Linda balls tonight - it was well worth a 7am trip to sainsburys before work yesterday.

I'm desperately hoping that the new oven will be able to cook yorkshire puddings.
Years ago we had delicious yourshires and toad in the hole and had perfected the recipe with the perfect rise and crispy / damp ratio, but the oven door smashed.
The replacement oven just wouldn't let them rise properly (or cakes or anything decent) so we've been starved.

The trick is to get the oven as hot as it will go, and heat the oil in the yorkie tins. Pour the batter in as fast as possible and don't open the door for 15 minutes or so, a little more for crispiness.

Recipe wise an egg heavy batter (like Jamie Oliver) results in very puffy puddings in my own experiences.

One of my favorite albums too

Late start today, only one job to do. The wife says "there's a spiders web on the ceiling, I meant to get the hoover on that"
I replied, "well it'll help fill your day in..."
Bloody dog house again...

I going to have to try these Linda balls.

I suspect the old oven door was warped as it just wouldn't cook anything properly, really glad to see the back of it.

I'll send some up via hermes.
By the time they get there they'd have evolved to a point where they can unwrap themselves.

Can we take bets on your punishment?
I'm going for 3 hours of silence and the event will be refereed to again both this evening and on boxing day.

Brains for dinner, brains for lunch, brains for breakfast, brains for brunch,
Brains are all we ever need in this forsaken place,
Brains are all we ever get - we never need a change of pace!

Day One mistake. And a bad one too.

You could ask her to give the dog house a quick clean for you

I have no idea what your talking about... so I assume Linda is the name of the big burly bloke next door

Blunt, ..... but highly accurate.

I have my brief moments of clarity...

I remember buying 'walk among us' on green vinyl from kensington market back in the day.
It's a common pressing but means a lot to me!

My ex used to do the "I'm not speaking to you thing". I used to ask if it was a promise.

She lied.

I'm sure that will go over like a lead balloon...

The real irony is that Pot Noodles are as veggie as Linda Balls, and were on sale long before.
