  1. Who the heck are they? And how on earth are they able to control the weather?
  2. Greetings, Albert
  3. I've not watched this series either (which is hardly surprising, since I don't have a TV). I did watch the original BBC series back in the 1970's. Nice period drama, but it didn't make that much of an impression on me that I got upset about missing the occasional episode...
  4. Which is exactly why I made my original reply. That's all recipes should be used as: guidelines.
  5. And with that, I think I'll take myself to bed. (Perchance to dream...? ) Good night, gang!
  6. Well, I had to pay for the one I got... Could I have got one for free in Canada?
  7. Now that's what I like to see! Someone who's happy to experiment with their cooking, instead of just blindly following a recipe.
  8. I found a really stiff one, thanks.... Would have preferred one a bit wider, but it should do well enough. I'll find out how good it is tomorrow. Too dark at the moment.
  9. It's simnel cake, I think... A traditional Easter cake. Fruit cake covered with marzipan. And eleven marzipan balls on top, to symbolise the eleven apostles.
  10. Actually, what I think really happens is that the alcohol actually evaporates away during the cooking, due to it having a lower boiling point than water. (But I could be wrong)...
  11. Nothing Viagra wouldn't cure.....
  12. And hey right back at you, buddy! Chat later.
  13. Good evening, all Spent most of the afternoon strimming, and tidying the paved and concreted area at the back of the new, old house. Finally found the cover of the main drain in that area. Need to prise it off tomorrow, and clean the slots in it. That should hopefully dry up the rear of the house... (Sometimes I almost envy those of you that live in dryer climes... ) Heading off to the hardware store now before it closes to purchase a good stiff yard brush.
  14. Hey, young fellow! Hope all's well in Albertsville.
  15. Good night, all
  16. Strangely, I didn't feel sad when I read it. I more felt happy that Dan finally saw the light, and acted on it.
  17. Well worth the read! (Merry Christmas indeed...)
  18. Realistic dialogue! Especially from Adam Scott. He had every excuse in the book. And it was obvious to him that the blame always lay elsewhere... Nicely done, Gary! [EDIT: Dunno why I initially wrote called Scott "Adam" ...]
  19. Then what can I say but thank you very much? You just made an old man very happy....
  20. Awh shucks, Gary.... You say the nicest things.... Now I'm blushing
