So, who wants to help ... to flummox the cellar?

While tryin’ to escape and relyin’ on a contaminated hipflask as your only source of sustenance. Obviously.

Who invented 4.30am?

And insomnia….

Lovely to hear about happy family bump and Poodle

Now I need photos of the gorgeous girl and may I admit to being an eejit

The thing about cast iron is that it gets hot all over so guess who grabbed Ozzie’s firebox door handle to put more fuel into him?

Even my asbestos digits can burn I find

Only the tip of my middle finger but annoying all the same

Daft old bat that I am

I might be having difficulty cooking bacon for bacon butties if I don’t get a bit of sympathy from the cellarati

Afternoon, Cellarites.

Radio 4, just now…I have heard a young woman telling the nation that she gets ‘so much from renting clothes, as I get to explore myself and my self-identity’. WTTE. No, just no. Make it stop. I did.

Walkies, as soon as Mr Bee’s back from the gym.

That’s her, not you, Soo, although presumably you made a voluntary decision to turn R4 on in the first place…

Budge up on the musing rock dear limpet

I am thinking frittata laced with manchego with a bit of smoked paprika in the eggs

Or cheesey patatas bravas

Or as a dipping cheese for a flowering onion

For starters
Give me a few hours to think of more things

I’ll have everything apart from the mussels, thank-you.

I have just finished the smoked mackerel pate…

Hopefully Scotland bound, Carinthia xx There izzan dearth of properties available, in the Borders, though. We’ve lived here for 37 years and have a Huge Amount of Rubbish to weed out. I’m starting to quail, meep.

It seemed to be finely grated into a hollandaise sauce, Gus. Bluddy gorgeous.

Twellsy - as much as (almost) anything I enjoy meals out to give me Ideas.

Ah! Yes, I can see that working, whereas I couldn’t really imagine Manchego behaving fondueishly.

It’s prolly behaving fiendishly on the beely waistline, Gus :wink:

Yes, it was. But facing up to the reality is unnerving. I’ll cope! I imagine.
