    I prepare my Reindeer by getting it drunk and telling it it won't hurt so much and then when he's off his gaurd .....WHACK!!!!!! baseball bat with good swing...works most times.......

    No really only joking ...I've never ever killed an animal in my life..just so thats straight.

    Reindeer Stew.

    700 g bone free Reindeer
    1 Onion
    3 carrots
    half a cellery root
    5-6 crushed Juniper berries
    4 dl wine or water Guinness is good too
    lots of fresh Mushrooms
    5 tablespoons sour cream
    1 dl milk
    2 table spoons flour
    3 tbls Blackcurrant jucie
    Thyme

    Brown the meat off (By telling it old jokes) A little at a time boiling water in between brownings to get all the juices put over in a cast iron pan
    Cut your onion in boats and sliceand dice your carrot and cellery brown thoose in the pan too. Add to the meat
    Crush your Juniper berries and put them in the pan together with the meat and veg let it all simmer for 30mins
    Brown your Mushrooms
    stir your sour cream melk flour and add to the pot with the blackcurrent juice ,salt and pepper

    let it simmer together for 20mins more.
    serve with potatoes and cranberries

    One ingredient would also be to add some slices of brown Norwegian goats cheese (The cheese not the goats). This give it a certian somthing

    Finally send the antlers to me .....
    PS. you can use beef if you don't have a reindeer passing by
    All the Best.....David.

    I'll bet the boneless reindeer have lots of trouble walking. As for the taxes, balance that against services and benefits. Granted in the US we pay less, but we get almost nothing in return.

    while I was in the UK, a daily newspaper carried results of a survey as to the top 10 place for a holiday.

    Canada came in at No.1
    UK was about fourth
    Australia was second.

    from memory USA didn't make it.

    Personally,
    1. Scotland
    2. Ireland
    3. Canada
    4. wales

    I didn't rate Australia 'cos I live here.


    What is you list?

    David, saw the antler use, so I get that. Do you use the hide or leather?
    Might make an interesting sporran with the hair left on.

    David We use only the antlers Reindeer hides in Norway are quite common. Many use them when camping as a sleeping mat the course hair serves as a good matress.

    The leather hides we use for our sporrans are funiture grade cow hides think the softest leather sofa you have ever sat in.

    We have experimented with some pelts. However allergies have put a stop to a lot of it.

    Fav holiday spots

    Canada
    Scotland
    New Zealand
    USA
    Ireland
    Greece
    Iceland
    Austrailia

    I've only been to Scotland, Ireland, Greece on this list .the others are places I'd like to go to if I get rich.Englands not included as I'm from there

    Of course I'd love to visit anywhere where I have internet mates
