I've seen the future, well eaten it anyway


I like Chocolate Brownies


I like Mince Pies


I now like Mince Brownies


They look and taste just like a regular brownie, but the 'mince' bit hits you at the end. Very nice indeed and i'll probably be sick of them by the end of Xmas.


I've also eaten sprouts, prepared in a very pleasing manner. All the big leaves pulled off and steamed, then mixed in with little chunks of thick bacon, bacon fat and chopped chestnuts. Now they were very delicious and they'll be appearing at our Xmas lunch, as will roasted white sweet potatoes


And quince jelly

No none of that...


I do cook roasts on occasion... Roast beef last Sunday, roast spuds, roast carrots home made yorkies.. Home made gravy..


That's about it..


Christmas Day .. Home Alone.. not sure if I can be bothered doing all that for one..


Not allowed Christmas Pudding, Mince Pies, Custard, Chocolates, Dates, Sweets..


So a small Oloroso at lunchtime and a couple of bottles of beer in the evening , perhaps a sneaky Drambuie..

Few Twigglets.. Some nuts...


Boxing Day.. off to see Millwall get stuffed...


Foxy..


P.S. Can't even eat Humbugs..

I like my veg steamed or roasted, unless it's bubble then it can be fried. I don't mind sprouts with poultry but I find them a little bland if over done. I personally would roast up some parsnips and carrots in honey and serve them with a nice homemade cranberry sauce. What does everyone think of yorkshires with a Crimbo lunch? Yay or nay?

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
