Ban Marmite to appease the Aussies?... I think not. Perhaps if Australia ate more Marmite they might play Cricket better...

...Now there's a thought...

Though I know nothing about Cricket apart from it being a particularly noisy insect, the reports I've heard of the passions raised by the gaming version indicate that that may be a particularly appropriate and propitious observation.

Cricket is England's national sport (Lots of people think it's football but Cricket and Tennis came first), it's very slow paced, sometimes boring but played worldwide (India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, the West Indies all have excellent teams). Australia and England have this massive rivalry, we (the English) go through phases of either playing extremely well, or extremely badly. This tournament we've been playing very well (although last night we were absolute rubbish) and we've basically won the season. The Aussies don't like that :)

You see, the SPORT word.

There's a better S word that keeps you a lot fitter.

It begins with a lie and ends with babys.

Probably costs a lot less as well.

I agree, Amigo. Although the Babies part never agreed with me and 'er indoors, we've decided not to produce.

And I'm only into the kind of sport that involves using a stick with a string attached to both ends and using that to propel pointy sticks into bales of hay. It's still English law to practice that once a day from the age of 15. :D
 
Marmi-what? Huh?

Lol.

Marmite, it's a yeast extract that can be spread on toast, most people either love it, or hate it. Personally I like it with lashings of butter. But the company who make it captialised on the "Love it/Hate it" thing, the TV Ads were hilarious... Picture this if you will.

Some guy wakes up, he's hungover, he goes to the fridge and pulls out a pint of milk, he sniffs it an winces as it's obviously sour, he then sees a slice of toast someone has left on the counter, he take a bite and sees a bottle of marmite sitting on the side, he then retches, grabs the bottle of sour milk and slugs it down in one hit, breathing a sigh of relief afterwards...

Not as funny as the Heinz Salad Cream ad but still funny.
