my stepdad sent me this short article about Dewsbury from the Hudds Daily Examiner to cheer me up. It opens with "It's a shithole - that's your headline".

I once saw someone open the boot of their car, take out a family size squeezy bottle of heinz ketchup, and do just that. I was in England at the time.

Oh my god I am never using condiments at a restaurant ever again. Although lately in America you get yer "ketchup" in a little metal cup (for portion control I guess).

no it's a shot glass

Single origin ketchup, aged for 18 months in used sherry casks

Son #1 asked today if you could make wine from coca cola, I reckon the preservatives would stop it fermenting no matter how much yeast you get in there, someone's probably had a go though. (a brief look at youtube reveals yes, someone has)

my son drinks Frank's hot sauce/Encona/whatever tabasco/scirocco variant is there, straight from the bottle and frequently drains the whole bottle. It is his wine.

the thing I don't like about that vid is that it is intrusive and sneering, just leave the guy alone.
