Anyone who finds gluttony repulsive is hereby advised to stay well clear of an all you can eat establishment if I'm in it. No dish is safe. Going on an all inclusive holiday would be plain scary. I treated my colleague Lisa to a fine display of feeding prowess during a recent stay at Southwark Travelodge, sampling everything from the breakfast buffet. Fry up, cereal, toast, yoghurt, pastries, fruit, Babybel, orange juice, coffee. Even the scrambled eggs made from powdered egg. No dish left untouched.
I cook myself large portions of food glorious food most evenings, solo eating for two basically. Nouvelle cuisine it most definitely ain't. On the flipside I eat a balanced diet, lots of veg, not a lot of processed foods, snacks aside of course, and do a fair bit of exercise. Me and Swedemount have been out this evening even. Nevertheless my BMI is firmly rooted in the red so the diet test was always going be a foregone conclusion. “At the end of a typical meal, how often do you feel like you haven’t had enough to eat?” All the time (go back for seconds). “If you pass a plate of biscuits or a bowl of crisps, how often will you pick one up?” Always (bloody rude not to). “Do you eat large portion sizes?” Always (no shit, Sherlock). “When you’re out at a meal with friends, do they all seem to get full before you, even when you’re eating the same thing?” All the time (finish other people's plates clearly).
Funnily enough such consumption patterns have a name according to the Beeb: Constant craver. What would KD say? I apparently have 'a strong biological drive to eat' so that's my excuse from now on. My biological drive instructed me to have a slice of cake, a big bag of crisps, a portion of cheesy chips on the side. I confess. Mea Culpa. In fact I reckon I also have a strong biological drive to shop, to drink, to spend money. And you shouldn't deny what comes naturally to you.
Step forward one pair of KG by Kurt
Geiger boots.
I also satisfied my strong biological
drive at Topman, coming away with a light blue short sleeved shirt
and a black polo shirt for a bargain 12 quid in total.
That's me done with the January sales I
reckon. The shops should hopefully be resuming full price regimes any
day now anyway and that's like garlic to a vampire for me. At the very least it pushes me back to Primark. Mind you
when nature calls, the constant craver obeys. It really would be rude
not to. Constant craving has always been after all. KD says so.
The boots are divine. I would have bought them if you hadn't. Le shopping par excellence Niklas x
