Great setting, looks mighty fine. I really dig the cuttlery, I plan on buying a more classic looking set in the future as and addition to my moder one.

[Giles]

The cutlery is silver plated Mappin and Webb in "Rattail" pattern.  We bought it bit by bit in their Christmas sales years ago, now when we need to add replace, we bu on eBay - there is loads to be found on on UK eBay…..

Ottolenghi is amazing. Cake looks great and sounds divine.

[Giles]

Yep, I could eat that - possibly all of it…...

[Alex]

All looks great @jordanscollected

[neph93]

Looks fantastic. So many of my favourite things in there too…

[motojobobo]

All of it looks so good @jordanscollected .

For now I’ll just have to continue looking forward to trying your food at some future IH gathering.

[JDelage]

Super yum! Hmm…  My 50th's coming...

[Giles]

Not cooking, just cutting.

We are having a BBQ for the staff, family and friends, oh, and the people from the brewery (guess who's bringing the beer) tomorrow evening.

Totally legal gathering of <30 of us outside in the office garden.

I bought a sirloin and a shed-load of sausages from our friends who run the local hotel.  Their meat is very good, so I asked them to get me some from their supplier.

I piggy-backed some boneless fore ribs for the freezer…..

I'm hoping that the person who does the labels, just can't spell 

[Chap]

Hmmm… thought that I am a friend. Got no invitation
