It’s a dream says Bernard"













Bernard Matthews has developed a product to cater for the tastes of young girls. Called Princess Dreams, it is a turkey roll with a picture of a fairy princess on the outside and a crown in the center of each slice.


A f**king cynical marketing nightmare, I'd say!

It is certainly very strange. Will Camilla be eating it at the wedding or will she go for the turkey twizzlers?

She may try putting them on her head.

My god, they'll try anything!


If it was horse meat I'd definitely send Camilla a pack...

They do it because it sells. I am not a mother yet but I hate to think what it will be like taking them to the supermarket. Do any of you have that kind of trouble?

When mine were small I used to avoid taking them at all costs.  I also think small children and elderly couples should be banned from supermarkets on Saturdays!  (I'll get my coat)

Why do the elderly always go to supermarkets at lunchtime? Are they deliberately trying to dither in the way of people hoping to nip in and out on their break because they know you can't be mean to old people? Devious old sods.  I used to notice it when I travelled to work by bus too - they'd all come on at 8.30 and hold everyone up. If they waited an hour they could use their pass and go for free!!

Here the supermarkets are full of elderly people at lunchtimes but they are not shopping they are in the canteen having lunch.


They get a hot meal and get to sit with their friends and don't have to bother with the cooking or washing up so maybe that's why they do it?

I think supermarkets should feed all pensioners for free every lunch time and I think everyone over 60 should travel on public transport anytime of day for free. Tv licences should be free for all over 60's and someone should go help them do their gardens. What do you think of my ideas?

So what you are saying is that YOU want everything for free?
