    I like my chooks (chickens)

    Agreed, I think Mega should be up before the beak ( bad pun, and probably a tad colloquial ) for child cruelty! ;) ¥

    I was just joking, but it'd be *very* cool if it ever did happen. The "congratulations" was entirely serious though, you've worked hard to get where you are now :) ¥

    food The Drunken Chef

    Apart from the lack of booze ( at least you marinated the pork in Newky Brown, so that *sorta* counts ) that looks pretty damned good! I'm gonna have to try these myself, now I know what they are :D ¥

    Noooooo, that'd just make me a paulky clone .... ohhh, scrap that, his order is "drink, drink, drink, drink, kill kids ( and associated kids ), because they didn't believe me when I said 'it may be a smidge warm' drink, drink, drink" :angelic look: ¥

    contest February Throwdown

    Ok, february normally involves the first ( and hardiest ) seedlings of the year ... garlic/onion/peas/beans/cabbage ( note all these require "bugger all heat" ... unlike my chillis under growlamps :P )... tad late to sow them for a february throwdown though :P. At the same time you also have the...

    The state of economy. . .

    It's not just "Rome" and "US", but it *is* what you've expressed ... I'm 44, I'm liable to be around to watch the next degeneration :( And still my country sits back in apathy :( ¥

    The state of economy. . .

    Yeah, makes me wonder how far we are off raising money through bonds in UK :( ... we already pay a stupid amount, per day, in interest on "money spent that hasn't been earned" Maybe my mum and dad brought me up wrong, but I was taught to only spend what was in my pocket and to earn what I...

    The state of economy. . .

    I, for one, would be *really* interested in your "non-political" answer ...I realise it'd be diluted by removing politics. Personally, I think our country ( UK ) is governed by "lessons learnt in USA ... f**k the 'voter'" ... and our populace is equally apathetic ( we, at least, can claim the...

    Nowadays you're unable to meander across this side of the pond and taste *real* fish 'n' chips because of all the arses trying to save _my_ health, based on _their_ lives, has killed that ... the same people are probably members of the PC group where they decide you can't say shit because it...

    food The Drunken Chef

    I still remember the days when our fish 'n' chip shops used lard. I couldn't give a shit what other people say, they *did* taste better then ... especially when wrapped in newspaper with toxic inks ;) Go for it, looks great so far and I'm slim enough to not care about the calories :D In my...

    food The Drunken Chef

    Because I had no idea what Carnitas were I googled it, found an interesting alternative which didn't use lard but had a similar outcome by cooking the pork in fluid ( orange juice & water ) and then reducing it until they were just left with pork fat for the "crisp them up" bit ( @link Carnitas...

    Tomatoes grow like weeds ;) We use 77 plug cells to start stuff, all in "soil", barring the initial outlay it probably works out a lot cheaper. ¥

    Hmmmmm, based on your pics it looks like I'm confusing my black peas with my black eyed peas :-S my excuse is that I'm blonde :D Looks like a great dish SL and I'm still going to try something similar the next time I do black peas ;) ¥

    Black Eyed Peas

    We can get them in the markets, our nearest decent one is about 60 miles away though. It's the big supermarkets where we can't get them even though we can get all sorts of other crap from around the world ;) Like you ours are dried and we can buy them by the sack, which is what we tend to do...
