Hello I've just opened my last bottle of wine. End times. 2.5 bottles here, and one of those is the experimental bottle I bought in Lidl today. |

I'm staying quiet amongst all this sad wine news.

It's official, lock down has driven some people crazy: I love this. "Ow, my feet! Ow, my other feet! Ow, my real feet!" Though the best thing was definitely when they beat Dark Souls with the Donkey Kong bongos. |

Well, Shenguin's Revenge is looking like a non-runner 3 days left to fill... Fog of War again, but this time you can privately message each other, it's a faster 1 day a phase and you can pick your country ... last time's winning country, Russia, is still available! It's the same password and, to give you all a sporting chance of revenge, I'm playing Italy so you can all jump on me from the start! Sorry, I'm spectating on this one even if I can't see a thing. I can't cope with only one day per phase. Also, never again do I want to be mistaken for Shenguin. |

I have a barbecue. I also have some coals for it. What I don't have is the right meat for it. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! You can Bar-B-Q your leg o' lamb. Common practice in New Zealand. Delicious too! You do actually roast it, but in the barb. Anyway, best of the day: Old Holborn ✘ @holbornlolz Replying to @badassday Another four weeks of the UK sat on their arses claiming benefits and everyone will be speaking scouse. |

Bloody apron, leg of lamb. On the barbecue, 4 hours, get drunk, all good. I am foreign though, so it’s only to be expected.
I’m in the garden being orbited by a bat. Despite being in a. Ideal situation I have no smoke, sadly; this is primo baking territory.
Eat bat or no? What’s the worst the could happen?

The good thing about AC is that everyone gets there eventually and probably sooner than you think. Sorry about the washed up rockstar look. Didn't have anything else to wear. I need to figure out whether it's possible to transfer critters and fossils. Should have "dropped" the furniture and clothes for you rather than "placing" them because it then tells me that I can't tidy up whilst I've got company. I'll bring things to Happy Isle next time. |

The thing with lamb is that I actually like it to just taste like lamb.
I've had it with all sorts of herbs and spices in the past, but to me, nothing beats the pure flavour of the roasted meat.
It is my no.1 roast dinner.

I agree with Felice. Pork for roast dinner. I prefer pork leg over loin.
Although lamb chops would make it to my death row meal. It is a long list so most things do.

A couple of ribs of sirloin for me, although tbh, each meat was brilliant in its season, a leg of pork in winter for the warmth, roast gammon with the first new jerseys, white sauce and fresh broad beans; a hog roast in Denmark with a couple of loaves each and a crate of beer each and a few bottles of schnapps to blow your mind,; and roast goose at Xmas - I only got it right once, but alas those days of entertaining are long gone. And hogget studded with garlic ... damned difficult to get, but a long cooked hogget is beautiful eating.

I've never eaten goose. There, I've said it.
I love extra thick lamb chops, roasted, in a roasting tray, with water half way up the chop. For a good hour and a half, on low. Turning occasionally. Possibly add an extra drop or two of water. Last 30 mins, leave it to carry on roasting, the water drys out, the fat goes crispy, the meat is succulent, and the tray bits (minus excess fat) add to make an amazing gravy.
Oh man. I could eat that right now.

Faggots -the midland foodstuff- are generally made with lungs.
They are minced into meatballs. You wouldn't notice anything odd about them.
You can generally tell a lot about people from whether they will eat black pudding 'raw'. That is after it has been boiled in the skin.
Outside Brum and the black country this is generally regarded as a strange habit.
Also foreigners don't understand scratchings properly.
It is the worst thing about London. You can't get scratchings no matter how rundown the pub.

Pork scratchings in an unlabelled bag to accompany a few pints is one of the world's great meals.
