    This might be a long shot, but I'm looking for an issue of Weekly Pro Wrestling from late 2000.

    I'm not sure of the exact date, but it had details and photos of Shinjiro Otani's visit to the UK.

    Do you know a good source for these?

    I've already tried Toudoukan, without any luck. Thanks in advance for any help.

    I was quite impressed by the vegan chicken and mushroom Pukka Pie the other day. Tasted spot on but more at home in the eat clean thread maybe.

    Still haven't managed to find these anywhere yet.

    I think Aldi is one of those places that doesn't always have regular lines, it's what they get in so there stick levels tend to fluctuate but most things circle back eventually.

     

    I used to love a bit of Beanfeast, not had it in a while, I'm sad to hear it's been discontinued

    Yeah, hopefully the stuff they're not currently doing will come back at some point.

    And yes, I'm sad enough to have contacted Bachelors about Beanfeast when I was having trouble finding it anywhere. They confirmed that it's been discontinued, with no plans to bring it back at the moment :(

    I've been vegetarian for 25+ years and for a long time have made my own veggie lasagnes.

    I used to use a packet mix called Beanfeast as the 'meat' for years, but they've stopped making it now, so I've been experimenting with alternatives. The best I've found so far is a Lloyd Grossman bolognese mix with lentils and various other stuff, which I heat and bulk up with Quorn mince.

    Up until not long ago, I was getting a lot of good veggie / vegan stuff from Aldi, but they seem to have reduced the range a bit just recently. Maybe they'll bring some of the stuff back on rotation.

    Nice. We'll be heading to either of those next month (maybe both). You get some unbelievable sunsets on the beaches of North Devon and North Cornwall.

    Definitely. I'm yet to make it to Lynton / Lynmouth at sunrise or sunset, but I've seen some spectacular shots from there too.

    Dream matches

    I would have loved Jim Cornette and the Eaton / Lane version of the Midnight Express to have had a year's run in the WWF after leaving WCW, similar to Tully and Arn a couple of years earlier, just for completeness' sake. Late 1990 / early 1991 WWF could have had the Midnight Express vs. The Rockers, or Hart Foundation, both of which I think could have been great.

    In terms of British wrestling, a couple of personal dream matches, from way back when, I'd love to watch would be Ken Joyce vs. Vic Faulkner and George Kidd vs. Zoltan Boscik. Might not mean anything to many people on here, but those are mine. I'm sure Kidd vs. Boscik must have happened, as did Kidd vs. Johnny Saint. Would have been great to see.
