Tv chefs who go on tour, discover a fabulous previously undiscovered chef in some country or the other and rather than showing that chef cooking so we can learn from them, the tv chef insists on cooking something mediocre for the said chef... Grrrrr the tv chefs have a whole program about them but I want to see more by the undiscovered chef
Posters that are so full of themselves that they have to post on every thread going. No matter what the subject they have to get in. They cannot shut up. Over 13000 posts! Non-stop. Give it a rest. Take a break like O did, be discerning. Know what I mean j?

I'd sooner read 13,000 of Jeremy's posts than 13 of yours, which are almost without exception simply spiteful and trollish. Do you get off on just being as unpleasant as you can to people? The evidence would certainly seem to point that way.

That's causing me irrational giggles. Especially since English-speakers often over-egg the "oo" sound, like when people intend to say merci beaucoup! but turn it into merci beau cul! (that's "thanks, nice arse!")


"So you see darling, I simply had to deliver the cul de gras!" - the good old 'arse of fat' :D

Finding, at last, good condition Mervyn Peake paperbacks to replace mine foolishly lent, years ago, in a charity shop, Titus Groan and Titus Alone, with a space in between them. sigh. Probably only ten minutes too late.

Hi Sue.

I've always got Popadoms in the cupboard.

I deep fry them in Sunflower oil. 190 deg c and they come out crisp and dry. Just stand upright for 20 seconds.

They tend to go hard not crisp in the micromave.


Do use Micro wave I'm in a hurry. but they do not swell up like they do when deep Fried.

Waiting in all day for something to arrive that you have ordered.


I'm waiting for a fence panel to arrive from Jewsons E.D. No time given.. Not even a.m / p.m

If it had arrived this morning I could of fitted it and then gone out.

Someone phones you. You answer to find that the caller isn't paying attention and engaged in a conversation with someone else while waiting for me to answer. Well I did answer and as you couldn't be arsed to listen I put the phone down on you. Timewasters.

    • This week's edition of The Briefing Room I found really useful and impressively informative on the training aspect.  David Aaronovitch has come a long way since his University Challenge day. 😉  It's available to hear online or download as mp3. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002n7wv In a few days time resident doctors -who used to be known as junior doctors - were meant to be going on strike. This would be the 14th strike by the doctors’ union since March 2023. The ostensible reason was pay but now the dispute may be over without more increases to salary levels. The Government has instead made an offer to do something about the other big issue for early career doctors - working conditions and specialist training places. David Aaronovitch and guests discuss what's going on and ask what the problem is with the way we in Britain train our doctors? Guests: Hugh Pym, BBC Health Editor Sir Andrew Goddard, Consultant Gastroenterologist Professor Martin McKee, Professor of European Public Health, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Mark Dayan, Policy Analyst, Nuffield Trust. Presenter: David Aaronovitch Producers: Caroline Bayley, Kirsteen Knight, Cordelia Hemming Production Co-ordinator: Maria Ogundele Sound Engineers: Michael Regaard, Gareth Jones Editor: Richard Vadon  
    • That was one that the BBC seem to have lost track of.  But they do still have quite a few. These are some in their 60s archive. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0028zp6
