It's about 40 pages back but if you google it you should find it easy enough. There's loads of brilliant (& easy) recipes on the internet. We use ours all the time. Chicken curry on Saturday, sausage & red lentil hot pot yesterday. I think you're the first person I've ever heard who wasn't impressed with it. You soon will be!

If you can't find it I'll post it up again. No, there's no meat in it, but I suppose that you could always brown off some mince and lob it in. Love my slow cooker, especially whacking something in it on a Saturday morning so that when I arrive home from the match, pissed off and frozen to the marrow, I've got a hot, tasty meal ready for me

[General Mannerheim]

anybody down devon way - just had a fabulously unexpected meal (was expecting trad. bar food!) at The Jack in the Green gastro-pub, Whimple... (apparently voted 26th best gastro-pub in the UK or summat)

all washed down with a pint of Otter...

I was not expecting to find that at all! if you are down this way (it's very close to exeter airport) - then seek it out!

Next time I'm in London, so in about three weeks time then, I must eat here. It sounds fantastic.

I've just had some quinoa. Apparently it's pronounced 'Kin-wah'. You learn something new every day.

As Daniel Kitson said, it's hyperbowl all over again.

It's like having black pudding from Finland, there's no reason why not, but it's just wrong!

We're not, we're in the McPoseurs clan.

Scotland undoubtedly has many dishes to offer, but their humble potato soup has been in a position of excellence for many years for me. First had it at a hotel in Troon many years ago as an evening meal first course. It was terrific. They must have different potatoes or a secret recipe.

That'll be the special ingredient, they use for the English

They call it "man fat"
