Knowing pret it probably had pine seeds and aromatic rocket in it, but other than that a sarnie is a regular sarnie

You don't know "knackered"? It's the garage repairman's favourite word ... "that exhaust is knackered mate". ie. rather tired out


I played in the pit for a girl school's production of calamity jane a while back - me and the other trumpet player were the only 2 blokes in the production, so they hadn't bothered to give us a seperate dressing room

Fun times
