Angry BBLB succumbs to Woo Woo
Reading so called auras?

What kind of woo-woo rubbish is that?

Where is the hard and fast science on that?

BBLB is just a bit of fluff and should be viewed with that in mind.

Sadly it used to be entertaining fluff before Dermot left.

Sweat them down with a little bit of butter, garlic and cream. Delicious.

Dont think there is any hard and fast science mate, and its no more woo woo than other wierd and wonderful beliefs like oh christianity or some such.

The human body does produce an energy field, dont know if people can see it. By it is visible using Gas Discharge Visualisation etc apparently. Try Kirlian Photography or Korotkov's research for stress.

Leeks are also great veg for soups, potato and leek being the obvious but they can be added to a great many other soups to enhance the flavour, member of the onion family.

I wish people would get over Dermot, it's not his show anymore and it never will be.

Its George's now.

It isn't as bad as you lot make out, its very much better than that chav fest BBBM but BBLB want to deliver all the latest news and that, tbh lately I'm finding it hard to watch in the sense that it seems everything is a joke to them now.

George just flirts with Emma, Emma goes on about the *****ing weather, Zig and Zag just but in, and then George takes the piss out of Big Brother and tries to be funny.


It isn't bad but it isn't as good as it was last year and thats saying somthing.
