Re: Crumpets!

I can't really believe the pikelet and crumpet debate is still going strong. just google photos of the two, and then it is quite clear that they are crumpets :P

Re: Driving me nuts!!

I've never heard that before. I can't remember any of the hymms we used to sing except for , oh come all ye faithful, but I think we only sang that around christmas time. :grin:

Re: Warning - Are you Easily Conned?

That is terrible. But if they are trying to present themselves as a reputable company then they should have some sort of money back guarentee? Presumably there was some sort of contract involved and you didn't just send the money from paypal to a complete stranger?

Re: Your Lasagne recipes if you pls

Does anyone have any nice vegetarian lasagne recipes? My lad has decided he is a veggie and lasagne has always been his favourite dish so I wouldn't mind trying out a veggie one?

Re: Stupid Computer

Are you sure you're not accidently hitting a button or knocking the mouse when you're typing. My old man had the same problem, so I watched him type and he was banging some button by mistake each time and it kept sending him back to the start of the text. :wink:

Re: Crumpets!

They're definitely not pikelets. Also I think pikelets are sweet wheras crumpets are savoury. I love to dollop a load of butter onto my crumpets. I love when the plate is covered in hot butter and you and try and soak it up with the crumpet as your eating. :grin:

Re: Guess which book

Jane Eyre is a wonderful book. I remember reading it when I was a youngster. Gosh, its been so long. I think I need to pick it up from the library and give it another read! :P

Re: How do you take yer Brew?

I'm really bad actually, I take 3 spoons of sugar in my pg tips, and drown it in milk. Not as bad as my old man is these days though, drinks herbal teas with a load of milk in it, couldn't think of owt worse.

My wife uses one which she found on the BBC website and it is absolutely lovely. Have a look on there, I think it is this one http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/applepie_89624 . It is beautiful, or maybe it is just the way my wife cooks it...

Re: Welcome in the new season(Premier League that is!!)

That is quite possibly the strangest reason for supporting a team that I have come across before, and I have come across a lot. I grew up in Liverpool, so you are either a red or a blue. I had a friend who told me that the reason he started supporting liverpool was because he had a crush on an olde...

Re: Nostalgic Food

Pomegranates remind me of my nan, and whenever I see them in the shops, which is rarely, I remember her. Also, vanilla ice cream in lemonade. It makes me feel a bit ill at the thought of it, but thats what we used to eat. :P

Re: Riots in London

One thing I struggle to understand is how going into a shop which is selling, I dont know, shoes or something like that and taking out adidas trainers and the like is related to protesting against the unnecessary violence of the police. Protest is one thing, and is important in a democracy but loot...

Re: Petrol prices.

Its unbelievable how much they keep hiking it up. I can't believe it sometimes when I drive past the garages now, it weren't this bad even a few years back. It is just terrible you know. We're thinking of getting rid of the car, cheaper to jump on the buses and that. Also might be able to treat the...

Re: A really good read
