Another “classic” english dish is a sweet version of a steamed suet pudding, with dried fruit (currants), called “Spotted Dick”

Fortunately for Giles’s arteries he didn’t eat this as well

If its got meat in it I'd probably like it. Not sure about kidneys though.

[Megatron1505]

Urb, they do a version that comes in a can, great as a snack. I'm going to throw a couple in the case for you check out in October

What's the name and location of this palatial hotel please? Looks like the site of a classic Brit crime movie, Agatha Christie meets P D James kind of stuff.  I'm in awe.

If I win the lottery, I want to stay there a night or two…..

Very close to our end of the Channel Tunnel - in fact due to some useless navigation assistance from my wife yesterday, we almost ended up in feckin France.  Cue, Giles on intercom at toll gate asking how  we **don'**t go to France with queue of cars getting irritated behind him….

If there were more women in space, I'm sure there would have been manned landings on both Jupiter and Mars already…

We do have a Land Rover….We also have a  Merc C class.  After my 1,000 miles in 3 days with Haraki in the Landy last year, I vowed never to do a long journey in it again....
