Just to leave the beer topic for just one second,only for a second, you can go back to it again in a mo when I've said what I've come to say - promise!
My view of marmite:
I love it.
Okay - back to the beer.

Of course now you've revealed what bad taste you've got your opinion on beer will now be regarded as null and void.

im on the verge of making new h2g2 personalities to make up numbers
perhaps you should extend it to vegemite too

Vegemite??? No! Have a separate poll, maybe. But do not insult the Marmite!
Oh and on the beer front; there is nothing wrong with it. Admittedly, I end up drinking spirits, but that's normally coz they never have any *decent* s there. I don't like John Smiths of lager, so I'm normally out of options!

John Smiths and Worthington's are poo - it's no wonder everyone drinks lager these days. I'm personally not a big fan of Bass either.
Why are there not more places with quality bitters like 6X, Directors and the like?

mmmmm directors - yummy!!
They serve it most places up here (Newcastle), I guess you must be in a different bit of the UK. (Assuming they don't export it and you're somewhere else in the whole world)

They will absolutely not win!!! Marmite is the food of the winged ones in heaven themselves (as opposed to being the food of the horned one)
Marmite forever! *waving small banner*

I read an article today in a magazine which had a title similar to "second person plural". It was about a year old and written by someone with a reputation as a whole body health expert. As a consequence, I can state with confidence that all yeast rich products (beer and Marmite in particular), cheese and fatty foods, excluding fish, are guaranteed to make you go bald. However, if you take care to buy a particular shampoo at umpteen quid a go, take a particular capsule £16 for 60 and do some other things which I've forgotten, oh that's it - regularly massage one and a half tablespoons of some expensive nut lotion (!) into your scalp - you may (only may) be able to preserve your flowing locks.
I've been eating Marmite for longer than I can remember, cheese, bacon and fried eggs for longer than that; drinking beer for 40+ years and everyone keeps mithering me to get my hair cut. Good job I didn't know earlier what I know now.
I do have something which will prevent me from losing my hair, it's a large plastic bag which I propose to carry with me, always.
