Used to get this floury ciabatta with mozzarella, basil and tomato from across the road every day when we had offices on Guildford High Street. I can taste it now - and that was 20 years ago...
Sometimes living in the sticks sucks.

... go to Guildford one day and get one, and have a pint of Old Peculiar or whatever, and then think to yourself, Thank God I don't have to stick around all day, though.

...while you're at it, give me a shout and I'll even join you (I'm only down the road from Guildford) and we can call it a "business lunch" and make that sarnie a business expense at the same time

Sadly, Google reveals said premises have been taken over by an "iconic Seattle based coffeeshop chain" some time in the past 20 years.
How things change. Haven't seen "iconic" used in the sense of "tax-dodging" before.

... I know I'm guilty of off-topic too here, but two or three or four of us have been bantering gaily off-topic for ages now on this one, but nobody's been deleted like I was - TWICE - on the threads today for such idle banter.
And as for off-topic ... look around, it's everywhere. Maybe you should direct your zeal to Big Blue ads/resources/marketing things?
Oh no ... I'm being pulled, it's happening, I can feel it coming on ...

... I now see "Big Blue" has been pulled out too from threads various. Not a word from the OP, either. Smart guy. It just goes to prove what Oscar Wilde said, There's no such thing as bad publicity. Although he said that when he was hobnobbing with the great and the good, before he was sent to the slammer to sew mailbags for a few years after some very bad publicity indeed.
At least I'm not alone on this one. It'd been years since I'd been dissed for being naughty.
