1 tablespoon of butter/oil

Immediately have the flame on high, with a very hot pan - break the egg into the pan and leave it there for a five count.

Then run the spatula round the underside of the egg's edges, until the egg moves freely when the pan is wiggled.

Turn the heat right down for 1 minute, season the top of the egg (while flipping any excess oil/butter on top of the egg white)

Once the underside of the egg starts to show signs of golden brown turn the heat up for a few seconds and the egg is done.

(just how I do it)

Such a load of bollocks (although I totally agree with what it says about homeopathy). We all got measles when we were kids - none of us died and our immune systems are better than yours as a result.

The homeopathy bit was my favourite.

Also my immune system is brilliant! But I never had MMR.

Yeah, I had everything - MMR, chickenpox, the lot. I even had whooping cough, cos there was some controversy about the injection causing brain damage so I didn't have it. When my granddad had TB we had the test and they found I had natural immunity - that was impressive for me. My poor brother was only three and had to have the injection - I can still remember hearing him howl in pain down the hospital corridor.

MMR isn't an illness. It is three separate illnesses.

I was thinking that, has she had the jab or all the illnesses - I assumed the jab but then the rest of the post seemed to be referring to the illnesses. When I said I never had the MMR, I was referring to the injection. I did have mumps and German measles, but I don't know if that counts as a type of measles that MMR targets.

German Measles is Rubella. Measles is different.

I know, I mean I had all three. Just seemed quicker than typing out "measles, mumps and rubella". I've done it now though...

Adios Timbo, tu puta madre.
Seeing as you are away for a week I shall endeavour to insult you spuriously until you return.

Liverpool fans grieving over the loss of the tactical dunce that is Kenny Dalglish.

I can't understand how they consistently blind themselves to the real world. In 'King Kenny's' case he led them to the WORST premier league campaign they've ever had - and a lot of money by buying players based on nationality as opposed to proven quality. If they'd paid half the money (or less) for all their flops, it wouldn't be so bad - but they finished 8th.

I'm a Liverpool fan but I disagree with the general consensus.

He had to go really. I've ranted before about the team's style on the pitch, and their clueless lack of efficiency and while it's their fault too, the manager has to accept the blame too as that's how he's set the team up. This has been a bad season on and off the pitch for Liverpool so something had to give. I've the utmost respect for what Kenny's done in the past for the club, but he seems beleaguered by modern football and it's all tarnishing his reputation.

I genuinely don't know who I fancy for the job now though. A lot of people have been tipping Martinez, and the bookies make him the heavy favourite, but I somehow just can't see it. Yes he's done brilliantly in the latter stages of the campaign to take Wigan to safety but he consistently lets his team get bogged in a relegation battle before he shows his class. Why? Perhaps AVB or Rafa would be more suited.

Edit - just checked bet365 and their odds are now AVB 2/1 fav, Martinez 4/1, Rafa 8/1. Money's fairly gone for Martinez given he was 5/4 earlier.

I heard a classic Liverpool fan interview yesterday after the announcement -

Interviewer - are you disappointed that Kenny has gone?

Kopite - Yeah - well nah - well yeah, I mean, its like going back isn't it, we had to move on but we went back and you can't go back...

Interviwer - Who do you fancy for the job now then?

Kopite - Rafa.

Honestly, they are becoming caricatures of themsleves.

Haha I saw that last night, it's very good.

Oh well I've just put this in the chat room, but since you're talking about Liverpool: the juxtaposition of the headline from one story and photo from a totally different one is ace on the back page of today's Times:

I'm already looking forward to giving this a listen: :)

06:35 – We have a big rant about taxi drivers, car parks, bus drivers and all that’s wrong with the modern world

07:05 – More little moans and we talk about pirate radio adverts for rave events that are also advertised at traffic lights

07:20 – We pay homage to the work of skrillex

It's a brilliant film, I loved it. Zoot is a huge comic geek (so if it's not perfect he will know about it) and he thought it was amazing too.

Wouldn't you be with a stupid looking pair of bunny ears?!
