Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Hmm, maybe I'm getting confused. I used to have Eurosport as part of my TV package a few years back, so it may actually have been on there ... in which case yes it probably is the same guy! :lol:

Edit after a bit of googling: Sid Hoare? That name rings a bell.

Interesting. Guess it means percentages of lactose-intolerance don't mean that much...don't correspond to the effects of lactose-intolerance. On the other hand, which does exist, is that no one there drinks milk (i mean in quantities that it's drank here, the diet is entirely different - my cholesterol was normal there whreas here it's something of an enigma) or eats much cheese. But in my experience, those who do eat cheese suffer from no adverse side-effects.

there's a saying in finnish, btw, which translates roughly into:
lie - gross lie - statistics

Cheese is processed to some extent anyway, so it's likely not going to have the same effect aside from in more extreme cases.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

And a recent study showed that 67% of statistics are made up, anyway.

Ah, the old ones are the best...

That would be assuming there's anything even remotely resembling real cheese in a Cheesy Wotsit. :twisted:
