I'm an avid watcher of TV cookery programmes but no-one I've seen has managed to trump my roasties yet, so I thought I'd share my method and ask you about yours. 1) There can be only one! (potato). The mighty King Edward. Forget the rest. 2) Peeling. Very important, this. Don't merely scrape the skin off. Take at least 2mm depth of peel off. If you cut a potato in half and look at the cross-section, you'll see a white-ish layer just below the skin (usually). We want to get rid of it. Cut the potatoes into halves (thirds or quarters if big to start) and place in a pan of cold water to which a big pinch of salt has been added. 3) Whatever roasting tin/tray yo…

Every year I leave buying presents etc right until the last minute. This time I was well and truly sorted over a week before! Everything wrapped already and I can now relax with :duffer: and a bit more :duffer: and look forward to cooking the mother of all Christmas feasts on the big day. How has everyone else got on?

*WARNING* Some may find these pics graphic! The Hippopotamus has always been seen as a slow moving, lovable, water wallowing, creature. The following pictures show just how dangerous the Hippo really can be, especially when protecting young or territory. The following pictures show a Hippo attack a Zebra, a Dog and an Antelope, clamping down with a vice-like grip on to its victims head.

It seems to be a pretty much a top subject in the news at the moment. As some of you may seen, the current government has decided not only to go against the long term agreement of a yearly pay increase that matches the rate of inflation (3%) every september, but also not back date the pay increase. Most will probably guess what my reaction to this is, given my current choice of employment, but im curious to what you guys think about it all. Please dont comment about the whole subject of whether police officers should be able to strike or not, which to be honest, will never happen. Nick

None of you know that I'm an Artist an a poet as well it would seem. I entered a compertition on the web early in the year. Just out of boredem. I've always writen poems and lyrics from when i used to play in bands. So i thought why not give it a go, Anyway I'm going to Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.

So.. where do we stand (legally) when we are faced driving towards a gritter coming opposite direction that is spreading, and your car gets covered then stonechips everywhere !! ? Edited... lol

Two blondes were working for the council. One would dig a hole and the other would follow behind and fill the hole. They worked up one side of the street, then down the other, then moved on to the next street, working furiously all day without rest, one blonde digging a hole, the other blonde filling it in again. An onlooker was amazed at their hard work, but couldn't understand what they were doing. So he asked the hole digger, "I'm impressed by the effort you two are putting into your work, but I don't get it why do you dig a hole, only to have your partner follow behind and fill it up again ?" The hole digger wiped her brow and sighed, "Well, I suppose…
