A tale from the hive. Friends arrived today and came empty-handed. It was coffee time, so we offered the only biscuits we had, which were made by other friends and were delicious. Were. Final goodbyes were said and we were left pondering the notion of friendship.
Deep-fried king prawns with cauli/potato bhaji and tomato and green onion relish. Nobody, apart from yer bees, scoffed this but I’d have you all here in an instant, if I could.

Oh dear twin
Hugs from me who is considering friends who went over and above to help me with my boot and walker and a hotel with broken lifts where two or six steps are needed to deal with the rock the hotel is built on
Killarney is a gateway to the mountains that are beloved of rally folks
So we are suffering a 5* hotel for accommodation and a nearby hotel with our orifice
Sup per was local Killarney pale ale and a fermented martyr hummus and a southern style chicken burger
The hummus was absolutely gorgeous
Though toasted pitta might have been more appropriate than home made tortilla chips

Same here, Soo. 100%.
See also cheese with bits of fruit or whatever mixed in, just no. If it is good cheese it doesn’t need it and if it’s not good cheese I don’t want to eat it.

Whoever came up with apricot in Wensleydale cheese deserves to be force fed the stuff until they accept that we cellarati know best

Here we have roast beef and roasties and Yorkshire pudding and red wine gravy, with broccoli for those who feel they need to be Healthy.
I take responsibility for the gravy; the rest is the work of Other Hands.
