  1. What is the breaded item ? and is the slice of lemon a clue ? my guess would be a piece of fish with very nice looking chips .
  2. I never have to worry about putting weight on old'un it was losing weight that I was getting concerned about , I have just had my bath and within a pound I was exactly the weight as I was a week ago which I am happy with , I don't often eat the whole plate full that is shown in the photo , my dog look forward to whatever I leave and I am sure he would put some weight on if he didn't get the amount of exercise he get at the moment , most of my working life I was 38 inch waist and went around 14 stone , I was already losing a little weight when my wife was still here , this was mainly in my arms with me no longer doing manual work and wasn't eating so much , now I am around 12 and a half stone with a 36 in waist which is now a little loose , 34 is to tight and 36 like I say is a bit to big . so at the moment all is good and hopefully it will stay like that .

  4. That certainly do and that was the intention , when the rest of the meal is falling apart in places then the lintel gravy give it the added strength to get it back on track .😋 While the Pigeon shooting reports are slow in coming on these cold and dull days then we try and lift the gloom on a long Winters Saturday night , no malice is never intended and all we try and do is to produce a solid meal to keep you going during these gloomy cold days , once you start to neglect yourself then it is hard to get back to some form of a normal life , we all get knocks in life and I always think it is better to make a mistake by trying then not trying at all in the first place . MM
  5. Yea Simon sent me a bottle of the finest co-op Red top milk to try , God above know what the contents were , I will ask Simon but the answer might be a while in coming A touch of Irish humour
  6. You know as well as anyone we mustn't start a Cat nicking thread That's the way you tell em , can you remember who he was
  7. I somehow knew there would be a but , both the sausages were done together and one was put on the plate upside down so to speak , some people might had liked them slightly less done so they would have had a choice , even though they were both the same , I think the company that produced them were called Catnic so with you in the building trade you could see how easy it was to make a spelling mistake
  8. Maybe I was ready and looking forward to it but yes it was nice and tasty , I have been cutting down the time on the steam veg and even 10 minutes seem long enough for how I like them , that is putting in boiling water to begin with so they start steaming straight away , the main meal is the other way round as I am now adding 10 minutes and haven't burnt anything YET Two positive feed backs , Wow , I might start takeaways soon but only in a 5 mile radius from mine , even that might be difficult as the North Sea is only a mile or so away , mind you a Mermaid might fancy a nice English sausage ........ in gravy of course THANKS mossy
  9. If you have one that you can't fit in and think it might fit my criteria then I might just be your man , the shooting finish in two weeks time so I will have a bit more time , the two stents I had fitted should give me more energy and with my new teeth I can now eat a Banana , minus the skin of course , they need to like gun dogs , be able to set out a minimum of 12 thawed out Wood Pigeons and strong enough to carry the gear and any Pigeons that I manage to shoot , non smokers , drugs and drink , if you think of anything that I have forgot then please feel free ask , I can easily take them off road as in our county we haven't got that many roads that go anywhere .
  10. Believe it or not , I always feel a bit wary when I am in the passenger seat and someone else is doing the driving , my foot is often going on the floor to start braking when the driver haven't even moved his foot , maybe I am slowing up in my ole age
  11. I won't keep you waiting , far to hungry for that 😋, after being out in the cold I fancied something warm and filling , certainly not a salad , everything was ready in 40 minutes , English Pork sausages in Lintel and Onion gravy , Leeks , Organic Cabbage , Broccoli ,Carrots and Caulie , the gravy is now always made with the water from the steam veg , for afters I had Rhubarb crumble and custard , all in all a very nice tea and very little on the plate was wasted .
  12. We were a bit warmer down South , or should I say a little bit warmer , when I was coming home this afternoon it got to the dizzy height of three degrees , it go up and down like a yo yo lately . roll on when it go up and stay up , we are talking the temperature of course
  13. Please take note Simon , I gave the panel a valid reason why the long awaited evening meal you a bit longer than expected , these things happen and I should know because to get slightly Brown chips so Mr J K D don't leave me a negative feedback I have to leave them in the oven twice as long as the instructions state , I dread to think what my electric bill is going to be when the postman put it in my letterbox but then again if it keep the critics happy then it is worth every penny , or should I say pound . No I am sorry the kittle was steaming away before I put the P C on as I had a walk all the way around my marshes this afternoon and I never even pulled the trigger , a few odd Teal got out the dykes but I didn't really want any and with the dykes on the low side my dog would had got his bottom half covered in mud and to get out it would had been a vertical climb so I let them carry on with life , and after a lot of sniffing and tail wagging my dog finally put up a Hen Pheasant , as I don't shoot Hens down the marsh then again that went away without any lead shot trying to catch it up , time I got back a little after four it was either getting very cold or I was feeling it , I will very shortly be putting my tea on and as a clue it will not contain any Chicken .
  14. You might well be right J K D , but when you reach a certain age then you are entitled to a tea break or to consume something slightly stronger in this cold weather , you know what they used to say that , all good things are worth waiting for and you know as well as anyone that you cannot rush a good tradesman , it can and will take as long as need be
  15. Yes quite a good resemblance , also now Rod have turned 80 there wasn't a great deal in the age difference , MM
