so stay away from it.

I've had some dandelion coffee today. Not bad.

Fair enough, I understand that. It’s just that I was watching the Ade Adepitan documentary on ch4 last night and the forest rangers in a wildlife park were playing with orphaned gorillas. I guess they had become partially domesticated though

In the Flintstones I’m pretty sure I remember Fred sliding down a dinosaur, so this isn’t anything new.

Flaming Hot flavour you'd think - pickled onion are way too smelly for a man who is constantly on the pull.

tough question to answer because there's loads more in the press but I'd go through a bottle a week on average I guess. Loads do this gimmicky thing where they try to make the names all scary and s*** and whatever I get the branding but what I really want is some company to release boss sauces with names like little fluffy clouds

I made some sambal this afternoon. As ever, I only vaguely followed the recipe. Red Chillies, garlic, onions, ginger, kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass and some cherry toms. Baked. Blitzed, sauteed in oil with a a dash of fish sauce and a spoonful of sugar.

I might should have deseeded some of the chillies first

Saw a tweet in relation to that which said Catherine O’Hara was only 36 when she made Home Alone.
