Here's another one I found lurking on the hard-drive.
Enjoy.

I think Menu: Food would be extremely boring
Give me a jumped up chef any day, any place, any cuisine
This toblerone is lovely

Hmmm, yes I guess in the light of the recent French-bashing entry in AWW, using the words "jumped" "up" "French" and "chef" in the same sentence wasn't the wisest thing I've written.
However, this is how the staff felt (the menu is based on a true story!), and the chef was French, and yes, in the opinion of the staff, he was "ow doo you sayyy ... 'jumped-up'?"
Pass us a bit of that Toblerone please.
mmmm, lovely.

And while I'm criticising my own entry, may I say that the opinion implied regarding the chickens is no longer one that I hold (moving from big city to rural farming community don't arf change your mind about some stuff).

Glad you've changed your mind about the chickens

The trouble with this Entry is that you've kind of discouraged your readership from waxing lyrical about it.
So I will just say : Exquisite.

Congratulations, Paff! We may have taken our time over this one but we got there in the end - UG Miners have selected this for inclusion in the UnderGuide
Our QA had nothing but praise for it, describing it as "clever and well executed. Others would have overwritten it, but this is just right. The author's variety of style is refreshing too."
So, a UG Gem Polisher will be along to consult with you about the UG version shortly. Congratulations again!
