Welcome! Your other hobbies sound really really interesting. I bet people ask you lots of questions about it at parties.

Thanks Katie, they do. It gets tiring.
Uhm... I've got to go with Marmite. Sorry Doc, but I just love the stuff =D
(Especially when it's 3 inches thick on toast!)
Oni, really? what's that all about then?

just googled marmite, its apparently a bi-product of beer brewing, donated kindly by the bass brewery.
some amusing comments on The Marmite FAQ:
"Note: it is generally spread very thinly because of its strong flavor—don't use it like jam. It has drug-like qualities; the more you eat, the thicker you need to spread it to get the same mouth-burning effect. Some people have even called it addictive."
apparently marmite, vegemite, cenovis (swiss version?), and nattou (fermented soybeans <3) are really all pretty similar. don't see how you could compare them to nutella though! the taste is completely different...
and! apparently the Inquisition is some big thing they had once a month to gather up all the counterculture welsh kids and let them hang out together for a weekend

Thanks, I've always loved it, haha =]
Oni, that was really informative... Does that mean that if I keep eating it really thickly, I'll end up just spooning out of the jar to be able to taste it? Hmm....
Doc, you can't do that, I'm lactose intolerant, it's make me, like, die =/ lmao.

Heh, I guessed that Doc could be a Loki advocate, lmao.
Marmite is great =]
I had some on toast this morning, and tried feeding it to the dog. Needless to say, it was left on the floor, haha.
