For me, it's scrub the beer (I'm teetotal) and swap for tea. And swap brown sauce for bbq sauce and add a slice or two of black pudding...

Add sausages, too. Retain the brown sauce, and the Guinness. What the hell, put some white pudding on there too.

My goodness, I'm in heaven.

I'd ride a lot less if I knew I could get it locally.

See you in the Blythe Hill Tavern

Ooh, I've never been in there! (Daughter's mother lives over the road.)

One just for the cat owners on here

LOLOLOL... My two know that they are not to bother me until *I* wake up.

Besides, there is a biscuit dispenser in the sitting room if they have a case of the midnight munchies.

Soda bread/ farls aren't the lightest of breads (not really dense either, a bit like a scone in texture perhaps) and is best eaten fresh!

Yes, it is a bit like scones, but lovely. I much prefer a dense bread to the fluffy nothingness that is shop bought white bread. I have tried to slice it thin enough to go in a toaster, but I need more practice slicing bread.

I like a good sourdough rye myself.

On the other hand, a homemade white loaf, made slowly with a preferment, only a little bit of yeast and good quality flour is a real thing of beauty; crisp crust, tender crumb, tangy flavour. The longer you take to make bread, the better it is. A standard sliced white loaf made by the Chorleywood process takes only a couple of hours at most from combining the ingredients to being sliced and in the bag and ready for shipping.

I've just put a little bit of E45 cream on some dry skin.

It's boss.

I don't know if they do soda farls, to be honest, but they do damn fine Guinness.

I managed to find one today who listened, maybe my opening line of "I am not having much luck finding someone who listens..." helped. I am picking a new car at 5pm today, less than 6 hours after walking in.

Well done to carman.

What sort of car?

You all should try making some Boston Brown Bread. Along with beans and the halibut, it's the schnizz.

That looks nice. Though a bit too much trouble for me to make.

What sort of car?

I have no idea what "sort" it is. It's a Hyundai iX35 so whatever sort that is. It's maybe an "evil death car" but I think it more likely to be a "pretendy evil death car"

It looks nice, and I look cool as f*ck when I glance at cyclists as I drive by them**...

*see below, there is no * reference...
