Just found the time to watch this through. Very instructive. Often we will get a turkey crown because we don't have so many coming for Christmas Day in recent years. We have a crowd coming this year this year I'm happy to say so it will be a big bird for us.

Armed with this knowledge I feel I could tackle an ostrich if need be.

It's kind of cool to see this guy do things the exact same way I do. Although I stick to chickens and guinea fowls, as there's only two of us here chez Casa Reynard.

The trick is knowing exactly where to stick the knife - that's as true for a cooked bird as de-boning a raw one.

The one thing I will do that he doesn't, is pick all the meat off the (cooked) carcass once the breasts, wings and legs have been removed. These "bits" are great for sandwiches, stir fries, cat snacks etc, and you can get a surprising amount of meat off the bones this way. And then, the bones themselves will go for stock.

And a manic working day ends

Alexa has just reminded me about the laundry. Not that I have an Alexa, nor am I doing laundry. This is because my mother doesn't have a smartphone so I set it up on mine. This means that I get regular reminders to take my diabetes medicine at 6pm.

In short no it's not more risky or common in rugby. You're right its just more in the news. Due to high profile former players a main one beingRob Burrows and his team mates having taken to make more aware of it.
MND is genetic won't go into and is very different to repeated head injuries in sport. It become a topic at ours in the last few years as Mrs 73 did work around it for her masters so plenty of research papers and work came my way. It's quite complex so won't go into the why's and how's but it's no longer in question It's an ever growing body of evidence and research. Commonly reported as dementia in former high profile footballers. But not limited to dementia or to football

Hope that help

Thanks . So it is genetic like my daughter's Behcets disease. Inflammation of the blood vessels anywhere in the body .

Nice enough morning and got out to get my ferry bookings done and check when the office is shut so I can get tickets in advance.
Some street gossip before getting back home and the light rain started.

The off-side rule - who knows it in detail. I thought it was the player that kicked the ball into goal that needed to have defenders between him and the goal. How can someone be off-side and a goal disallowed, if someone was off-side when they passed the ball to the person who passed it to the goal scorer?

Old Hall?

Old Hall?

If it is two words, second has an "M" in it.

You're saying he got it for free from the "Old Hall"! I didn't think he'd go so far. There has to be somewhere easier get into.

Oh that's not nice must be hard for her at times ?
In MND put simply the problem is the body attacks the outer protective coating on the neurons they becomes damaged.
Then become frayed and stop working in turn meaning muscles stop working.

Nothing. Were you expecting a serial number?

There appeared to be some mark there.

See now I want cheese and potato pie which means getting getting changed, boots on and going to the grocers.

It was absolutely delicious with brown sauce, yum!
