CLOSED - THANKS to all customers for the last few years

'Morning Spacie. I usually fry my kippers in butter, just long enough to heat them through, Poaching is fine, if you like that sort of thing, or you can try grilling for a few minutes each side..

Can't keep the chopper I'm afraid. Cost a packet to run and it's an executive model, not best suited to carting food supplies around. Best get a more utility model for that. I can always borrow one if needed.

I had a mental aberation this morning and washed the beamer, done all except the wheels, hate that job. It needed it though as most days it's parked near to a chopper landing pad and gets covered in dust. Looks like it has been on a Sahara Rally. Leave it too long and the weeds start growing on it when it rains.

Now, if you will excuse me I'm off to the kitchen to make my speciality dish, corned beef rissoles. If you ask me nicely I'll make a few of my home made fish-cakes, it's the parsley that makes them different, scrummy.

Saw on tele recently that you can put the kippers in a jug of boiling water for a few mins...jugged kippers, not tried that yet, usually grill mine. Haven't been to Whitby for some while, must do a pilgrimage and collect some oak smoked :-)

Opto
If you do the Whitby trip, bring a pile of kippers back for the freezer please.

Must go out now, her-indoors is insisting on a trolley race.

I'm back again, just like a bad penny.

If you want anything, I'm out the back doing the washing and drying. Coffee room ran out of tea towels.

Back again, fell asleep on a pile of warm towels. Kettle is on.

Stop talking to yourself Socco

Sorry Jeff, I wasn't there. I'm afraid you were talking to yourself!

Malvern antiques fair today, just right for a little ride round some country lanes.

Jeff, I'm sure that people from around the world log on just to see what Socco has to say :-)
Bit early for the Guinness, have a cup of coffee and a danish.

Morning all, nice a bright in Hastings at the moment, woke up to find a huge bumble bee in our room, I spent about 20 minutes semi awake wondering what the buzzing was !

I can just imagine pressing all the buttons on the alarm clock failing to stop the buzzing, frustration, alarm clock exits bedroom via window!

Bought nothing at antiques fair, got stung for some plants at the garden centre on the way home, not to mention a tank full of petrol. Bang goes my LLOY dividend.

Morning get your wellies out ;>)
cos it's duck weather! LOL

Foggy and wet in Hastings this morning havnt seen any ducks yet;-),

I am going on a corporate meal thing on a boat on the thames this evening, shame that the weather has changed it wont be much fun in the rain ...

And to cap it all I switched on my work PC this morning and the hard disk failed so looks as though I will have to have a day off.

Spacie it's supposed to improve down here this afternoon/evening so you river trip meal may be better then you think weatherwise - if they have the forecast right.

bunny, that would be good, its still pretty grim in Hastings.

Stopped raining here Spacie and brightening up :>)
I'll send it south/eastwards to Sussex......
;>)

Its getting better here as well but I have decided not to go on the boat trip, its too much hassle, or more accurately I am too lazy !

Rest and relaxation - why not?
Sounds a good way to spend a Monday evening :>)
