• Food
  • American hard gums
  • jelly beans
  • scampi and lemon Knick-Knacks
  • mashed potato with far too much butter and cheese
  • fried egg sandwiches
  • white chocolate mice - which don't qualify as chocolate, see below
  • (chocolate does not count, it's a health food)
• Music
  • Status Quo played very loud (It doesn't really matter which track, they all use the same three chords anyway)
  • The Darkness
  • assorted hymns, legacy of a chapel upbringing
  • almost anything from the Sixties (e.g., and at random, Build Me Up Buttercup, Simon Smith and His Amazing Dancing Bear, Israelites) will have me singing along out of tune
• Reading matter
  • Take a Break, Chat and similar 'true-story' magazines, which I never (well, hardly ever) buy, but can't resist reading in the shop
  • The Sookie Stackhouse novels
  • The News of the World
