Today, I’m just going to do a quick round up of this week’s Chat magazine. Yesterday contained the best stuff. Today’s is really the stuff I feel I can’t let you go on without knowing.
This stuff is important for your life.
First up, the dog that was so fat it looked like a big pillow. Look.
The caption next to the second photo says, wittily, “Does my bum look big in this?” And yes, big fat dog. The answer is yes. Your bum does look big in that.
The vet lady who took it in and vowed to then it’s life around describes how she put him on a diet and eventually he lost some weight and then, like a human, he had to have an operation to cut off his hangy skin after losing all the weight.
Ridiculous.
Next, the couple who wears the same clothes and have some for 35 years. I’m pretty sure most people know about them as they’ve been in lots of magazines and newspapers but this picture is something new that I’ve not seen before. Them in matching jarmies. Check it out!
Looking good….
And last but not least, I couldn’t have put away this week’s Chat without telling you all about the latest value for money in the world of food. Each week, Chat do a column which reviews one item of food from all different shops or brands and grades them out of 10. Well, this week, there’s one which I know you’ll all be itching to hear the results for….
Yup. Tinned spaghetti. Can we get a shout out for TINNED SPAGHETTI, my friends?! Woooooop! Who loves tinned spaghetti? Waaaaaah! ME! Me!
And in case you’re wondering, Tesco won this one. Their 28p tinned spaghetti was described as a ‘teatime treat.’ If I served up tinned spaghetti in my house and told everyone it was a ‘treat’, I think I’d have a mutiny on my hands.
A teatime treat?! Spare me this madness.

They certainly are A treat for the one who doesn’t have to cook that night….beans on toast are also on the ‘treat menu’ at my place:)

Oo, clever. I didn’t think of it that way. Maybe there IS a place in the world for tinned spaghetti….

I needed my regular dose of Chat, made my day! How can anyone allow their pet to get that fat! Cruelty through kindness. Loved the matching clothes couple, never seen them before.

Yeh, it said the owners parental took care of him a lot and they just used to treat him all the time with little sweets and things. Matching clothes couple are fab. They’ve been wearing the same clothes for 35 years. She makes them all and they have 6 wardrobes of matching clothes now. When he’s out of town, she packs his bag and tells him what to wear on each day so they still match!

Tinned spaghetti is my pet hate, and I haven’t even tasted it… though my better half loves it – no taste !!

Tinned spaghetti. I just don’t get it. Why would I want pasta that’s been cooked ages ago and sitting in a tin on a shelf for weeks?
