Why is Jamie Oliver your hero? He'd better have done something spectacularly good to outweigh being partly responsible for Toploader being on the radio all the time a couple of years ago. |

Ah you are out of the country John but everyone in the UK will know
Jamie Oliver has launched a massive campaign throughout London feeding 60,000 schoolkids proper food rather than the shite the government has been paying for. Not only is it better for them, but it's been lowering cases of asthma and helping them all concentrate better while being less hyperactive.
It's caused such an outcry that even Tony Blair has stood up and taken notice, and it's becoming a big political issue.

its true i'm afraid john, although much of his show was some kind of celebrity mag 'at home with olivers' crap that was ultimately as self serving as it was painful to watch. still, it's good that we found a use for him where there was none before.

Oi Captain! You can't get all pious about the standard of food in schools when as a kid your "diet consisted of sweee - eeee - eeeets"  _________________ "we wanted to make a sound like penguins going to the post office to collect their pension money" |

i'll ave you know that the packed lunches my mum made me for school were abnormally healthy which i hated at the time but am glad of now.
i am, it has to be confessed, one of the only people i know who enjoyed the seventies primary school dinners, stodge and green custard. when they introduced canteen food in the early eighties (burgers and chips) my mum switched us to apples and raisins and butties.
i used to swallow a whole tangerine in one go to get attention.

Me and my brother used to have contest: how fast can you eat a tangerine by throwing bits of it in the air and catching it in your mouth, my record was 19 seconds. None of us ever tried to catch a whole one at once.

jamie oliver is top - agree the here am i at home wiv my wife was 'orrible and the fact he drives a FUCKING C*NT of a car (a 4x4) pisses me off but he was great when he did that programme with under privellidged people he tried to turn into chefs and his latest thing on school dinners is ace. he is a passionate man and i loved it when when he walked out on clinton. top respect.
other heros at the moment are
mark sewotka (he is FOR THE PEOPLE! man! and, better than that, he is one of 'em!)
john pilger - never stops does he? passionate and always spot on. made me give up reading newspapers 'til he had that little stint at the mirror. |
