  1. It looks just as neat and quasi-sculptural as everything else you achieve, from where I am looking.....Maybe I need to up my game somewhat?
  2. Chilli using mini meatballs instead of mince is tonights culinary endeavour chez moi....If it tastes as good as it smells it may be alright! If not ill leave it in the pan fr a "whiel" to let it ferment some :)

      "It has beans", deserves the following --

      Sheldon Cooper: Then it's not chili. Real chili has no beans in it, but you're from a foreign land, so your ignorance is forgiven.

      I was told that if I didnt put beans in it was not a proper chilli

  3. Bang on the stroke of five the Cider Bell sounded as was usual...Today is slightly different is that it has been that cold the cider did not need to be stored within the fridge, as leaving it on the side in the front room proved to be a shade more cooling to this evening's libationary liquid of choice!

      This seems like a mild threat to the sausage saga..... Does KC know about this ?

      If you plan to spend billions you may get the German Government to cover you losses.

      Be very careful, too much lager and you might well start modelling a German layout !

      This isn't actually the case. Top scientists have recently dis-proven the link with what you drink and the area you model. I was recently tested myself and although initial results showed that due to the volume of cider I consume, I should be modelling the GWR in 1927, I do infact model BR(S) in the late '50's! (crazy science, I know).

  8. Had to take my bedroom apart to find the pair of glasses i lost whilst asleep! :D

      That's how mine started 6 weeks ago, then lost my voice, followed by a hacking cough. Gave in and went to doc last week, who said the bug is every where.

      'Fraid so. My whole family have had it since mid November - seems to get better then worse again. My 5yr old is hacking like a 50 a day smoker...

  23. Wonderful stuff its not just what you do that always appeals, its the sheer quality of the "how" . The Fiddle area looks like some pseudo-industrial "installation" as Art, not just somewhere for small trains to hide away
