    Sunday roasts ranked.

    Love cauli cheese, but goes best of all with a grilled gammon steak and buttery jacket spud. A bit of naked cauliflower with a roast is a thing of beauty - and a leek gratin? We've recently discovered braised or roast fennel, which goes REALLY well with pork. It comes in our weekly variety box...

    Me and the missus agree that our favourite changes to pretty much whatever we've had that week! But she really is the queen of roasts - used to run and chef in pubs, and her's was the best pub roast i've ever had. She normally does about 7 veg at home, and her gravy is the talk of our friends...

    Not sure what their delivery area is, but this is in the next village to me, near Evesham! Incidentally, reputed to be the only pub in the world to be named after asparagus (Gras in the local dialect) - they even have a separate asparagus menu at this time of year...

    Frankly the Mail in Sunday know about as much as the “I’ve heard from a reliable source...” brigade on here!

    I never knew it was a "thing" until your post, so thanks! Didn't realise you could hit pause, so i went for my tea and took over an hour to do Houch's Header! Strangely i wasn't too bothered about taking my time over the one with the girls in bikinis it suggested i complete next! Will go back...

    Greatest Escape

    I see the BBC have seen fit not to include us (as probably the most famous of all Houdini clubs) in their list of greatest PL escapes. So what do YOU rate as our most spectacular ever (don't necessarily limit it to the PL years)? Premier League: Who produced the greatest relegation escape?

    Is it Unthinkable

    If we don't get promoted, by whatever means the EFL conjure up, any bets that SISU are the first to launch legal action???

    Most irritating things during the pandemic

    "In line with the scheme rules, a member of staff on furlough leave is not permitted to undertake any work for [employer redacted] during the period of leave. However, it is possible for training to be undertaken and may be a good opportunity for on-going personal development. Please discuss...

    Most irritating things during the pandemic

    How do you mean "supposed to be furloughed", Chief? If you are furloughed, your employer is not entitled to ask you to do any work. At all. Sounds like they're trying to claim the government furlough money while still getting you to work for them. Tell them to stick it, or employ you!

    I was going to add that caveat, but i thought i'd get accused of posting "too much information"! How many likes did i miss out on, i wonder?!

    Nice posing pouch, dude!! Nothing's going on my face if it ain't certified to the right British Standard (FWIW it's BS EN 14683:2019)

    Most irritating things during the pandemic

    The media, asking incessant questions at government briefings and in the press about why they won't tell us when lockdown will be over. Yes, i know it's a pain for many (though i prefer working at home to going to the office), but if the herd immunity thing isn't going to work, this is what it...

    What's everyone watching while on 'lockdown'?

    We started watching "Normal People" last night on iPlayer. It's like an Irish "Gregory's Girl" in some ways, but alright so far. Anyone seen it? The lead female is attractive in an unusual way (not harmed by her predilection for taking her clothes off) but the lad's mum, who only has a fleeting...
