Sounds promising. If you're feeling thrifty (and short on time), you can buy your 'ingredients' from the one-stop shop, use their heat-up-a-burger microwave, and you should be steamin' by the time you've entered your pin number..

Blimey I oh !


Quick stock take chez Curtain:


Manzanilla (open, but full-ish)


Sainsbo's Amarillo Sherry


1.5lt of Lambrusco Red wine (unopened-gift from the 12-step AA lady down the road)


Various Ciders


In the freezer i've stashed a chunk of belly pork & a load of proper sausages.



I'm well happy now !

Finished the last of the Christmas cake and the sweet sherry a few days back.


None of the chocolates etc lasted much beyond Christmas week :))


Stella went long ago, as did all the leftover white wine,fizzy wine, rum and brandy.


Still got a bottle of dry sherry, ginger wine, several bottles of red and a bottle of gin.


Oh, and about a stone of unwanted flab :))

    • It wasn't an antique and bric-a-bac shop but an antique market with a number of different traders, the cafe supported all the dealers in bringing in custom, and was good enough to generate trade for them. It was Rodney Franklin's and his partners enterprise, he previously had an antique shop in Queenstown Road in Battersea. His late wife ran the cafe (she was a very fine actress, it was a 'resting' job).  It was on the corner of a junction on the left as you head towards Camberwell. And almost opposite, if memory serves at all, an MFI style furniture outlet. 
    • i used to go there in the late 80's and '90s (?) the food was served cafeteria style and there was limited choice, but what there was alays tasted amazing!  The garden was an absolute paradise, you could sit in it to lunch in the summer!  i've tried to locate its site but Walworth Road has changed so much since then - does anyone remember the house number?
    • This is very true. For some people, not even just the elderly, their pet/s may be their most important companion. 
    • Be thankful for the NHS. This is the price to treat a dog or cat. Imagine what it might be to treat a human being with cancer
