Chicken soup imo is best home made by boiling up a left over carcass from the Sunday roast with chef’s base, a bouquet garni from the garden (if you have one) and a couple of whole garlic cloves (skin left on). Add orzo 20mins from the end and a bit of tarragon. Don’t really like tinned chicken soup.

And savers. Just relieved I'm on a fixed mortgage until 2025, I'm praying everything is back to normal by then as I can't afford a few more hundred a month. Not good for savers because very few banks are passing on the interest rate rises, or if they do it has to be dragged out of them, and even th...

Heinz Pea ‘n Ham is excellent.

Another shout for pea and ham but Baxter’s is by far the best. Very difficult to get hold of in Burnley but managed to get some from Spar on Padiham Rd.

Heinz oxtail is excellent poured over chips. Makes the best chip butties. Now there is a childhood memory.

We lost our 15 year old springer spaniel and 19 year old cat Mr Whiskers in the same year, in 2018. That was hard to take. My advice is after a period of time, get back in the saddle, so to speak. We now have a sprocker spaniel that we got as a puppy in 2019. His personality is different in some way...

I once heard their are more natural objects in the galaxies than grains of sand on Earth. I was dubious but as the galaxies are infinite it could well be true.

I can’t really say a favourite. Too many. Lodi comes to mind along with ‘Rain’ but love the album track Ramble Tamble from Cosmo’s Factory, almost hypnotic but still hard rockin.

Brilliant guitar solo on that track. Try Pagan Baby, the first track on Pendulum, another great guitar solo.

Oddly I’ve been listening to a lot of CCR recently. First band I saw live. For anyone who hasn’t heard it try Fogertys album Wrote a Song for Everyone.

It was a long and bitter fight between him and his record company to the point where he was once sued by Saul Zaentz for plagiarising his own music. Apparently the melody of Old Man Down the Road was too much like Run Through the Jungle. Thrown out of court needless to say.

I wasn’t trying to be “careful” when I made that joke. Blue Lab was (is?) one of the most antisemetic people I’ve ever encountered in the wild, and I’m sure she would consider herself of “the left”, so I’ll happily admit it’s a problem on both sides.

Quick question, Why is “globalist parasite” anti semitic? And right there is the rub. Greenmile himself is being, inadvertently maybe, antisemitic because he sees the term global parasite and immediately thinks that refers to Jewish people. To quote a phrase “unconscious bias”. Maybe because that i...

As the last 2 posts have said, VAR should be used in all games within the same competition or none at all.

Why was VAR even involved when it wasn’t at a whole host of other 3rd round ties? How can it be fair to use VAR for some ties and not others? If the technology is not available for all cup ties it shouldn’t be used at any of them.

Having watched MOTD and having slept on it, I still think that the 4th goal “mistake” was deliberate by the Everton defender. That back pass was too poor to be just a mistake. It was just the right weight and straight into the path of the Brighton player. It wasn’t even in a direct line to the keeper.

I got done 2 years ago going through Higherford and Blacko at about 5:30am when I was doing some contract work in Settle just before I retired. No complaints, I was over the limit and the cameras picked it up so those at least work ok.
