Manky Monkey Motors

This one is nice and easy. Minimal equiptment is needed and it will defenatly give you a sense of achivement.
So to start with, as usual, gather a few essential items.
1. a mug
2. sugar
3. coffee
4. a spoon
5. milk
6. hot water

The first step is a matter of taste, so its up to you but i like 2 sugars in mine. So using our spoon we place 2 heaped spoonfulls of sugar into the mug. Using the same spoon follow this up with 1 spoonfull of coffee.

Again the next sep is optional, but i have the full works, so into the mug goes a splash of milk.
Doesn`t look much yet does it?

The next step is the trickiest so be carefull. Top up your mixture with hot water. Hot water is hot and will scold you if you spill it on your hands!
Finally finish off by giving it a good stir with your spoon

And there you have the finished product, sit back, relax and enjoy

ROFL Fantastic just what I needed to know  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

talk about multi talented!!!!!! ;D ;D ;D
what a guy!!!!! ;)

Morning , a couple of quick questions  ........  what size of spoon should I use and should that be semi-skimmed or full-fat milk  ....

PS.  I dont take sugar can I still make it without ?




 ;D ;D ;D

cheers  ..  Hagar

He's good at this picture stuff. How about wallpapering?

Also why was a Manky Monkey mug not used for the photos  ;D

it's good to have a female specific tech tip for a change   ;D ;D

 >:( :P

Just a technical issue here - adding the milk before the hot water doesn't work with all kinds of instant coffee.

Do not try this with Alta Rica!

Of course if you only have the inferior stuff..................


 :P

My Mrs puts the teabag in the milk before she pours hot water on. Does anyone else do this, or is she wierd?

Definatly milk in last when making tea.

Tea should alawys be made in a teapot, the milk should always be added to the cup before the tea is poured, just my opinoin but it does taste better. ;D ;D

And the little finger should be 'crooked', of course, never straight!whether its Indian or China tea, don't ya know!

Certainly should,  ;D ;D ;D

I have a really techy question........
How should I make a cup a soup?  ??? ??? ??? Can anyone help? I've seen them advertised but can't quite get the hang of it. I've searched youtube etc and can find nothing there :'( :'( So I thought, Ahha, perhaps a kind monkey can help me out. ;D ;D
Thanks

Regards
K

She suddenly remembered last night that she hasn't sorted it yet. She's got a stash of Cuppa Soups at work. I'll text her & remind her to bring one home.  ;)

Sorry K I did forget but I now have one with me at home and will post full photo and wordy instructions in a bit.

Right here you go Klogan.

How to make a Cup a Soup.

I've chosen the Minestrone flavour Cup a Soup for my demo. There are lots of different flavours out there to choose from but all are made in the same way. I'm going to show you how to in this article.

First you select your sachet of Cup a soup, find a tea spoon, a mug and the Kettle

Fill the kettle with water and either plug in or put on the gas, (depends on the type of kettle you have), and bring to the boil.

While the kettle is warming up, empty the contents of  the sachet of chosen soup into your mug.

.

Once the kettle has reached boiling point then you are now ready to add the water to the mug. WARNING Water is very very hot and can scald you if you are not careful so please make sure you have a sensible adult present when doing this part.

Pour into the mug with the sachet contents in.

.

Stir the solution thoroughly so the powder is fully disolved. Some like to pour and stir at the same time.

And there you have it one home made Cup a soup

That was Tonyb's Snowman's brother your just put in there!

You can see him looking out of the kettle when you've put it on the heat.  (look at the fear in is eye).

 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

All that's left to do is drink it  ;D

WARNING be careful when you first drink as it will be very very hot. I recomend leave it to stand for a few mins to cool down.

Evening , ..  " Pot noodle "   next please    ..   ;D

.. Hagar  .. 

Oky doky will do that too at lunch time  ;D

what about a piccalilli butty.

... so what do you do with it now? I've got the cup of coffee in front of me but the instructions don't tell me wat to do with it!!  ??? >:(

it does looks pretty though, the contents is still still swirling.

Thanks for the techy on making a cup a soup. There is one problem though, where do I find a sensible adult, all the adults that I know are a bit (well a lot to be honest) mental.
Before I progress to pouring the boiling water and stirring the soup should I practice with just cold water and a spoon and a mug? Perhaps I could simulate the soup by adding some milk powder.
Thanks again Tazet, your efforts will not be wasted I will definately be attempting the cup a soup as soon as I gain a bit more confidence. I will have to psych myself up for it coz as you say boiling water is very hot Boiling in fact)
Regards
 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
K

A pot noodle item as requested by Hagar would be really good too!!!
What about a bacon butty tech item.....please? ;D ;D ;D
Regards
K

 ;D Try drinking it but be careful as it may be very hot  ;D

How do you drink a pot noodle?? ;D ;D ;D
Regards
K

Thought he was on about the Coffee. Sorry I didn't get time to do the noodle today. It's been complete hell at work with a capital H and tomorro is not looking much better either  :'( Will see what I can do Thursday as I have the day off.

Oh, I see.... I was a bit slow there ::) ::) ::) I saw the earlier post about the coffee ;D ;D
No hurry for the pot noodle item as at the moment my missus is fit and well and keeping me fed....well most of the time. It's just that I get a bit peckish now and again and have to wake her up to make me something to eat. Thats life eh!!!!
Sorry to hear that work has been hell, really, still look on the bright side it gets you out of the house for a while :o :o :o :o
Regards
K
;D ;D ;D

If we don't get a thaw soon my back completley will go with lugging water canisters about and all I'll be eating from bed will be pot noodles as Manky is good at making them  ;D

Well I take my hat off to Manky (well I would if I wore one) he can cook as well as build brill trikes,  Well done sir, well done. Tick, V.G
Apparently its going to warm up by the week-end. You've got to look after your back, Tazet, coz it's the only one you'll get. Having said that you've got to look after the GeeGees too. Could'nt you put the water containers in a wheelbarrow? Might be a bit easier on you?  But you won't be able to do that if you knacker yourself, will you. Mind you, it sounds like the perfect excuse to get Manky running around after you, but don't tell him I said that, will you... ;D ;D ;D
Take care of yourself too ;) ;)
Regards
K

I won't tell him and I've been transporting the canisters around in the back of a V8 Discovery I buzz about in at work. Just killing to lift them in and out of it then onto the trough to empty them. The only tap that's not frozen on the estate is inside my boss's workshop so not mugh fun. Looking forward to the weekend.

 You've probably thought of this already but just in case....
Why not fill the cannisters while they're in the truck coz it would be easier to lift them out than it is to lift them in. Just be careful that you don't overfill them.
Regards
K

 ;D Yup had thought of that and I do that if the hose is not frozen. Just had a complete day from hell and not long got in from work after doing a 13 and a half hour day and I'm just a little pooped to say the least. I've got the day off tomorrow so will do the pot noodle at lunch time.

sod the pot noodle put yer feet up an av a minit sounds like a plan

 ;D

next tec item,could someone build a set of forwards pleeeeeeeeeeeeeese.

Better still, put yer feet up and get Manky to make you a pot noodle.
How can you make a set of forwards if you have no strength due to lack of pot noodle energy ;D ;D ;D
