Fleggaard Holding is based in Krusaa, Denmark. Just across Germany's northern-most border with Denmark you’ll find an incredible superstore called Fleggaard. There, you can buy everything you need – tubs of gummi bears, cases of wine, industrial strength dishwashing soap – at prices 30% cheaper than you’ll find in Denmark. It is Denmark's Costco, packaged as a German loophole.
You’d be hard-pressed to find a man in Denmark who hasn’t seen and fallen in love with that commercial.
It was geared strictly to men. The ad is real!
Here is a link to an awesome ad:

| AND GOD MADE THE NORTH OF ENGLAND
Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Heaven, God went missing for six days.
Eventually, Archangel Michael found him on the seventh day resting.
He inquired of God, 'Where have you been?'
God pointed downwards through the clouds. Archangel Michael looked
puzzled and said, 'What is it?'
'It's a planet,' replied God, 'and I've put LIFE on it. I'm going to
call it Earth and it's going to be a great place of balance.'
'Balance?' inquired Michael, still confused.
God explained, pointing down to different parts of the Earth.
'For example, North America will be a place of great opportunity and
wealth, while South America is going to be poor; the Middle East over
there will be a hot spot, and Russia will be a cold spot. Over there
I've placed a continent of white people and over there is a continent of
black people.'
God continued, pointing to the different countries.
This one will be extremely hot and arid while this one will be very cold
and covered in ice.'
The Archangel , impressed by God's work, then pointed to another area of
land and asked, 'What's that?'
'Ah,' said God. That's the North of England, the most glorious place on
earth. There are beautiful people, seven Premiership football teams in
the North West alone, and many impressive cities; it is the home of the
world's finest artists, musicians, writers, thinkers, explorers and
politicians. The people from the North of England are going to be
modest, intelligent and humorous and they're going to be found
travelling the world. They'll be extremely sociable, hard-working and
high-achieving, and they will be known throughout the world as speakers
of truth.'
Michael gasped in wonder and admiration but then proclaimed, 'What about
balance God, you said there will be BALANCE!'
God replied very wisely, 'Wait till you see the bunch of s I'm
putting in the South !'

I am back in the warmth of my Castle!.
My alternator is bust apparently, got enough charge to get me home but it is sat outside and refuses to start again
TBH i am happy it happened, our lass is moaning that it is becoming an un-reliable car (its a saab). so i will soon be on the autotrader site looking for a nice new motor
This is now twice i have had problems at that garage. only 6 months ago, some pillock in a renault espace reversed into me there with a caravan hook on his car and trashed my bumper completely.
could turn out alright this mind. i was driving down to Reding for work and now i get my own bed tonight.

At first i thought my new phone was busted.
I wernt popular sat in my car on the phone whilst folk had to drive around me to exit the forcourt!, they must have thought i was a right ignorant get!!

A while since I've been back but the Beeches was always good. Been told the Wiggin Tree has been done up recently.
High Moor Restaurant in Wrightington and Gallimore's up The Wiend.

| The Stables on Millgate (side of the Grand Arcade) is nice, as is the Hinds Head at Heskin and, of course, The Crown at Worthington.

If you mean the Hinds Head in Wrightington then it's now changed hands and is part of a chain. That chain, somewhat ironically, is called 'best british pubs' and it's the worst pub meal I've ever had. Would not recommend it to a Wire.
I really can't recommend the Dicconson Arms enough. It's the one at the top of Appley Lane North on the way to the Wiggin Tree.

They used to have a Spanish kitchen and knocked up some cracking food, but like you said, it changed hands and they stopped serving Spanish food. Only went once afterwards and it wasn't a patch on the previous standard.

It's been a few things recently. It was a taps restaurant and then it became more of a traditional place (Owned by the same people who own the Railway at Euxton). We used to go a lot and I never had a bad meal there. It closed due to lack of passing trade and now it's been taken over by a chain. Nothing against chains particularly, but this one is awful.
Like I said in my previous post. If you want a really good meal, get yourself to the Dicconson Arms.

Ah, that is the reincarnation I was referring to. Had an excellent meal there for Grego's birthday last year, bit gutted to hear it's changed again as that meal was really superb. I will chuck out our once-used loyalty card for it then!!

| Farmers Arms in Eccleston is a good meal, but its not cheap and not much room for big groups. The Farmers arms up the road is also a good meal (two miles between the two). The Owls at Standish is always a good meal, nothing flash but a good meal at a reasonable price and plenty of room for large groups. The Beaches is also good for groups and I have never had a bad meal in there. Can you tell what I like to do at weekends ?

Radio 5 Live reported that Martinez said in the match programme that the state of the pitch was caused by "rugby league commitments".
You would have thought the pitch would be in A1 condition with 11 loads of 5hit being on the pitch every other week sine August.

Maybe someone could confirm this in the programme? Conroy?
