Talk about missing the point. Trev didn't go to a high-end supermarket.

They give you a taste in Waitrose? Waitrose is much, much better but it's not fantastic.

To be honest, I never realized how good English cheese is until coming here. The cheese shop that I mentioned earlier was a true revelation. Maybe that's why I'm being a bit demanding wrt Waitrose. If you like cheese and ever drop by London, go check it out. It's like being a kid again in a candy shop.

yes, i'm sure. that was two pretty ridiculous statements in the same thread on the same topic, hardly a coincidence.

well if you don't have self-confidence who else is going to have confidence in you? an unfair statement i know but i'm going to roll with it regardless...

but at least i can back up my self-confidence when it comes to food.

Because we're sensible with our money (getting the house with furniture included was a big help though,i hav to admit).

Off to find good shopping for the other half...the Brooklyn guys suggested redding pheonix, and her friend suggested woodbridge, so i'm on to google now to see what the score is.

You should've tried the Buffallo Mozzarella in Little Italy.

Oh my god, that looks lovely.
My wife better hope I never find a place like that close to me, or our fridge will get stocked to the brim and every meal will be cheese on crackers.

We have some cheese farmers outside town who sell their goods across the street from us at the market once a month, but it's just mild cheddars. The do make a great cheese spread that will make a dietician pop a vein...

It's not self-confidence, it's just plain-old arrogance.

It's just how one sounds when one doesn't give a good goddamn about anyone or anything except oneself. And he's been doing it a long time, so he's quite used to it. You just have to let it roll off of you like water off a duck's back.

i'd say it's 50/50 given the topic.

the other sentense i've quoted is just plain wrong and one that you're not in a position to comment on. for that you would have to know me and you thankfully don't.

I think you should consider what he was replying to. Arkal's post sounded like plain-old patriotic arrogance to me.
