I am into making my own now. Building up a right little collection of cookbooks. I read a Jamie Oliver one today, but won't pay £25 for it. Library here I come.

Save yourself the hassle CP. T'interweb is a fantastic source of recipes....all for free.

The recipe 10/10

My bad preparation and lack of skill made it 5/10 on the day/table

But I am at least trying. Saw a Jamie Oliver book (something like - anyone can learn to cook in 24 hours) and it looked good, just too pricey at 25 nicker.

Have you been to the Rose and Crown lately? I ducked in out of a rain storm, and had to spend more than a tenner cos I had no cash. So I decided to eat. The landlady is Polish, lovely lady. So I felt compelled to have a Polish dish - I think it was the Periogi. Yes. Served with lettuce. It looked good and I poured on the onion gravy. I think it was the saltiest dish I have ever tasted, and I really had to knock the Guinness back with it. Served to the ambient backdrop of a completely empty pub, driving rain, and obscure, yet cheesy, 70's pop. And I was coming down with a cold. Authentic. Must go again.

I am acquainted with the guy who runs the Westwood with his partner. A decent fella , and I hear the food is and setting is nice - but the place is not really my cup of tea.

Its my local, I'm always in there when I'm out, nice and quiet, very peace full and nobody to bother me.
