Cybercheckout and the Curse of the Chocolate Cake . . .

We had a minute's silence today. All work stopped; we sat at our computers; our eyes flicked over the work on the monitors in front of us, but no work was done. Nothing.

Why?

Sarah brought in Chocolate Fudge Cake. A slice had to be devoured.

A valuable minute was lost by all. We now sit here and think back to what we could have achieved if only we had worked through that one minute. Our new website could have been closer to it's finish; Lisa could have completed her fiddly equestrian work; Keiron could have finished that banner; Drew could have started another email; I could have written another article . . .

Bah! Who am I kidding. IT WAS CHOCOLATE CAKE!

Chocolate fuels the brain. Without it, we can't possible churn out the quality work that we do, and our customer service would suffer dramatically because of it. Chocolate deficiency is a serious matter that needs to be considered in this modern world. People just don't realise this. They think it's a fallacy. But it's twoo, I tell ya! TWOO!!!

Now you can understand why I've decided to title this blog `the Curse of the Chocolate Cake . . .` Am I talking rubbish? Maybe. Does the chocolate induce `running mouth syndrome?` Yes, quite possibly. But it was good, and thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you, Sarah.

If you fancy making your own chocolate cake, to discover the the glorious benefits that it can bring, then check out our fantastic kitchenware range that can help you along the way. (Had to slip in an advert somewhere along the line).

In the mean time, I'm off to have more cake . . . ;D

The Importance of Tea and Biscuits . . .


Everybody has their routine in the morning, and nine times out of ten that routine includes making a cup of tea to kick-start you into the day. Then when you finally get to work, chances are you head straight for the kitchen for another one.

If your work place is anything like ours, then the chances are slim that you will walk out of that kitchen with a single cup of tea. The minds here thrive on tea and caffeine, and if any quality work is to emerge from them throughout the day the brain-cells have to be hydrated. I'm surprised someone hasn't thought of bringing in an intravenous drip.

It's because of this that we have a thing here called `The Dreaded Tea Round!` If someone bravely offers you a tea, then it is expected, upon pain of death, that the favour be returned. But, boy! is there trouble if you make a bad round! So, to save anyone from suffering this wrath, I'm going to explain how to make the perfect cup of cyber-tea or coffee:

With tea, the water is added directly onto the teabag. This in turn is stirred vigorously. Never add the milk before the water. It clouds the tea and prevents you from achieving that perfect golden colour and taste. This is added just before the teabag is about to pass out through dizziness after circling around the cup a hundred times. Add more than a splash but less than half a pint. Your tea should appear to have a perfect body to it now, and will be wonderful when slurped.

With Coffee, use a heaped teaspoon of granules, followed by plenty of milk - don't skimp here! - then add the water. Never add the water before the milk. This burns the coffee, giving it a slight bitter taste. If you use enough coffee and plenty of milk to compensate its strength, then you will have a cup that, too, should appear with plenty of body. The perfect cup of coffee.

And if perfection is what you are after, then I suggest some custard creams for dunking, and one of our kettles to boil the water in. Just don't over-dunk. You'll then have to face the soggy mess as you reach the bottom of the mug.



This is the secret behind Gridstop Ltd, aka cybercheckout's success! It's run by machines fueled by caffeine!

Introduction to our new Kitchenware Range!

Go on! Cook up a masterpiece!

It’s hard to paint a masterpiece when your brushes are old and loosing their bristles. It’s difficult to sew a perfect stitch when your needles are blunt. Therefore it’s not always easy to cook a perfect meal when your kitchen ware is old and of poor quality. With these things working against you, the end result isn’t always easy to reach and is often displeasing.


This is so true, and there are many people out there who don't realise it. How many of you have a "good ol` faithful` pot or pan that you have had for years? You can cook anything in it, and won't part with it. It's the security you like, the knowing that what ever you cook up, the results will be the same. But how do you know you won't get that same result with a new pot or pan?


Some people just don't want to take that leap, but I can assure you that with our new kitchenware range that leap isn't that scary. In fact it's pretty easy, and all you have to do to begin with is visit our link below and have a look at our new fantastic range.






It's not hard and it's certainly not scary.


This range is designed with safety and practicality in mind. How many of you have heard of Bakelite? This is the black plastic coating on the handles, and was the first plastic made from synthetic components. It is famous for it's nonconductive and heat resistant properties, and is a favourite material used in the world of cookware. So when the pan heats up, the handle will remain cool, allowing you to lift it and work with it without the risk of burning your hand.


And for those who don't have Bakelite and Silicon fittings, the special design of the handles will have the same effect.


And what's more, this range is:


  • Dishwasher proof

  • Comes with a life time guarentee on all stainless steel meterial

  • Comes with a one year guarentee on Non-Stick surfaces - and

  • Offers Free Postage and Packaging (*Excludes Postcodes: PH19-PH44, IV, KW, PA20-PA88 and KA27 & KA28 )

So, go on. Whether you're looking for a new, chic designed cookware set, or you are just toying with the idea of having something new, but are dubious with parting with your `good ol` faithful`, just visit our site and have a look.


You'd be amazed.
