What you having for your Tea/Dinner, tonight. ?

[T1 Terry]

I really enjoyed eating haggis when I worked up in Edinburgh, especially the free range stuff, but I like faggots of the eating variety too.

You wouldn't really know it was offal when you eat it.

Had to Google what a "faggot of the eating variety" was, the mind was spinning regarding a specialty dish Hanabal Lecter would enjoy

We are looking forward to Beef and red wine pies, with potato big round chips done in the air fryer and baby peas It was going to be pie floaters, but we didn't have any of the cheap plain pies left, it would have been a waste to use these gourmet pies for that ......

Spent last week taking 7 sheep to the abattoir and then butchering and jointing them , best bits , liver, heart and kidneys in onion gravy with mashed spuds. Next best , skirt , roasted until crispy then chewed and crunched like pork scratchings. French BP is awful , ( no pun ) sorry Archev you are wrong , see if you have enough range to get you to Bury Market the official centre of the BP universe.! You can get it at Tescos in vacuum packs , but not quite the same.

Aye the Bury stuff is good and comes a commendable second to Stornoways speciality IMHO
My Dad started working life as an apprentice Blacksmith and often had folk come in to the smiddy with a sheep’s head to have the hairs singed off with a red hot iron bar. The head was then boiled with veggies to make wonderful Sheep’s heid broth. Fine if it’s a wee bit Salty and you don’t know what’s in it

That is known as a deluxe bake dinner on a lazy cooking night .... the standard bake dinner is just Aldi bake beans on toast with shredded lactose free cheese on top .... Love fried Black Pudding, have a few specialty small goods butchers around the area that make a really good one.

Now that IS bloody offal - but I like it. Have you tried the black pudding from the centre of the BP universe ? - Stornoway

Can't say I have. But it would have to go some. To beat, Bury Black Puddings, from
Bury Market. Where you can also get Parched Peas, and Baby Potatoes with loads of Butter! Mmmm!

Totally agree!

Their nice new rapid build boat should be on the Arran run then I think so that’ll free off a rowing boat for the Stornaway smooth crossing

Lovely chatting but I gotta go make my haggisarnies and go. The Citroën awaits with its preferred breakfast of watts in wires and I’ve no idea where we might go. I’ll post a picture.
