I love kiddies. Couldn't eat a whole one though <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->



Sounds like we have an "activity". I'll get the sharp knives out once we've all had a few drinks <!--emo&:Aaarghh:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/4013/140/emo/pirate.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pirate.gif' /><!--endemo-->



KW is turning up about 6pm and I can't start cooking until he gets here. Starters should be ready by 7pm. I'm still in "cleaning frenzy" so don't arrive too early or you won't be able to sit down!

Loved the hat! You left it here btw. I'll keep it safe, and I'm working on a witchy smilie <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->



I think it went OK. With hind site, the weather was lovely on Saturday so it would have been good to do the burgers on the BBQ rather than on Sunday when it was precipitating it down.



I also think the drunken apples and pears needed a LOT more booze! Next time I'll add some spirits after they're cooked, because I think I boiled off most of the alcohol. I also forgot to put the cloves in. It's a new recipe for me and still needs tweaking, but I thought they were rather tasty anyway and I've just finished them up.



I'm not eating any meat in the run-up to Diwali, so having eaten my own body weight in pig-sheep this weekend I think I'll last quite well <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Yep, that works better. I made a mini one-pear version with about twice as much gin as I used for 5 people, and I remembered the cloves.



*hic*



I did forgotted the Nutmeg though. Next time I'll get it right <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Ostara & Roasted Pig



I bought a large pork joint on Saturday. KW and I ate a little of it, and I used some of it for a stew. I've just de-boned it, rolled it up and stuck it in the freezer. The bone is boiling now and I'll have that for tea tonight.



The boneless rolled joint weighs in at 3lb 12oz. Does anyone want to help me eat it because it's a bit big for two!? I was thinking next weekend is Ostara which might be a good excuse <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->



Anyone free?

I don't think we'll be able to make it on this occasion, Mr Red has some pretty serious work to do on Gordon <!--emo&:whip:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/4013/140/emo/whip.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='whip.gif' /><!--endemo--> and we're going to try and get some house viewings in (if I can find any likley candidates at least) so we'll already be pretty busy.



I'll see what comes up during the house hunt today, and have a chat with the Mister about it, one of us will get back to you asap.

Yep it does rather sound like you have "important things" afoot.



The pig will keep for quite a while in the freezer. If I accidentally eat it, I'll get another one.

Hold that thought, we might be able to make it!



The work on Gordon, while serious, won't take long and I should be able to do it on Saturday.



It all depends on house viewings - we should hopefully be able to find out what's going on tomorrow, and we'll let you know then. <!--emo&:good:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/4013/140/emo/good.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='good.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Coolio. I just need to do a booze run if you're coming, but I can do that Saturday lunch time so I really don't need a lot of notice!



I was going to do it on Asda online, but that's on hold for now...

Hey JJ, are we still welcome tomorrow night? We haven't had a call about the house yet so we may be free tomorrow after all. Red reckons he can get Gordon done in the afternoon, so the timing is the only thing we won't really know yet.



Part of me is hoping that they call tomorrow morning and we can view the same day, but I'm not holding my breath. Let me know if we're causing a problem. <!--emo&:whistle:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/4013/140/emo/eusa_whistle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='eusa_whistle.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I guess I need to know by about 4pm if we're going to eat before midnight <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I'm sure we can manage that <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo--> TBH, even if they call we should still be able to come, the office closes at 14:00 I think so we'd know by then.



Shall I text?

tbh I tend not to hear my texts, so posting on here is more likely to reach me <!--emo&:shame:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/4013/140/emo/shame.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='shame.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Fair enough. I've convinced myself already that we won't get a call today, I'm disappointed but more importantly it means another weekend of uncertainty which is rubbish!



Mr Red is going to get on with Gordon after breakfast (well, when he wakes up anyway) and I'm going to sort out some plants. We'll definitely be coming to yours tonight so what time do you want us?



xx
