Well did I ever drop a bollock. No pics cause no evidence. In my last post, in the background was venison ready for the next batch of pasties. Nicely diced and ready. Now the lovely one says do not put the slow cooker on in the kitchen cause she don’t like stinking the place out. So, out to the garage I go and get the thing going. Return to kitchen and lo and behold a spaniel licking his lips. Little git had upwards of 1 kilo in a matter of seconds. Ah well. My loss. Jok.

Heard you were in The States. Whatever nice to see you back on here. Might you still be moderating? Jok.
-
Eh up Socks. Nice to hear from you again. Nice trip away?. Jok.

They took my car. My jewellery. All contents of the car. They even confiscated some of the fish the barstewards. Luckily for me, in a jocular way, they missed a few which I’d hidden up which I managed to sell. Like I say. Brutal. Jok.

What an immotive subject. If someone rears and farms a bird/ animal then anyone who harms should be punished. If a bird/ animal is deemed wild then no one owns it/them unless trespass is the main issue. Whilst goose shooting on the Solway, as long as you gained access to the foreshore without trespass, ie, down a brook, then you can do no harm. Also, it is, I believe, illegal to repatronise wild rabbit to areas on which they have become scarce. Going back to the mixi days you were asked to take care of making sure that not one was spared. So now it is a criminal offence punishable by high fine

I was caught bang to rights poaching salmon near Lauder. Scottish Law took everything I had except the clothes I was wearing. Question. How did he get on with his dog/s ferrets, nets etc. Quite apart from the fine it can be quite brutal. Jok.

We have had 1/2 of one each. Maybe I should have cooked for another 10 mins but my pastry was perfect so didn’t want to take the risk. The meat was tender and moist but all in all I have given myself a 7/10. Possibly more pepper. Not a bad first try I reckon. Jok.

Well Arry there are 6 pasties in the oven as I speak. The only thing I changed was not using cubed potatoes. I opted for the ‘chip’ route. The meat I’ve used is beef skirt. The lovely one and I are going to have an early meal and to fair I can’t wait. Photos to follow.
-
I’m on it. Told the lads what I was doing and following , yet again, my pie success, all hands went up for the pasties. Thank you. Jok.
-
FAO Arry. Good morning mate. Just had a shuftie at your pasties and am wondering, do you parboil the veg before hand? Jok.

What have you put on your Christmas wish list? That’s about as close as you’ll get. It takes years to gain perms and as has been said, a hunting shooting forum might not be a great place to start asking. Jok.

Galactic Olives. What ever next? Jok.

Well something you guys don’t seem to bother with. Good old fashioned faggots. It must be one of our oldest dishes. I do my own herb mix which goes down well with the locals. Not only that but apple pies with my own pastry. Very nice guys.jok.

You daft boogers. I was thinking flour but couldn’t understand why. Jok
-
Out of curiosity what is the dusting on the sprouts? Jok.
-
I’d really like to tell you all about my ancestral great great grandmother who served with the Ghurkas, but, I shall refrain. Jok.
-
Far more interesting imo. Jok
-
Give us your rundown on wales vs Fiji and we might be interested. Jok.

Now then bangers. Following your topic regarding birds of prey. Driving from Ashby de la Zouch to Tamworth was looking out for the peregrine which has been seen regularly in this area. Imagine my surprise to see a a red tailed kite. Not once but a few times now. It coincides, I guess, with the release of both partridge and pheasant from the pens. It is however quite away up from the M4. Lovely to watch. Jok.

Know what guys. I’m sick as a pig. My mates brother took over. 7 shotguns . He took £140.00. Christ was I gutted. Hindsight is always good but why on earth wasn’t I asked? What’s done is done. Jok.

Someone has to say it. 14 roe catching the train to work ? Very intelligent animals. Jok.

I genuinely got the wrong end of that one. I took the wording literally as ,when we were on the farm in the Boders we had, each year a burn off. This meant clearing gorse and bracken which had become a bit unruly. There was, also, an annual burn off on each of the 3 Eildon Hills, monitored by the fire services. Sorry Bull if I got the wrong end of it. Jok.
-
Eh up Bull. You’d better explain to the unwary what a ground burn is. We had them on the hills in Scotland. Jok.
