Oh, yeah. Sure. Just go ahead and try to ruin my day. You won't ruin it. I won't let you.

I'll put my fingers in my ears and go "Wah, wah, wah, . . ."

Fere libenter homines id quod volunt credunt.

Stop the madness! Oh, the humanity!

No matter who developed the 'Scotch' egg, I find them at the Scottish events that I attend and they are so good!

I still like scotch eggs (and roses).

I wonder if there is an Indian version of Scotch eggs ? (Not just Scotch eggs with curry powder in the sausage meat !)

Too true, they wear their jeans no where near as tight, nor as low as on this side of the pond!

Nargis kebabs - they were made on a BBC2 program recently - I think it is called Mum knows best, and it is presented by 'the hairy bikers' a pair of motorcycling cooks who tour Britain seeking out regional and quality foods and recipes.

If you go to the BBC website there are all sorts of recipes seen on the program, the scotch egg variants were in the second program, Picnics.

There is a recipe for sticky date cake made by the boiling method - not seen much these days but very British cooking rather than French cuisine.

Not something to be watching when trying to lose weight though.
