Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

and all those cars in yor small town amazing ever one must have at least 4 cars

idiot .... can't even answer your own previous question
now be a good boy Ruprecht and go back to your cell where you can bang away at your saucepan with that nice wooden spoon

Cynic,

You do value yourself highly.

Have a look at the % of faeces allow in various spices.

Another, interesting type food which I have consumed an unreasonable amount of are various "continental" sausages and salami etc..

Check on the ingredients of many two see the number of donkeys to pig or other ingredients.

Look for ane or annes to see the proportions.

Cynic,


I will think of you as Manuel from now on.

that's ok pal .... i am well aware of what goes into salami .... on the continent, it is usually advertised as pork or horse or whatever, and frankly, if it tastes good i'm not too worried ..... similarly, i'll regularly eat andouillette and boudin blanc or noir, certainly sweetbreads and snails and even brains on occasion .... confess i've never fancied lungs and some of the other strange internal organs one sees regularly across europe ...... can't say i fancied toads either which i saw being sold in san francisco chinatown market

It doesn't worry me either.

Like French and UK black puddings, and varieties of faggots but the others mentioned tasted and not requested again. Although the Italians have a few recipes for brains. (I have enough already.)

I wouldn't use snails as bait, unless I ran a restaurant.

(Strange, did seriously, consider running a wine bar or bistro type bar back in the 70s, until an Austrian Jewish friend told me that my food would be allright, but that I would be telling the clientèle to B. off at 1am. in the morning. He had a large chain of eateries. Those were the days.)

brains, like sweetbreads, are more to do with texture than innate flavour - e.g. can be cooked crisp on the outside while the interior is soft and quite creamy .... never tried prepping and cooking either of them

off to the pub .

Is anyone really interested. :-))

TFFT :-)

TT, "off to the pub" Not a Wetherspoons is it?

Skinny, TFFT? Now I've given that some thought, but no search me.. I give up -):

Same here Stan - TFFT ? sorry skinny, sounds rude . lol

more likely Yates Wine Lodge

Thank FF that!

Is was what I thought. lol Your not the only one. I bet the minute he walks in the pub it suddenly empties.

Yates,

Can remember one of those with saw dust on the floor and a rail behind you at the bar to stop you falling over.

The bar had and entrance door at one end and exit door at the other end.

your fave local fred, for meeting the comrades :-)

I bet they take it in turns with a bloke on watch at the door to alert the poor devils he is on his way. lol

Yates wine lodge, crumbs that brings back memories. My Mother was not impressed with me when I woke her up and asked her to dance with me - totally off my head, she did get up and did have a dance as she did not want my Father to see me after(leading or bleeding scooners of whatever). Sherry I think! I got a severe talking to the next day.
