“You link EVERYTHING to food!” / My love for Nando’s just grows and grows

Me: Did you hear that that Assad guy – Syria’s President – gave an interview to a US TV channel and said he didn’t feel guilty cos he hadn’t killed anyone? He said he hadn’t ordered any violence and he didn’t own the country or control the military. That means he’s either a) a liar or b) a puppet. They’re saying it’s going to end up like Egypt.

Calle: Yeah, it’ll be like Cuba all over again. And Gaddafi – wasn’t he originally a freedom fighter?

Me: Oh that Nando’s advert 🙂

Calle: You link everything to food!!
