    Worse than that - I've bought CDs, only to find I already have them in my collection. Even worse, I have inadvertently bought a CD from a charity shop, the same disc that I previously donated.

    I have a weakness for chocolate raisins, don't buy them often though.

    I was on a couple of bags per week until a couple of months ago, got sick of 'em. Since moved over to chocolate peanuts, sick of them too now. maybe time to switch back, or move to jars of cockles, a previous fad.

    A tray of mussels is nice now and then. Plenty of mayo & pepper, plus some decent crusty bread to go with it.

    A Nepali sherpa has scaled Mount Everest for a record 26th time, breaking his own previous record set last year, a government official says.

    Kami Rita Sherpa, 52, scaled the 8,849-metre mountain on Saturday along the traditional south-east ridge route leading 10 other Sherpa climbers.

    “Kami Rita has broken his own record and established a new world record in climbing,” Taranath Adhikari, director general of the Department of Tourism in the capital of Kathmandu, said on Sunday.


    Some achievement...
