Sorry got distracted by Gok cooking and start of Secret Millionaire

We were travelling from the land of the Bard down to the New Forest and stopped off at Stonehenge. We were foolish but not quite bad enough to drive right past without noticing. I was driving and mum navigating. This turns out not to be one of her stronger points. It turned out that we has missed a crucial turn off (prob the one into the a303) as there was a sign at the exit off the roundabout but no warning as you approached it (if that makes any sense at all).

Oh donkeys doodahs, gok wan was doing dim sum, was he? I wanted to see that. I love dim sum so much.

Ha ha- I didn't even notice it. I have shared a number of beds with a number of men, but it was all platonic, honest guv.

Nothing to feel ashamed about chewy. Why is it men feel tittery about is where as like the idea of women sharing fun?

Cornwall was in April, we went to New Forest and Isle of Wight via Stonehenge towards end of May. Only for a few days on both occasions, but I'm finding there are distinct advantages to not having one of those job things

Blimey - away twice in the same year; apart from the fact my last holiday was in about 1993/4 ... I've never been away twice in a year. Actually I've only ever been away 3x in 30 years... 3x to Cornwall.

We think Gok's food looks yummy, and have really enjoyed it. A good numbers of mushrooms too :cool:

He just annoys me - and he's a ... well, I don't know what his job is actually ... but he's not a cook/chef so it seems annoying that he'd muscle in on food/cookery.

I did see a trailer of some sort - and he was saying how easy it all is ... yeah, once you have all the right equipment, access to the ingredients AND the ingredients. I saw him using a wok. Never used one, I doubt I would ever have one - a frying pan's good enough for me.

Never seen them, never had them.



I don't get out much do I.

One of the things about food is that you can't just have it - you have to have it, in the company of other people who can verify if the one you're having is a good/bad example, so you know when you've had a good one.

I've recently discovered (from something Jamie O said) that parmesan cheese is proper cheese - and isn't just the really nasty, nasty stuff that Pizza Hut put in shakers on their tables in the early 1980s. I really had NO idea and have avoided anything that says parmesan ever since that awful experience when I sprinkled some on something.

If you like or dislike it who cares what others think.

Dim sum is things, not a thing, we talked aout it in an old no thread and i suggested we took you for dimsum when you were going to be in london for some reason then you reveled you hate two main ingredients of most!

Will you get solar panels?

If you could see the London/Surrey borders weather this minute you wouldn't ask about solar panels!:rotfl:

Oh, I'm sorry. A documentary about an A road. I thought you were joking.

Mind you, there's a wikipedia entry about the A303.

Loads of roads have wikipedia articles. Makes you wonder what counts as non-notable!

In fact, there is a very simple proof that all whole numbers are interesting. Given that, it is surprising that Wikipedia has not found anything to say about nearly all of them.

I can provide the proof if you want, but it is quite well known.

Yep - with all that rain you wouldn't be making much electricity right now...that and the fact it is night
