Although those out of work include van Gaal and Muttley.
Not too shabby. Maybe we should just open a desk at a Dutch job centre.

I just want a new manager in who says something like 'It smells all wrong, like it is really on the way down'

Something you might say when you pick up the post and realise someone's sent you a Bounty Bar Ice Cream.

Bounty's have dissected coconut in them.

I absolutely love Bounty's. Do they still make Bounty ice cream bars back home? Don't get them here. Bastard Canadian government.

That intrigued me, so I've just spent five dull minutes reading about Canadia's trade restriction on imports of ice-cream.  Fascinating stuff.  The fascists in Toronto also banned the use of mayonnaise on the various hot dog stalls around Toronto if my memory serves me well.

I haven't purchased a hot dog from a street vendor in a good while. Not since the Toronto Indy Car event I attended in 1999 that didn't end well. We should leave it at that. Not sure on the mayo thing, but you've convinced me to go check now. I will report back sir in a timely manner.

As for the ice cream thing. Firstly, let me state for the record that I love ice cream in any format. But Bounty and Snickers (are they still called Marathon at home?) are my favourite with Mars coming a close 3rd. If any ice cream connoisseurs could advise of anything new and exciting on that front it would be appreciated.

No, Snickers here as well I'm sad to report, although most people I know of a certain age still refer to Marathons and Opal Fruits.

I did hear they were changing Snickers back to Marathon just recently, but it doesn't appear to have happened.

Apparently, Canadians eat more Doughnuts than Americans.

Fascinating...

"Youve always got time for Tim Hortons" as the jingle used to go when I lived out there for a year.  Tim Horton was a donut chain through Canada, I think named after a Hockey star.  Maybe we will "always have time for a Dunne Pie"

Always get a free tray of Tim Hortons every time we leave Calgary, a bit sticky!

Tim's is still here and growing stronger, and Tim Horton was a hockey star who played for Toronto and they make great donuts!

very good. Notice how most people ignored it, but someone has to be the little boy in the crowd - right? Only kidding Dave.

As for Tim Horton's, they are bloody everywhere. Yep, he was a hockey player who opened up a chain of coffee and doughnut shops. Not particulraly good coffee, but very, very popular nonetheless. Everyone you ever go to is jammed. His wife's a bit bitter though. She sold the Tim Horton's franchise to Tim's partner Ron Joyce in 1974 following her husbands untimely death for a snip at $1 million. Following a very aggressive expansion and marketing plan, the franchise is now worth an estimated $2.75 billion.

A bounty is also my favorite "candy" - I have friends/relatives bring them over whenever I can along with those huge boxes of PG tips. Somethings you just can't live without!

Worked in the States for three years and vowed never again to live in a Country that does not have Marmite, HP Sauce and PG Tips.
