What do you all like on your toast? I like it either: plain, butter/margarine, jam. Probably some more things that I haven't tried.

Re: Take Me Out
Hiya. Take Me Out's ok... I would rate it 7/10. I'm not like those people (probably you - as you said it is brilliant) who rush to go and watch it even if they are, say, in the middle of a close game on Apterous. I just watch it if I have time, and most of the time just finish off a game on Apterous...
