Once while in England I put a half-eaten kebab in my purse, and it stank for weeks. Even after I came home.

And I didn't even finish the thing. I left it in Ace's friend's house. And HE's a vegetarian, so it didn't even get eaten by someone else. So I stuck it in my pruse for nothing. :mad:

so how do you pronounce gyro? I say it as gee-row and not "ji-row".

and damn bob, I'm freakin starving right now and have two hours till lunch break. I'm glad your backpack isn't here cause I'd probably start drooling. I'm partially there thinking of the scent of a lamb gyro.:(

i'm pretty sure it's pronounced "yee-ro" but every time i try to order one at a greek place they say "jye-ro"? and i say "yeah"

I think a giro here is like a form for benefits like child care or something.

I'm struggling with the idea of what that could be.

Though I accidentally swallowed my l'oreal demaq earlier so my taste buds are probably dead for at least another 4 hours.

My tongue feels clean though.

one of these (http://www.hungrymag.com/wp-content/images/gyros.jpg) little bastards

they taste so good

i had a gyro from a lebanese place once, it was something completely different tasting. still very good though.

that link doesn't work for me

i think this is one of those situations where americans and british people call the same things by different names and then the british people get pissy and yell at me for slaughtering the language

here, shish kebab (although i think we spell it kabob sometimes) is on a stick, like this: http://www.rajhale.co.uk/Photo_Gallery/Chicken_Shish-Kebab.jpg

gyro is the thing in the pita i just posted

i don't think we have a thing called doner kebab here
