estela, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 11:56 (sixteen years ago) link

Mark C, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 14:00 (sixteen years ago) link

Lingbert, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 15:39 (sixteen years ago) link

Okay - webmail me address lxy!

(isn't lxy a vgtrn?)

Mark C, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 15:46 (sixteen years ago) link

marc c,

we've got some YES for BOVRIL! i shall webmail you?

(yes - how you know that is a mystery to me - but the boys are not.)

thank you ALL for assisting with this international collaboration of taste-testing. it is very exciting.

lxy, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 15:49 (sixteen years ago) link

that c. how? kkkkkkk

lxy, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 15:50 (sixteen years ago) link

i'll drink anything so sure

webmail sent

John Justen, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 15:51 (sixteen years ago) link

webmail sent and thanks again!

lxy, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 15:54 (sixteen years ago) link

Got both yr webmails! Thank you and I will buy some bovril as soon as I don't forget to buy some bovril (anyone with a memory like mine will understand exactly what I mean).

John and Jergins, you must both a) drink bovril as per insructions and b) eat bovril on white bread toast with butter/spread of your choice. I strongly advice smearing less bovril on than you might think - if it's opaque, there's too much and it gets overpowering.

lxy, when I mentioned it had meat in it you said you wouldn't eat it, so I donned my putting two and two together hat and deduced your Vegetarianity. No stalking involved :)

Mark C, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 16:16 (sixteen years ago) link

Hang on, was it jergins who was going to eat my beef paste? Or lingbert? Which one is lxy's boyfriend?

Mark C, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 16:18 (sixteen years ago) link

lol, mark. obviously you missed the UNNECESSARILY EXTENSIVE DISCUSSION on this topic in other threads. no boyfriends, just boys.

the tasting committee will be comprised of:

jergins, lingbert, remy and me. bovril is for boys only, though.

:)

lxy, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 16:51 (sixteen years ago) link

"lxys boyfriend" is not a person, it is a FEELING

John Justen, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 16:52 (sixteen years ago) link

uhh.

lxy, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 16:55 (sixteen years ago) link

Should I send remy a jar too? (I know you don't like me remy but I'm sorry I've been a cock to you and I'd like to partly make up for it by sending you delicious steaming goodness if you'd like some)

lxy, that EXTENSIVE THREAD was got me hooked on ITR in the first place :)

Mark C, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 16:59 (sixteen years ago) link

I have never had Vegemite, but I love Marmite. Someone send me a jar and I will tell you if it stinks or not.

roxymuzak, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 17:04 (sixteen years ago) link

if we keep this up, i think these food donations may get the american economy back on track

John Justen, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 17:05 (sixteen years ago) link

I could use a thing of ketchup while we're at it.

roxymuzak, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 17:06 (sixteen years ago) link

mark c.,

i roped remy into our tasting party since he's coming to sea-wa.

so: i am planning to share all of the varieties with him.

of course if he wants his own "amends" jar, he will probably pipe up when he gets to a computer.

roxymuzak,

LOL!

lxy, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 17:09 (sixteen years ago) link

"lxys boyfriend" is not a person, it is a FEELING

-- John Justen

OMG YES JOHN JUSTEN

roxy, did you get my postcard? if so, and your postal system is to be trusted, i might send you marmite.

Rubyredd, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 21:12 (sixteen years ago) link

hahahahahahaha ruby...

mom, dad, meet my boyfriend, ITR.
what? no, right there, on the screen.
yeah yeah, right here, the whole thing. no, all of them.
no, it's not a person, it's a FEELING.
oh forget it. we're leaving now.

lxy, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 21:23 (sixteen years ago) link

Yes, Rubes, I got it just the other day! I tried to find that thread to thank you for it, but it seems to have fallen off New Answers, and I can't remember what it was called anyway. Thanks!! It totally brightened my week.

roxymuzak, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 21:30 (sixteen years ago) link

(Oh, and I've had Marmite before! I love it! Send some to a nonbeliever in my stead.)

roxymuzak, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 21:30 (sixteen years ago) link

Hey Emily!

Mark C, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 22:13 (sixteen years ago) link

Hey Mark! Long time no C.

roxymuzak, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 22:40 (sixteen years ago) link

thanx mark c i will eat or drink or whatever i'm supposed to do with that whatever stuff and i will enjoy it.

jergïns, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 23:12 (sixteen years ago) link

dear roxy, if you promise to eventually get around to putting up the 1p3 best blonde poll (that sunny is going to win) i will mail you vegemite.

estela, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 02:02 (sixteen years ago) link

marmite is good with cheese too

Rubyredd, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 02:45 (sixteen years ago) link

vegemite is good with cheese; marmite is marmite with cheese.

estela, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 06:20 (sixteen years ago) link

I looooooool'd

wilter, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 06:24 (sixteen years ago) link

i still don't even understand what marmite nor vegemite is. i know i can look it up, but they sound really artificial and false, and it's probably better that i don't know what i'm eating before i eat it.

Lingbert, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 07:32 (sixteen years ago) link

lol what jokes will follow that comment omg lol tee hee

Lingbert, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 07:33 (sixteen years ago) link

i like how non-commital roxy was about the blonde poll. and straight-up changed the subject!

jergïns, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 07:37 (sixteen years ago) link

thread needs bovril pix

jergïns, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 07:38 (sixteen years ago) link

Tesco didn't have the wee jars of Bovril. My search will have to move further afield.

Mark C, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 13:02 (sixteen years ago) link

this morning i smiled at the two dear little jars of international vegemite sitting patiently on my kitchen bench but that is as far as it went, i was too busy to mail them. 'not today,' i told them. 'we don't mind,' they said, 'how long will we be we going for? when can we come home again?' and i turned my face so they would not see my tears.

estela, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 13:11 (sixteen years ago) link

u got mail, estela

roxymuzak, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 14:00 (sixteen years ago) link

Hey estela, do you want some bovril?

Mark C, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 14:27 (sixteen years ago) link

"Alas! my poor Brother"

lxy, Wednesday, 9 April 2008 15:09 (sixteen years ago) link

i sent you a reply, roxy.

thank you, mark c, but i've had bovril before, it has quite a few nostalgic fans over here.

there is a reasonably high chance that the tasters won't like any of our offerings but we will deal with that if and when it happens.

estela, Thursday, 10 April 2008 11:55 (sixteen years ago) link

Is your lack of comment on bovril's deliciousness a polite way of expressing your dislike?

Also - where do cherry ripes come from? Aus or Ca?

Mark C, Thursday, 10 April 2008 13:31 (sixteen years ago) link

i figured out what i'm going to send to our kind overseas friends!!

mark c and estela, webmail addresses to me?

lxy, Thursday, 10 April 2008 15:16 (sixteen years ago) link

Sent! Woo!

Mark C, Thursday, 10 April 2008 15:23 (sixteen years ago) link

received, mark c. !YaY and HurraY!

lxy, Thursday, 10 April 2008 16:01 (sixteen years ago) link

what are you going to send lxy? or is it a surprise?

Lingbert, Thursday, 10 April 2008 16:05 (sixteen years ago) link

A surprise! A surprise!

Mark C, Thursday, 10 April 2008 16:20 (sixteen years ago) link

of course it is a surprise. do you even know me, lingblert?

lxy, Thursday, 10 April 2008 16:21 (sixteen years ago) link

no who are you
