"Horsemeat scandal changing habits" followed by "Tesco buys Giraffe". Bravo.

When I saw the headline "Tesco buys Giraffe restaurants", my first thought was "I knew there was something other than horse in those burgers".

I heard that Tesco bought Giraffe restaurant, so look out for their new range of pies and ready meals.

First StableGate, now this?
Probably not the first to write in along these lines, but hopefully in the top seven?

So comedian Dave Allen was "Born outside Dublin". Er, weren't most of the people in the world?
