Had 5 nights away last week on a C&CC THS at Dalby Forest, great for dog walking, also had a day in Whitby. After having a walk around, we went up the 199 steps to Whitby Abbey, no we did not see Dracula, but the Whitby micro-brewery. Great beers, I was driving so had to be careful, the Whitby Whaler was very good, but the…
Thanks to fellow CTer Pliers, we paid a visit to this shop in Clitheroe this morning. What a fab place - about 50 different varieties of sausage on sale, plus award winning black pudding! And they put out trays to sample on the counter - almost like getting a cooked breakfast free of charge! For the record, we finally…
Late April brought Piccolo Tomatoes from Aldi. Says grown in UK- Yorkshire Grown.Can this be true? If so no need to worry about imported fruit and veg post Brexit. Again why are the pundits blaming price hikes on Brexit if we are growing the veg here? Smoke & Mirrors perhaps. Anyone else know of home grown produce that can…
I'm looking at buying a George Foreman indoor/outdoor grill, very much like a Cadac but runs on electric. I cant find out how much power it requires and wondered if anyone has one of these, if so does it work ok on site or does it trip? Thanks.
* As we are all into health being caravanners- This should interest just about everyone! About 3 weeks ago I was contacted by my son who asked me to go to YouTube and watch a video called ' The journey of water' This video is of a lecturer in front of a class telling them about the appalling state of our water and the…
Mrs One is quite partial to a glass or two of Gallo White Greneche Rose wine. In the UK this normally cost £6.90 unless you buy 6 bottles with a special offer price of £5/bottle. Went into a Real supermarket in Germany and their special offer price £3/bottle. Will go back on Thursday and buy another couple of cases.
A dislike of mine is to be served my restaurant meal on a flat piece of wood or other strange object. One wrong move and chips, peas and assorted other ingredients fall off onto the table or the floor. Sometimes the situation is made worse by the fact that some parts of the meal are in their own separate containers which…
I have devised some low calorie meals. OH gas lost over 69 stones gradually over two years. As I do nearly all evening meals I have worked up some low calorie ones. I will try and post one every couple of days if folk are interested. I have calorie counted them all but have not allowed for a drop of oil in cooking if not…
Has anyone else noticed the poor quality of bananas over at least the last month. We have bough some at Aldi, Lidl, Tesco, Morisons and last week at Waitrose. All look OK on the outside but invariably they are rotten or dark inside. To some extent we have had to throw about a third of each away. Not buying anymore.
You'll have to go easy with me, I'm a bloke that does little to no cooking at home and I maybe asking the impossible but here goes. We have a two ring gas stove with a grill below it. The grill is thermally lined and is really quite large. I just wondered is there is a technique to use the grill compartment as an oven? It…
