Don't worry, those that have had a wank over Penny Mordaunt or Priti Patel are ahead of you in queue to get into hell.

@air_raid’s fault.  Lured me in, now nothing.

No pufflings yet!

I got ever so slightly hungry at work yesterday and figured only this place would be proud of how much indigestion I had after.

5 bacon, 5 sausage, 6 hash browns, 4 eggs, 2 (4) slices of toast and three portions of beans.

It's always funny when the old boys in the bar see a small 5 foot 7 geeky looking guy wolf down food for fun.

Greedy fucker.  I salute you.

Hey gang. Looking for someone to sell me on buying a proper heavyweight casserole dish, rather than just using a normal cooking pot with a lid for everything like I currently do. 

I know theoretically why they are better, but to what extent do they make a noticeable difference to food? What are the scenarios in which they make the most difference? 

I’ve always had an iron heavyweight casserole dish since getting married and haven’t really used anything else.  The heat distribution is very even and heat retention is top notch.  It just feels right as well using a heavy pot for these things.  Drop them, they don’t break, but can fuck your toes up grand style.

The Rockwell Dabba.  I guess from the top clockwise Chilli powder, Tumeric, Cumin Seeds, Cocaine, Garamond Masala, Mustard Seeds and Cloves in the middle.

I assume the bottom bit is fish, what's the other one?

It’s a Scallop, also know as a potato fritter.  

Tonight’s bit of lovely from the Seashell in Heaton Moor.  Curry sauce and a pile of bread off camera.

I used to play Space Hulk a fair bit (the original version, that had the Genestealer and Deathwing expansion packs), but it's just sat on a shelf for years as I've nobody to play it with now, and also don't really have the space to set it up.

I have a bunch of Space Marines, along with a couple of Rhinos and Land Raiders, that I used to like modding and painting, but I never got into Warhammer 40K properly.

Worth a bit on EBay.

Not played either Warhammer in years.  My miniature gaming of choice that the moment is Frostgrave.  More of a Skirmish, but great fun.

I will obviously impress you all with the fact that I was mentioned in the acknowledgements section of the first printing of Warhammer 40,000, Rogue Trader.

Just tap Norm MacDonald in YouTube and watch a couple of clips.  Every day in your feed you will then find some Norm goodness.  Some new to you, some you’ve seen before but all great.

Real real men remember her from Summer School!

Greatest Garden Centre ever was the Overstrand Cottage Garden Centre in Cromer, until that rotten, stinking bastard Mark Edwards bought it.

The fucker.

Happened across a movie on Netflix called Eli tonight.  It’s about a boy with an immunity problem who goes for some revolutionary treatment.  Won’t say any more, but really enjoyed it.

You don’t know you need new slippers until you wear new slippers.

Dave from Gogglebox.  A beautiful lad.

I’m at half mast.

Always happy to get that email about a new vid or article from our Spud!

Highlight for me was Prince Naan doing a happy dance round the ring.  Such a dick, cracks me up.

Got some really nice chino’s for my Holls from Debenhams.  Some shorts too.

Leave a woman unsatisfied.

You did your best for him, as he did for you.

Wonderful game Wingspan.  Still have loads of fun with the basic game.  I’ve got all the expansions, but I only go to expansions when I’m bored of the original and that’s yet to happen.

Mum.  Who’s the bloke they are all talking about on that documentary tonight?

 Me.  It’s Russell Brand.

 Mum.  Oh that’s dreadful.  Used to love him when he read the stars on TVAM…..
