Think the general tone has morphed into ranting. By it's title it presumably has served its purpose? By continuing to exist it's just serving the tinies in the main to keep up the ranting. So, we've all voted (or maybe not). Think if any if the rantees on here started a thread that indicated what they really wanted to spout then it would get shut down very quickly. There is little of the discussion you crave.

Thankfully most of those on here are not in the tinies.

Still you too will have a sore head when "teach" bangs it together with the other kids on here


Best way to kill a thread is by not posting on it and others will soon do the same

Whether you?re a Momentum supporter or not, your style of ?discussion? comes straight out of their playbook. Anyway, as you think that having the last word means you?ve won the argument, I shall give you this opportunity as I will not be posting again on this thread. As has been pointed out already, the only way this thread will close is if people, including yourself, stop posting on it - it takes more than making petulant demands to Admin.

You're right. It's only 'other people' who rant on here.....


Perhaps you take your own advice and start a thread to speak about whatever the heck you want, and stop interjecting in this one.....

Let?s add a little misogyny and objectification to the thread. I mean really, it?s what it?s been missing.

Here?s a recipe for Plum Puffs


Ingredients


1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon granulated sugar

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup water

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 large eggs

1/2 cup plum preserves

Confectioners? sugar, for dusting

Instructions


Preheat oven to 425? F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and brush paper lightly with water.

Combine flour, granulated sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Place water and butter in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Turn the heat to low and add the flour mixture. Mix well and continuously until a soft choux dough forms and pulls away from the side of the pan.

Remove the pan from the heat. Add one egg and beat until the mixture is smooth (see note). Add the second egg and beat again until smooth.

Drop teaspoons of the choux dough onto the baking sheet at 2 inches apart. (The puffs will double in size while baking.) Use a wet finger to smooth any peaks.

Bake 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Do not open the oven during baking.

Remove the puffs from the oven and turn the heat off. Close the oven door. With a toothpick, poke a hole in each puff to release the steam.

Return the puffs to the warm oven for 5 minutes.

Remove the puffs from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Use a serrated knife to carefully split each puff in half. Fill the bottom portion with a spoonful of plum preserves and replace the cap.

Arrange puffs on a platter and sprinkle confectioners? sugar over the top. Best served immediately to hungry bosom friends. Can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days or frozen for longer.

Notes


Use a wooden spoon or spatula to beat in the eggs, or transfer the mixture to a stand mixer with a paddle attachment.

I don?t know most people on this thread


I wish we could just go back to blaming ?cliques?


Simpler times


My tuppence: The thread is the thread. Points were raised. They remain of interest to enough people. Calling for the thread to be closed down is misguided. Threads die when people lose interest and move on. As it should be

    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
    • Pity you didn't quote what you are referring to, Mal. I didn't see the previous post, and my mind is boggling 😮
    • The Cherry Tree was absolutely excellent for a while when a youngish couple ran it and brought in a really good chef. It was them who renamed it The Cherry Tree. They were really turning it around. The chef did fantastic Scotch eggs, and one of the best roasts I've ever had. If memory serves the then owner,  for some reason known only to himself, took a dislike to them and what they were doing and sacked them all. And yes we weren't expecting a top class  meal last Christmas, and we left it too late to book anywhere else, but we weren't expecting it for a hundred pounds EACH to be quite as terrible as it was. Stupid us. Not sure why you are confused by my post, Jazzer? Did I misremember? Now it's got even more confusing because my posts have been merged and your confused emoji is shown at the bottom of the second one instead of the first 🤣
