I missed the quiz, although looking at the prizes I am quite glad :rotfl:

Been to post office..some peeps best look out for some odd looking parcels that don't fit through letterboxes...:rotfl:

I'm with Numpty on the pea front - can't stand the things!

The 2nd set of photos do look rather 'undergrowth' like - all leaf and no substance! Although Snaggles' description has had me giggling too - thankfully I'm on my own in the office! So lead swinging going on here too!

Sally - matched betting does look rather complicated doesn' it?!

Snaggles

Sammy I thought you'd given up your letterbomb campaign against the estate agents of Bromsgrove?

have been reading matched betting :eek:

I read that the other day, it is one of them things that you do need someone sat with you for the first 500 times so you understand it:p

I really could do with understanding itfully, i can grasp the principles of it, just not the technique:D

I was guessing pea n ham soup (very 70's!) for starter, we now know what the fish course is! So main course is lamb shank and some poshly titled vegetables? Then pudding is something like, oh I don't know, rose ice cream in a brandy snap basket, with some kind of pistachio choc cake, with a thislyis fruit thing - possibly!

Pretty good guesses there!

Spinach soup, soya cream and red pepper sauce with garlic croutons
Deep fried whiting with tomato and cardamom relish
Osso-buco of pork with maple and star anise
Blood orange sorbet (no mention of the choc thing )

and the other two are
Marinated langoustines with coconut risotto
Ballotine of duck with beetroot and caraway served with seasonal vegetables

Sounds better than it looks!

Not sure about that. I have a degree(s) in physics, and it does my head in.
