    Thats a tenna lady thread pink :rotfl:
  • Love the old thread.... I got a good deal on pig pieces this week, so brawn is on my Saturday List.
    I need a bigger pan!
  • Yes, I will try brawn as well I think. Hope it will be received well.

    Did have a giggle about the old suggestions :-)

    I'm not convinced the OP in that thread ever did cook the head.


    It's probably still at the bottom of her freezer.
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Although I remember as a child eating pigs head broth, thinking about it now is absolutely disgusting.

    Man, youre going to be eating the brains and the snot, I feel the same way about Greggs sausage rolls, yak, yak, yak.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    Oh, of course - that's the Philips Sonicare Boiled Pigs Head Teeth Burnishing Tool Attachment, available in a Boots near you soon!



    So, along with shaving it, blowing its nose, clearing its earwax, giving it a scale and polish and exfoliating the blemishes, next thing you'll know, someone will point out you're supposed to give it a thin layer of self tan and some eyeliner.......


    You know what? I think I'm going to to have egg and chips for tea tonight..................
