Topped with grilled cheese and finished with salsa, sour creme and jalapenos. Why I like it so much: Because the flavours go well together and pretty much making a party in your mouth. My favourite main: Redneck Ribs from Lone Star. Ingredients: Porky pig ribs blanched in honey and spices. Blasted in the lone star then piled high & smothered in their world famous hoisin, orange & sesame seed sauce. Why I like it so much: It is the definition of heavenly, I can't describe how good it is. You have to try for yourself to understand. My favourite dessert: Jack Daniels chocolate fudge pudding. Ingredients: A rich, self-saucing chocolate fudge pudding, laced with Jack Daniel's. Served with choc sauce whipped cream and vanilla ice cream. Why I like it so much: It melts...

Yay or Nay: Prizegivings in school

Prizegivings in school Pros: -It makes students strive for success. -It makes the students more inclined to do their work to a high standard. -It rewards the students who deserve it and makes them feel like it was worth doing. Cons: -The children who don't get awards feel bad, as if they aren't good enough. -It puts down students who are unable to complete their work to as high a standard as the students who do get awarded.
