Advantages: Beats it's brother in everyway to be an average drink Disadvantages: It's still only an average drink
Yesterday it was plain old Carlsberg tonight it's the export, courtesy of my mother who's sharing her booze whilst we have some Chinese food she's got from Asda. So again, lets do the intelligent thing and...review it.
Carlsberg are one of the cheaper lagers, this ones a bit more pricey than the normal ?green can version?, infact talking about the colours, this one inverts the normal can and is silver with a green trim. This time the can comes in the smaller and more average size of 440ml, and is 5% ABV so a far stronger drink than it's little weak brother (3.8%). The company we're first brought to my attention as being sponsors of Liverpools shirts when I was little but unbeknownst to me they were an alcoholic beverage manufacturer as opposed to just a name on a football shirt (I was young). The company were founded over 160 years ...

Bean ? or Beans with Ham ? or Beans with Chilli ? or Smokey Beans ? or ?
We tried the kids with several varieties on previous trips. It was the ones in the British Blue labelled tin (not-too-tomato-ey, not-too-spicy: bland in other words) that we kept coming back to. We did find some in a local Publix (Imported from the UK!!) at $ 1.68 a tin. Last time we came we brought a four pack from our local supermarket for 99 pence (37 cents a tin)
2. Aunt Bessie?s Yorkshire Puddings
Sorely missed with the Sunday roast even in the heat of a Florida summer is the Yorkshire with lashings of gravy. This is a simple concoction of plain flour, water, egg and milk baked in a very hot oven. We have tried many times to make them in the U.S. but whether it is the type of flour, additives in the water, the quality of the electricity (! - only kidding ...
Advantages: Great story, good characters, a fun read Disadvantages: Storyline is a tad silly but who cares?!
realises if she wants her inheritance, she has to marry Anthony for real - but she only has 5 weeks to do so. Can she make Anthony fall in love in just a few weeks? And is it really what she wants?
According to the author's foreword, she has somewhat based this story upon the play "The Importance of Being Earnest" by Oscar Wilde after reading it but I can't really comment on that much because I haven't read that story myself. To me, it just sounded like a fun if unrealistic and somewhat silly storyline, but I don't read books for them to be like real life because for me, reading is escapism and I do enjoy a silly read sometimes. I do get nervous reading new authors, especially if I've parted with my hard earned cash for them, but after reading just a few pages of this, I knew I would love it, and I actually found it hard to put down ...

DVD Description
IMPORT/EXPORT focuses on two very different stories: a young woman who leaves her life and child in the Ukraine to travel to Vienna to become a nurse; and that of Paul, a stubborn security guard who journeys from Vienna to Eastern Europe, accompanying his stepfather on a trip to sell gumball machines. Gorgeously shot and exquisitely acted by an impeccable cast, IMPORT/EXPORT is a masterwork and one of 2008's best reviewed films.
