as far as taz is concerned if its got alcohol in it then its drinkable and the higher the % the better.  |

Is that diet or caffeine free?

Well happy new year to me - got the worst toothache I've had in living memory, just been to the emergency dentist who said it's an abcess and gave me antibiotics - one of them I can't have any alcohol while I'm taking it or for 2 days after!
Wish I'd got paralytic new year now!

Ooooh, my heartiest sympathies BG, there's nothing quite as miserable as either toothache or earache, especially when the Powers That Be refuse to do anything about it till you've been through a course of antibiotics.

Cheers Wizz - the toothache is giving me earache too! And the only medication I can take on top of arthritis med just takes the edge of for about 2 hours - and can only take it every 4 hours! I'm feeling really really sorry for myself today! Had a good day yesterday with my girls and grandchildren here, first day off since I went back to work Boxing day, couldn't eat much of the lovely dinner I made (specially the perfect crunchy roasties) but it wasn't as bad as today - tomorrow I'm back to work for 7 straight earlies! Shan't go if it's no better than today tho.  |

(specially the perfect crunchy roasties) Did you use goose fat? My Mum gave me a jar. I know Nigella Lawson reckoned it was marvellous and sparked a famine of the stuff, but it does produce incredible roast potatoes. I'm quite good at roast potatoes but these were some of the best I've done. |

Don't need goose grease just good old fashioned beef dripping. Part boil the spuds 'till their about to fall I.E. soft, take off the heat, drain, shake to fluff up the edges then place in roasting tin. When the meat is cooked take it out and place under warmed grill, stir the roasties around the tin and stick back in the oven until brown. The dripping is also better if it's not fresh. As it has more flavour if it's been used a few times.
I feel hungry now.

Thank you Fanny Craddock!
Ruffty Tuffty biker cookery lessons eh.
Actually that's something I should add to my New Year resolutions list -learn to cook. I live alone so tend to just grab something quick & convenient from the freezer & shove it in the oven to warm up. I think I'd enjoy being creative in the kitchen.

More like Finny Haddock.  I have a crockpot on the go more or less continuously. Before I go out in the morning I throw in the days addition today it was mince tomorrow it'll be some cheap steak that I bought today. You do have to cook any veg' before you put them in 'cos the crock doesn't do them properly. If you had one you could set it up the night before, then turn it on when you go out to work and bingo a hot meal when you get back. That'll set you up for the afternoon in the garage. |

Yeah, sounds so much more appealing than a Pot Noodle & a Diet Coke.

I use a mixture of olive oil and lamb fat for my roasties. Otherwise pretty much what Deegee said.

Yeah, I'd enjoy getting messy in the kitchen. Would make a change from the garage.
Noodle Minors, as in young noodles, or those that mine noodles? They don't grow on trees then?
