Mine's a large then. On second thoughts I ate Dunsyre Blue during one of your barbecues, so it had better be an XXXL then....

Jr still has some (and some Lanark Blue) in his freezer, might be worth his while keeping it and then putting it up on eBay as a rarity in a few months

Wow , great post, enjoyed your cooking one too. Looks like you had a great trip. Loved the photos especially the space man, when was that carved?
Ex Eric Von Daniken, think that spelling is right,sucker here, so please dont kid me
Other questions are do you have a saturated fat bleed off valve fitted and if so where did you get it, I am a serial kebab/cheese offender and could seriously do with one.
Ringing the Kebaby on my mobile as I write.
Nothing like your posts to get the gastric juices flowing!
And whats with the Spam thing?
Spam fritter addict also

Apparently the stonework on the cathedral was restored in 1992 and the stonemasons gave it that personal touch I think Erich von Däniken might not have been too far off the mark with some of his theories.

Spam - it's a long story - best related over a few beers on a campsite - whilst barbecuing Spam

A wizard of the keyboard fiddly bits too!
Thanks, I feel much better about Eric now.
And that sounds like the Kebab has arrived, happy days

Just had my large seekh kebab on naan with doubly-hot chilli sauce. So underrated as a breakfast meal I find

I was thinking exactly that as i tucked into my breakfast of bran and prune juice before settling down to read my book on aerobics, pilates and mindfullness.

Reminds me of a former (pre-Bongo) life when I took Jr to Silverstone to watch some racing. We were camping near the circuit and in the morning Jr returned from the latrines to sheepishly tell me that everyone else appeared to be having cornflakes for their breakfast....



There's nothing sets you up for the day quite like freshly barbecued chilli-burgers and a plastic beaker of red wine

Happy Days.

Large whisky in my coffee is my starter for the day when I am not working, then a number 4 with fried bread at the cafe.
Only then do I take my statins and BP tablets, they make me queezy on an empty stomach.

It's taken some time but finally it's gone to a Turkish scrapyard

And that is such a shame

Indeed, an embarrassment as we're now without a single aircraft carrier until around 2020 when the new Queen Elizabeth and Prince of Wales are due to be operational. So until then we're going to have to suck up to His Trumpness if we need any assistance anywhere

Can't see any problem with that. After all we'll have Nige as our US Ambassador. Interesting times

Do we have any planes suitable for / needing a carrier these days? (F35 maybe - bloody expensive combo - bit like a T5 Californian of the waves ha ha)
