Of course, the comment didn't apply to you ruffers... but, seriously, judging by the the hooligans' comments...it is that bad?...and you really don't recommend I sit in the wrong section? It's a good 15 years since I attended a match...

Hooligans...the lot of you;-)

Just don't try peddling snake oil, Mr. Ben... *giggles mischievously*

Oh ruffers...*looks sad* I've been to lots of matches and never encountered any trouble... Granted, I've never sat in the "wrong" section... Is it really that bad? Am I being a tad naive? *looks pleadingly at ruffers* ...please say "no" *nicks yet more of ????'s tissues*

Thanks for getting back Katie1997...actually I did think you meant three-quarters of a cup, but that still sounded like a heck of a lot of cocoa to me...still, the proof will be in the...erm...pudding...hee hee xxx Burnt toast twice this morning Narnia! The first time I'd nipped outside to set up the lawn mower, the second I was on here...still, it didn't go to waste...the birds have scoffed it all...poor little souls, I sincerely hope I don't give them cancer... oooh dear...what's the natural life span of a sparrow? Marmora Man...that squid recipe sounds delish...very similar to something a Phillipino friend of mine makes.

Do you have any "must dos" before you kick the bucket? One of mine would be: to attend a match at Old Trafford and watch my beloved Red Devils...as, although I've seen them dozens of times, this has only ever been when they've been playing "away" - in London. Moreover, I rather relish attending with someone who supports a different team (hubby is a good candidate as he's an avid Gooner supporter!) and sitting amongst the fans for that team dressed in full Man. U colours complete with red and white bobble hat...just for the sheer hell of it! Pure joy...

Go on Man. U! Wotta header! (AV goalie had NO chance) So far: AV - 1 Man. U - 2 Edited at end of game: *jumps up and down and blows kisses at the RED DEVILS*

2600 AV - 1 Man. U - 1

*smiles* I wasn't sure if I needed (pun!) to tip the contents out onto a floured work surface...but thank you for enlightening me;-). Sounds easier in the bowl. Also sounds like a recipe that could be quite therapeutic...will definitely give it a go when I have a spare...however long it takes. Thanks Declan xx

I've been wondering lately. I am getting old and have suddenly got this unnerving feeling that I haven't actually achieved very much on this earth...compared with others. Now I am frantic that I might snuff it without having had the chance to do something worthwhile or sufficiently fulfilling. To make matters worse, I am unsure as to what I actually mean by worthwhile or fulfilling. Even if I did, is it too late to do anything about it...i.e. is it possible to catch up so to speak? And, if not, how does one go about doing this - given that there never seem to be enough hours in the day? Does anyone else feel like this? Or am I just being melodramatic?

Oooh I'm glad this thread has been revived...well done DC. Tried brum's Hot Smoked Peppered Mackerel and Scrambled Egg On Toast above...it's really good...hubby gave it 10/10...recommended. Katie1997: I'd very much like to try your Irish Choc Brownies, but could you clarify the following please? - you mention 3/4 cup cocoa...are you sure? Sounds like a lot of cocoa? - what size baking container please? And do I need to line/grease (or whatever) the container? - you say bake for 20 mins. but at what oven temp. (degrees F) please? Sorry to be a pain in the wotsit. Thanks in advance xx HAL9000: Your yam recipe intrigues me. Unfortunately, I was put off yam many many years ago when my Mother-in-Law (the old bat - sorry!) used to make this stew type dish containing, amongst other things, chopped up PIGS' TAILS!!! Eeeeeewwwwww-yuck! The stew also contained yam, but the presence of the pigs' tails was sufficient to put me off yam (and other ingredients) for life. Consequently, I would need to pluck up a bucket load of courage before attempting this. It sounds appetizing though - especially with all that cream.
