Typical: CC goes quiet when I have a lunch break.

You know you shouldn't speak with your mouth full!

Mmpf?

Freeing the rear mech worked. I did another test ride and everything is now working fine.
I went over to Lacock to help my brother and whilst there we saw a huge, huge flock of Redwings or Fieldfares! The ones which chatter in flight. They were coming from the West and heading North East.

My coccyx still hurts after yesterday’s ride (only 22 miles). This is the third time it’s happened so I’ve ordered a Charge Spoon saddle from Tredz. Hopefully a new saddle should help. And this particular saddle has been recommended.

Lebbloodywhat? A thousand years of war for our freedoms, and millions of soldiers giving their lives so that we could make traditional British mince pies with traditional British pastry, and you willfully bin all that to make your pies with German........GERMAN..........muck. Honest to goodness. I've rung the Tower. They're clearing a room.

I have a German Grandmother and a Russian Grandfather. That's without the further complications of Turkish and Persian ancestors.

Which side am I supposed to be on?

Erm, I have German, Polish, Jewish and Belgian ancestry, but was born a Cockney and raised a Gooner.

I'm in the same boat as @Speicher

Seriously, these'll be the best lebkuchen you will have ever tasted. I also make lebkuchen filled with marzipan and filled with plum butter. And lebkuchen with candied ginger and raisins... Amongst others.

Oh, you can be assured that there's rum involved as well. Or brandy. Or whatever that's open that I've got to hand...

Forgiven.

Well, provided you send a kilo or two for sampling purposes, and you don't repeat the sacrilege of putting mince meat in anything but pastry then calling it a mince pie. I'm suddenly very hungry.

I never said they were mince pies in the first place.

Mincemeat is also rather good in apple crumble.
