Mark Arram (Sly to my Reggie) Died Last Saturday

My best friend dropped dead on Saturday.


Our relationship was so full of love and our 25 years together so full of laughs and music and discussion that I feel I have so much to be thankful for.


Every week like clockwork he would turn up on my doorstep and we would work together. His creativity was astounding and often challenging, sometimes destroying as much as he created. But much survived the creative process, some of which has been posted up on this forum over the recent years.


He was a deeply funny guy and a loving friend.


Sly is dead, Long Live Sly!

Mark was also the founder of the East Dulwich Writers' Group and a close personal friend. His creative output was stupendous and his take on life was unique. We're still reeling. Hugs to you, Reggie. You're doing him proud. Mark would approve.

    • Please understand that I am not doubting the word of anyone who has posted here with problems with bought-in prepared meat, but (I am old) uncooked meat (perfectly 'good' meat) does smell often, we are too used to shrink wrapped and chilled supermarket meat which can be almost scent free - so we are surprised when 'butcher's' meat does smell (and often, if it is uncooked, quite strongly). Indeed game which is high can smell quite strongly, and not in a good way to our 21st C sensibilities, without being off - as in food poisoning off. Certainly prepared meat, when cooked, should smell enticing, and not at all bad - so the experiences quoted above are certainly very worrying - but younger people reading this should not be concerned, particularly, if fresh (raw) meat they have bought from e.g. a proper butchers has a smell to it. Which is not to say that something which smells rank shouldn't be a point of complaint. Even the smell of high-ish game, if left unwrapped, should dissipate once unwrapped. If it increases however it may be  cause for concern. But raw beef or lamb in the joint can often smell of something which isn't necessarily particularly nice, without it being worrying. It will tend to cook with more flavour.
