Re: Top 5 of all time...
You can tell someone is a ‘foodie’ when their guilty pleasure needs a trip to M&S and contains foreign cheese. Sounds amazing though. That’s going to be my lunch on Saturday!Bruce Rioja wrote: ↑Tue Apr 06, 2021 9:36 amSimilar to BWFC-I, if you like it, go for it

Re: Top 5 of all time...
Definitely worth knocking up your own tartare sauce too if you're struggling to find the good stuff. This is made up from stuff I generally have in anyway; https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/quic ... auce_67777BWFC_Insane wrote: ↑Tue Apr 06, 2021 11:13 amYou can tell someone is a ‘foodie’ when their guilty pleasure needs a trip to M&S and contains foreign cheese.

Re: Top 5 of all time...
No need. All that is needed is some sausage meat, mix with some sage and then flatten into burgers and cook. Halve an English muffin and toast the inside. Fry an egg in as circular-a-way as you can. Stick on a cheap and nasty plastic cheese slice (the cheaper and nastier the better) and melt a bit, and bob is indeed your uncle......Worthy4England wrote: ↑Tue Apr 06, 2021 1:32 pmWhilst on the topic of guilty pleasures, Uber Eats delivers MCD'sdave the minion wrote: ↑Tue Apr 06, 2021 1:30 pmA home made MCDs brekkie also a good shout and dead simple - recipes all over t'internet and taste amazing (without having to leave the comfort of your home or guilty pleasure PJs/loungewear of choice...)

Fair point - hard to argue with - but the unseen value to having created such a thing in your own kitchen is worth something.....BWFC_Insane wrote: ↑Tue Apr 06, 2021 2:09 pmOr click an app select sausage egg McMuffin.

I did this a couple of times during lockdown (without a recipe ), with surprisingly good results. Miss BP was a big fan of them.

Re: Top 5 of all time...
I usually use Squig square sausages, which, other than for the shape, obviously, are a fairly close match to McD's sausages.dave the minion wrote: ↑Tue Apr 06, 2021 2:07 pmNo need.

No fecker delivers anything here. Nearest McD or chain takeaway is over 3 hours away. Birdseye chicken dippers and airfryer chips is about as exciting as it gets here.Worthy4England wrote: ↑Tue Apr 06, 2021 1:32 pmWhilst on the topic of guilty pleasures, Uber Eats delivers MCD'sdave the minion wrote: ↑Tue Apr 06, 2021 1:30 pmA home made MCDs brekkie also a good shout and dead simple - recipes all over t'internet and taste amazing (without having to leave the comfort of your home or guilty pleasure PJs/loungewear of choice...)

Re: Top 5 of all time...
On the plus side, I was looking at Covid cases today and Bolton alone has about 100 more then the entirety of West Sussex, I’d imagine it’s fairly minimal in your part of Scotland too. Least we will be able to stay alive to eat food (that isn’t McDonalds)Abdoulaye's Twin wrote: ↑Tue Apr 06, 2021 7:10 pmNo fecker delivers anything here.

Re: Top 5 of all time...
I unfortunately we don't have a scooby what's going on as we're lumped in with about half of Scotland. Meaning all the cases could be near me, or not. We were hard hit early on with a lot of deaths in our local care home. Sadly customers and relatives of our customers.Gooner Girl wrote: ↑Tue Apr 06, 2021 7:26 pmOn the plus side, I was looking at Covid cases today and Bolton alone has about 100 more then the entirety of West Sussex, I’d imagine it’s fairly minimal in your part of Scotland too.

Re: Top 5 of all time...
All about times'. I'm not going to even pretend that the early Beatles era wasn't massive fun, along with Cat Stevens, Dave Clark Five, Donovan etc, etc. Course they were. There were hundreds of bands bashing the skins and strings back then. We just grew with them, Dylan, Mamas and Papas, Stones, ever onwards. It was a brilliant time. I loved all of it. How can I pick five? ...

Not worst, as far as I can recall...Bruce Rioja wrote: ↑Sat Apr 10, 2021 1:03 pmHave we had one of these on worst gigs / bands seen etc. Yet?
1) Human League at Apollo, dragged there by missus. Awful
2) probably Iron Maiden (who have been excellent when I saw them in the 80's), but 30 years later, time to pack away the spandex
3) Lindisfarne. Why did I go?
4) James Last. Wasn't actually inside the gig. Queueing an all nighter at the Apollo for tickets the next day...what was that all about?
5) struggling to get 5th...after "cheating" on 4th
