One of the longest words in the dictionary is pneumonoultramicroscopicsiliciovolcaniconiosis (and yes I did that by heart) another being floccinoccinihilipilification but you can also have antidisestablishmentarianism...so there! The first I believe is a disease of the lungs. There are probably others but I can't be arsed to check

I used to like Creme Eggs but then last year they changed the taste of it and now it is once in a blue moon I'd have one. How many did he actually eat in that time?

One of the "Bond Girls" was once a man. That was Barry Cossey who became Caroline Cossey or Tula and appeared in 'For Your Eyes Only' as one of the hot bikini girls and also carved out a very good career as a model posing for various magazines. She battled for years to be recognised as a woman -this was before transgender people were finally accepted. I think she got married as well but in the eyes of the law was still classed as a man. She also wrote a book about it. If you look at her pictures both normal model and naked you'd never know.

He actually did eat 6 of them in one minute....
There would have been a time when I would have fancied having a crack at that record, but as you alluded to Greeny, the taste of Creme Eggs since the recipe change has made them plasticky, and horribly sickly...sadly Cadbury’s chocolate right across the range is for me, not a patch on what it once was.
