On the principle of never put off until tomorrow anything you can possible leave until the day after. whistle:

I find if you put things off 'til tomorrow it often turns out that they didn't need doing anyway.
The "wot" was more directed at TMR.

Isn't it supposed to be a take on the Sopranos?

Biscuit maker Fox's is to launch a TV campaign fronted by an animated character dubbed a "danda", a cross between a dog and a panda.
Fox's came up with the cross-breed using CGI digital technology in order to avoid any legal issues with Fox's Glacier Mints' polar bear Peppy.
The TV campaign, the first by ad agency Mother since it won the Fox's biscuits business late last year, introduces Vinnie the "wise-guy Italian American" panda/dog who extols the virtues of company's "biscwits" as the "good stuff".
Vinnie, who has black-and-white colouring like a panda and a face like a dog, has been developed by the animation team at agency MPC, who worked on Disney's The Chronicles of Narnia.
Steven Hopkins, a strategist at Mother London, said that the ambiguous nature of Vinnie was designed to avoid conflict with Peppy the polar bear and fulfil a wider strategic remit for Fox's biscuits.
It is thought that Fox's biscuits is not allowed to use a bear to represent its products.
"The theory is that the [biscuits] category is kind of naughty but nice, a luxury treat, an emotional thing not a product centred on a rational category," Hopkins added.
"Rivals talk of ingredients. Our theory is consumers don't think about that. [We] want to reflect the entertainment end of the category … a higher class of naughtiness," he said.
The £5m campaign, which includes the first TV ad by Fox's in nearly two years, aims to reinforce the company's position as a premium brand in its battle with rivals including United Biscuits' McVitie's brand.
Hopkins said that the agency felt the message being communicated in the Fox's ad should be "hard to rationalise".
