A thread not for the fragile

[monkeywiener]

I have had another dilema.

Basically we have 3 vending machines out side. 2 of them sell cold drinks such as coke, zero, nestle lemon , tins of cold nescafe coffee and some wierd bottles of chinese stuff which looks very similar to urine. The other vending machine has nuts, pretsles and some stick crisps.

Well this is the dilema....

I have been up on the power station since around 5pm dreaming of some stick crisps. The thought of them has been make me salivate and lick my lips. I was fantasising about putting them in my mouth, feeling there rough texture with my tongue. Then the taste explosion of salt which is followed by that well familiar crunch. mmmmmmm
But as it happens the snack machine wasnt working. So I am sat here with just a tin of lemon tea and thats it.
What should I do? Stop at a 7/11 on the way hope to buy some to satisfy my thirst for these stick crisps or what?

Me so hungry :(

Please help me

Oh dear ! I know how you feel ! I once was desperate for chocolate but machine was out of order !
Perhaps you could get a twig off a tree and pretend it is a stick crisp !!
By the way, what is a stick crisp lol ??

Hongkong sounds much more attractive from your describtipn compared to monkey's, WB, i will visit soon, do you know if the designer stuff and cosmetics over there are cheaper than here?cheers

[tiggerblue10]

Sorry WhiteBear :-(

We had a 7/11 in the area South London that I used to live in and it was taken over by a Londis or some kind of mini-mart anyway. Haven't seen a 7/11 in about 15 years. Not even in my travels, thats why I thought they'd become defunct.

Oh well, my powers of observation are obviously in the decline! Lol

[Drisgirl]

Ive never ever seen a 7/11 -is it peculiar to any part of the UK?

Im assuming BTW its a corner shop open from 7am to 11am -is that right?

[mirela]

hi tigger, i saw some of them 3 or 4 years ago in dublin, not sure if they are still there.

[WhiteBear]

Everythings Much CHEAPER in Hong Kong!!!! u just need to haggle them!!

if ya up for bargains go to

Ladys street? i think its called that....

in Cantonese its: ..... oh i cant say it but not .. prob similar to Mandrine...

Hong Kong is like London, but lots of things to see etc... if u go Visit the Big Buddah!!!
