  1. I’m glad I’m not the only one that thought that.
  2. I Think there's enough rubbish in the Ocean already TBH. 🤢
  3. Ach-y-fi why on earth would you do that to cheese? I Can only imagine it tastes like cheese flavoured toothpaste. The name suits it though.
  4. As long as you ain't putting tinned cheese on your pancakes Chas! No Amount of shriving could absolve you from that one!
  5. I Don't eat a lot of processed food Lois, I just wasn't brought up on it. My Grandfather was brought up on a farm in rural Poland and was completely perplexed when he joined the Merchant Navy in the 40's and came across the first tin of food he had ever seen.
  6. Classic! 😂🥳😂🥳😂🥳 Have you booked it yet?
  7. What are these abominations? They couldn’t possibly have ever been near any self respecting cow/sheep/goat/buffalo or animal that chooses to identify as one of the above!
  8. I’m 100% with Chrys on that one. Celery is the work of the Devil. Those masterpieces of finely fermented and coagulated dairy deserve nothing less than a fresh loaf, a few good grapes, a sliver of home made quince jelly and a tot of Blandys. Crudités are as offensive as the name would suggest.
  9. Good grief! Is it like silly string? Well I suppose if I was stranded on a desert Island with a tin it could come in handy as a sunblock. Here’s a pic of my favourite local cheesemonger’s counter. The only pressure there is from the queue behind you as you work your way through the counter with a face like a miser in a goldmine.
  10. Obviously not. I Have heard legends from old sailors that in far off lands you may encounter cheese in a tin but I suppose I’d filed it alongside “here be dragons” and never expected to be confronted with the true horror of such atrocities.
  11. Noooo its from the skirt, Fantastic, tender cut that was known as a butchers steak because they always kept them for themselves!
  12. I Must confess my ignorance as I'm usually bewildered by the American terms used to describe steaks. The one I do understand is a Fillay which translates to a fillet. The rest gets googled! I Now know what to ask for if I fancy a Butchers Cut!
  13. That was the one that caught my eye too Terry but I think only 5 ports on a 13 nighter is a little sparse for my taste. That's the only thing stopping me from booking. Had they have thrown in a stop, for instance, at the Andaman Islands rather than just sailing by them then the itinerary would have been more enticing.
  14. The jodphurs aren’t compulsory btw, just an example of the discretionary nature of the long Johns. I’m sure they’d be just as discreet under something nice and flowing by Valentino.
  15. Yup. They’ve got to be Jobbystoppers though, tucked into your socks. It’s not very elegant having all of that spare fabric flapping about!
  16. Silk Long Johns are the answer. 🙂 When I used to muck out the horses at 6am in the depth of a British winter they are the difference between life and death. People can't even tell you're wearing them with a pair of Jodphurs on.
  17. If anyone has a spare 33 minutes of their life they'll never want back then the first instalment of my India trip has just uploaded to Youtube.
  18. Haha, no wonder you were warmer than me on the Mersey Ferry that day!
  19. I'm sure you'd look great M, Im not sure its very serviceable in a Canadian winter though. Perhaps take a couple of fashion tips from the fabulous Julie Walters and wear it over a couple of foundation layers.
  20. It is nice in silk as you barely know it's there. There's a perfect passport sized pocket in the back which is great for going through airports as you don't need to faff and then when through it all it goes into one of the zipped pockets on the front.
