    LMAO - me too (if I had £45 to spare)! Foska has some wicked stuff.
    Drink coffee and do stupid things faster with more energy.

    Foska have a winter sale on. The jackets are reduced.

    Now, how do I justify this? And do I get a Welsh one or go for the full Marmite? Quite a few of the jackets are in a women's cut which makes resistance even harder.

    Kewell jerseys... but... I have to say it...

    Vegemite! Where are the vegemite jerseys?
    And why endorse Marmite when Vegemite is so much smoother and tastier???

    Mmmmm.... vegemite and cheese on fresh white bread... vegemite on crispbreads... vegemite on malt grain toast with melted butter... mmmm... vegemite....


    Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
    "I will try again tomorrow".

    I think Vegemite looses its flavour when transported to the Northern hemisphere. A bit like Guiness which, I am told, has to be drunk in Dublin for the true flavour (best use for Guiness as far as I am concerned is in chocolate cake).

    They do a NZ flag road jersey although there is no matching jacket.

    Heh, I wonder if Nutella is banned in DK as well. That's where I first tried it, before it showed up in the US

    I'm in the "tried it, hated it" category. My British father loves the stuff. My mom and I don't see how it can be classified as food.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.
