Yes. No problem though. I thought for a minute it was because they were poisonous ;-)

How about a cobbler?

Should have done that 2 years ago.

A new use for the term 'bat for the other side'.

Great. More 3 page life stories about someone's partner and their fur babies and puppers (I hate that term with a passion) before you get to the recipe.

Sticking with DDG but going to retest Kagi, as DDG seems to be slipping.

It would appear that Israel will be allowed free rein.

I used to feel supportive of them. Not anymore though. Not a supporter of Hamas either.

Religion has a lot to answer for.

Had to check in with his handler at some point.

So does that mean this UN mission has failed then? A quick look suggests they are supposed to be keeping Hezbollah out of the picture and Israeli forces out of Lebanon. All of it wasted, there are over 10000 UN personnel there. Since they first went there in 1978 it seems they've been as much use as a sock on a fish.

I’m confused why they keep buying more reusable bags when they forget to bring some.

I see you've met my wife. I have about a dozen in the boot of my car. I even had one in my hand the other day but she still bought a couple in Asda. One of them didn't even make it to the car!

It's a constant struggle.

Good luck with that. After all it worked so well with cigarettes.

 

Am trying to make a dark rye loaf like you'd find on a stall or in a shop. Not the really dense 'pumpernickel' style but round or oblong tin shaped.

Have tried various percentages of strong dark rye, muscovado sugar and black treacle but the loaf is still not that dark. I did try some cocoa in one loaf but that just gave an odd colour.

Am using a Panasonic bread machine and in over 5 years it's only ever produced a couple of duff loaves - which were down to me (forgetting yeast, mixer blade or water) and often use it for the dough function and then finish in oven. Am not averse to resorting to full manual though if needed.

Any ideas?

TIA

 

This will be the straw that breaks the camel's back for me.
