    Are they like yorkshire fat rascals Dove?

    Home with dog meat to find dog has an upset belly and we've no lighting (heating, walls...) Cue scrubbing and hope I've not missed anything!

    Fat Rascals are sweet aren't they?  Sugar and fruit and candied peel and a glacé cherry on top?

    Never had one either.  When I was at Harlow Carr, just the once, and having a treat in Betty's I was beguiled by a fabulous sticky ginger cake with lemony bits.  Delia has a recipe that comes close.

    I was very naughty yesterday and rustled p a quick bread and butter pudding using brioche - a local specialty - and home-made Oxford marmalade.  Yum yum but need to think a bit thinner and more healthy for a few days now.

    Looks like Philip Green might have a knighthood going spare soon.   Good.  I hope the campaign builds.  Scandalous what's happened to BHS pensions.

    Absolutely agree Obxx. Brioche and marmalade make a divine b&b pud. Also agree re Philip Green, nasty slimy greedy vulgar arrogant two - faced ar$e image

    Never has a shepherds pie tasted so good.

    A nice b&b pud for afters would be good.

    Don't hold back Dove....image

    Couldn't agree more. Isn't it interesting how the sum he siphoned off into his wife's bank account pretty much matched the amount lost in the pension fund.....disgusting excuse for a human being. Why isn't he already in jail anyway? image

    Was it the nectar of the gods, doc? image

    I know a few fat rascals...oh, I see what you mean....image

    Survived Ikea. Just need to lie down in  a darkened room for a while....image

    On a different tack - I looked at the winning photos of the wildlife photographer of the year online. The pic of the owl by Mats Andersson made me cry like a baby. Silly old mare....image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    OMG , punkdoc.

    I know you wanted to get away from the neighbour , but... OMG.

    I'm glad I didn't know where you were, your wife must have been terrified.

     it must make Sheffield A & E on a Saturday night before Christmas look like a picnic in the park.

     All I can say is, if you can do that , you can do anything.

    Enjoy the bottle of wine.image

     I think you deserve a fat rascal or two.
