No, totally bang on there. Overpriced, heavily processed and packaged supermarket food.
My ex used to love Richmond's and when I was frying them they smelled exactly the same as tripe. Used to make my stomach turn.
Again i think Apple is overhyped.
Sad to say but i think Doc Martin's are overrated. They used to make some quality shoes. I grew up wearing docs. But the last few pairs I've bought. The soles have come off and the quality seems to have dropped.
Apple - phone and computers
Dyson - about 10 years old now
B&O - 1980s - haven't tried anything more recent
Gibson - 2 acoustics
Marshall - er… TSL!
Microsoft Office - 2011 version on DVD
French cars - Renault and previously Citröen
- and I like all of them, except possibly for the Marshall. They all seem fairly well-designed, well-made, reliable and do what they're supposed to do well. I would admit that the first three do have a certain 'trendy design over value for money' aspect.
Wasn't very impressed with my Vans shoes, the soles wore through very quickly and now they leak when I walk anywhere wet. But they're very comfy, and I may yet buy some more.

As for MS Office, it's really not that bad, most people just have no idea how to work it so do things wrong and then blame the machine (i'm looking at you, all who complain about images moving around without changing the text wrapping options...). If you *really* want trouble, you should try the Mac version of Office 2013. Almost all the functionality is there from the windows version, but everything is in a slightly different place so it is literally hell on earth trying to get anything done. 2016 is thankfully much better.
And Nando's is excellent. Some of you lot are odd.
There I said it.
As for Sony, I have a 26YO Sony Stereo which is still working without fault. Ok a couple of push button have broken off (tape deck) but the unit is working fine.
Richmond sausages are the only brand I can eat without making myself sick (don't contain stuff I can't eat).

My other son will only eat Marks and spencers sausages. You see, they arent just ordinary sausages...they are, thick, meaty, wholesome, tasty M&S sausages. Mmm. Sausage. Mmmm
i would dearly love to slap him.
Although James Dyson and his 'digital motors' is a close 2nd.
The rest of the time, it's an horrendous and competely daft arrangement.
Try driving a front wheel drive car with over 150BHP through the front wheels....power and direction should not go through the same axle. (unless 4WD of course- and yes, I'd buy an Audi Quattro but no way a front wheel drive version)
Or better still, drive an A6 then a BMW 5 series....no competition.

FWD - no difference, except better than RWD in snow.
4WD - best in snow.
Thus there is no point in RWD at all.

Petrolheads care about these things though and FWD cars are a joyless thing for us.
4WD isn't terrible but you feel like you are rails, which isn't as entertaining as RWD.
I don't care about performance in the snow- it has affected me exactly twice in 15 years of living in the U.K.
RWD is simply more fun.
