I will have a glass of champers please and a cigar. A cigar bigger than johns will do. (what a horrible man)
:-)

But Golddog, they`ve voted off the only `character` and wind up merchant on the prog. the remaining days will be a lot poorer for the loss of the beast.

yes i thought he might of lasted a little longer. His silent treatment was very funny. He is not fully right in the head.

cheers for those words Gavdfc.

John was great value and i would have loved to see him stay a while if only to infuriate him! i have to say i don't have a great opinion on the remaining cast but for some reason cannot stand Lisa.

Hope the sleepless nights arn't too bad Prop. All part of the fun I guess!

John certainly had an opinion on things, as did people on him! Certainly knew how to wind Caprice up.

well they are pretty sleepless right now and we make get a night nurse if it stays this way.

the problem with captice is that she seems to be so fake. now don't get me wrong, she is a great looking girl but for some reason comes over as really calculating

My Mother in Law is exactly the same only she's ugly.

MS

does she have an underwear range?

Yes it's very large and pink.

MS

do you have nightmares about the fact that you know what it looks like?

Tandoori Chicken.

Ingredients.

6 chicken thights
4 Tbsp plain yogurt
1/2 inch crushed fresh ginger
3 cloves garlic crushed
3 chillies ground
1/2 tps cardamom
1 & 1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp coriander
1/2 tsp cloves
1/2 tsp cinnamon
pepper
paprika (to colour)

1. Using a sharp knife slice 3-4 slashes across each of the chicken pieces and remove the skin.
2. In a large bowl mix together the chicken and all the ingredients, except the yogurt, getting well into the cuts.
3. Add the yogurt to the marinated chicken mixing throughly. Cover and marinate in the fridge overnight if possible 24 hours.
4. Preheat the oven to 230C/Gas 8.
5. Place the marinated chicken on a rack in a roasting tray. Roast on the top shelf for 25 minutes, turning halfway through, untill the chicken is cooked through. It might need basting with oil if you want.

If you don't like it too hot cut back on the chillies. If you prefer grill for 30 minutes to give that barbecue flavour.

Enjoy

MS

MS

has anyone done the su doku number puzzle in the times (back page of T2)? a nice diversion when things get dull

mickeyskint, excuse me naivety in culinary matters, but can you do similar with a decent steak ???

i need a great stock idea to make a few hundred thousand...any thoughts?

Snakey I don't think it would work with steak as the cooking times are different and might dry out, but try it that's what good cooking is all about.

Prop, we all want one of them. I like the look of and have gone for DGM as one of my 2005 plays. I also think HMY will increase by 1 at least and SEY will start to happen. If you fancy a bit of a risk I think DES could well make some people very happy.

LOL
