  1. Try curried rabbit, said rabbit was curried because it smelt slightly odd, despite being shot by a mate the evening before. We attempted to eat the curry but failed, a singular event for us. On cross examination Andy admitted he had not paunched it when shot, but only the morning after. I now have some idea what curried silage ud taste like. m
  2. Kosher or Halal?
  3. in or outta the shell?
  4. A decent Haggis is remarkably good eating, after we bought about 100No. from Sainsburys for 1p each,(post Rabbie Burns night) to feed the dogs(seriously) cept Senior Managment decided to pop one in a pot to try it, and boy o boy, was it GOOD! With ketchup. The dogs/dawgs got none.

  7. Ye girl ye, America is hopping full of micro-breweries at present, get stuck in, though "they" sometimes appear to go a bit mad wit the Hops an overdo it. Being an over-reaction to the usual mainstream over bland/tasteless beers. Though one might as well drink cresote as some of the pungently hoppy beers.

  9. Whatever American sold "Freak of Nature" beer to Tim Weatherspoon, needs tramped in a hole. 7.5% alcohol and quite disgusting, I tried some last night, and this after a pint of quite strong hoppy Ale. m

    "Come 'ere young'un, get some vittles from yonder pot before I tan yer hide!" Well seeing as redneck-hillbillies bes decended fea Co. Antrim stock, cos that bes a perfectly clear instruction to mesel. cept we ud say "yon pot" M At work this morning there was a complaint from some of the younger main office staff, that it was too cold in their office, I called in on the way past, noted they were correct and commented; "Aliastair will be along to turn the wick up" that did not bloody unnerstan me. Dreagh or what! PS Dreagh means slow on the uptake, perhaps even obtuse.

    A poor creater (creature pronounced creater) o a tourist wandered into a bar in Belfast and before he got a chance to decide what he wanted to drink was greeted by the barman guldering (=shouting) "Bout-ye" in his face. Which caused him to wonder how he had offended said barman, but a spat out "bout-ye" merely bes the standard Belfast greeting, being short for "How about you". cheers m
  13. Means buying an unknown item/quantity. A poke is a bag or paper container ( a poke of chips or a poke of sweets) Hence it might or might not be a pig wriggling about in there:lol:
  14. Indeed, perhaps cos French Letters=Jonnies=Condoms:lol::lol: PS What are yer "yummy" Dutch letters then?:lol:
  15. Touche! An boots is Wellingtons (though the Belfast wans calls them water-boots) PS Johnny's referred to as "French letters" in my youth.
  16. Christ yeez is a picky lot, cold pasta salad is excellent. & Raw fish & shellfish is OK too, but I do prefer my red meat cooked, though not overcooked. A cold "bleu" Welsh Black fillet steak is also a wonderful hangover cure btw. All grist for the mill.
  17. Back in 1995 when we were at a land auction (& where we actually bought the site we are living on) a "Hobo" shuffled in part way through, stood about for a while, spoke to nobody, and left again. Said "Hobo" was a well-doing/self made farming gentleman who could have bought and sold most anybody else in the room. I liked his touch. m Ere! Now I come to think of it The MontyPython crew was all over the lumberjack/lumbersexual Before it were fashionable.
  18. Bah Humbug!!
  19. :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
  20. :001_tt2: That's not a LandRover, it cant be, cos its all shiny and clean:001_rolleyes: m
  21. Hey ho, cant win em all:001_rolleyes: cheers m
  22. Was the Galvanised chassis a factory spec item? Highly unlikely I would have thought, since the galvanising anneals the steel thereby lowering the tensile strength, therefore chassis requires to be thicker and heavier to attain the necc spec. Which is self defeating.
  23. very impressive!
  24. Correct since November is still the Autumn. So Dec, Jan and Feb bes the months to watch. Anyway I still remember 1947! Marcus
  25. We can easily get the living room to 30 plus with the nominal 8kw Morso. It is 5m by 5m plus a window bay, and that 30 deg is with the door to the stairwell open. These stoves are really intended for Skandanivan style open plan houses, with the stove centrally located. PS Despite the 30 deg heat I have yet failed to get the wife to announce "Gosh, it is so hot in here I am going to have to take all my cloths off" Still working on "Plan B" btw. Marcus
