Yikes - it's a good thing I won't be able to taste it. I'll have to wash it down with your Brandy toddy.<BR/><BR/>Gobs - I think Gordon has gone from swearing like a fish wife on TV to swearing like a trooper because it's now expected of him. It's unnecessarily torrential now and I would put it down to the direction of the show. I too am in the 'seen it one too many times' camp on those shows.<BR/><BR/>Pat - I love the story of your dad, and also like the sound of Feck! When I was a kid I never heard the f word. I embraced it whole heartedly as a young adult, but now I rarely use it. I have been known though to yell out "See you next tuesday!!". Am I becoming too gentile?<BR/><BR/>Jon - I have to bow out of BB#2 we have family commitments which will have to come first this time.

His aggressive attitude, and particularly the body language he used when speaking to the Chef... looming over him.. using his bulk to intimidate.. just really pissed me off.<BR/><BR/>Formulaic indeed. Bah. <BR/><BR/>In other news, Get some hot lemon juice and brandy into you, Stiki... It'll do the trick. <BR/><BR/>All this wind and dust in the air is not good for anyone.

For some long time I have been doing them in the microwave oven. I like a soft creamy mass with a good scoop of spring onions to lift the flavour. However, lately I have been making them in a slow frying pan using wide wooden spatula for the crinkling and turning. <BR/><BR/>I think Gordon overdoes the Fs on TV. I've heard him speak publicly for a considerable time without using it. I just wonder if his kids are developing potty mouths. Only ever heard my father say the word once, very energetically - when I was about six - as he hit his foot with an ax. Because it was delivered with such conviction, it was a word I remembered for a long time before I ever knew what it meant. It struck me then as a good word to use in times of great stress though I was a late adopter. Being partly of good Irish stock, I generally use "feck". I offend myself less when I swap the vowels ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700505313257578551.post-75874932815263508952008-04-03T21:54:00.000+11:002008-04-03T21:54:00.000+11:00Chin up sticky!Your food looked delish by the way....Chin up sticky!<BR/>Your food looked delish by the way. On a common theme & in relation to your Gordon photo, I watched his show tonight.<BR/>It was truly the first time I thought he annoyed me with the agressiveness of his comments. Whilst I agreeed with his sentiments perhaps he could go about themn in anothet way/<BR/>Whether this will make as engaging tv is questionable.<BR/>having said this I see a pattern emerging of confrontation, fallout, relationship building & finally reconciliation. Its starting to seem overtly formulaec of late.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700505313257578551.post-79529182159058003982008-04-03T17:27:00.000+11:002008-04-03T17:27:00.000+11:00I hope you're feeling better soon - in time for th...I hope you're feeling better soon - in time for the bloggers banquet.
