  • Anyhow back to the programme Wednesday should be interesting as I think I am right in saying that the Lambs to the slaughter are all male students - It will be interesting to see what Allegra and Paul come up with:rolleyes: probably HM pizza for a start.
    Anyone got any ideas?:rotfl:

    But the also did the N something word with lamb too on two shows?

    HM pizza has to be a cert! Pasta bakes. But i wonder what the bedrock will be ? Probably mince (as it is obviously cheap) and maybe sausages? I dunno! Beans ? Noodles? Thats what i would imagine anyway. I want to watch it now!

    Would be good to see mince with a different tumbledowns completely.

    I imagine soups & broths possibly?

    Maybe I am being a bit sensitive but I was really shocked at the response i got yesterday when i gave my personal view of this programme and looking through the recent posts it seems everyone is getting jumped on!!!! Sometimes I hold back from posting for fear of this kind of thing and this subject has confimed my fears :( I think i shall remain a reader from now on

    PLEASE Don't let this thread be a representation of OS. I have found it the friendliest of the boards. I have been away a while but am surprised too to see the errm agitation (?) in this thread. Honestly, please don't do that. If you don't like the tone of this thread I totally understand - had i been relatively new reading this, i would have scurried back into my corner too. :A:o

    Pleeeeease don't let this put you off! That's awful. smiley-hug002.gif

    CHEATER ! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    None of that really appeals to me (not stuff i was fed as a kid), but would still be interested to see and learn. Is Veal cheap then? Im quite scared and uneducated in red meat. Scared of fishy fish too. Lamb is ok ..... but i thought it was dear, so i wonder what else they do with that?
