A question for our Chef in Residence aka @Reynard. Do you have a recipe for Aloo Gobi Saag? Or can you suggest a good website to fine the recipe?

@rockyroller - How big is your new friend?

I accidentally put self raising flour in my crumble mix. I managed to get most of it out and replace it with Plain!

It's when you accidentally used icing sugar instead of flour when rolling your pastry for a savoury pie.

Cut the bramble growing up through the beech hedge & camellia off at ground level, then pulled it all out. The bits sticking out the top had been getting to me! Also picked blackberries.

Mine takes 45 seconds if I go down the stairs slowly but it can be done quicker but I can't be bothered. 😁

Try using a bike: that'd speed it up.

Saw this earlier @deptfordmarmoset and thought of you:

One of the things in London that are worth a visit. I used to enjoy Leather Lane & Bermondsey Market was a fascinating place for this pre-teen

I haven't had a twix in ages... Have just put them on the shopping list for next time.

Best stored in the fridge & a piece broken off & sucked.

Had two slices of wholemeal toast for luncheon, one with the last of the pate, the other with the last of the cream cheese, plus a portion of cherry tomatoes, a nectarine and two

Letter is in the post and the chutney is on the go.

Either BBC Good Food or the Sainsbury's website. It's a while since I made Saag Aloo, but one of those will be where I got the recipe from.

Ridley Road market for me, or Highbury Barn with all the Turkish restaurants and bakeries, where you see the ladies sitting in the window making the breads and pide... Walthamstow is fabby for the fabric shops.

I'm pleased for you, even though I don't understand a word

Ah. I maintain an archive on a particular racing driver. Been collecting stuff since '87-ish (I was 12, then), but even now, the more I manage to find out, the more I realise I still don't know. And that's even when I'm the acknowledged expert on the subject, and people come to *me* with questions...

The pork chop I've just put under the gorilla is the same shape as South America..

Are you sure that was a wise thing to do?

It's the same shape, not the same size, I hasten to add

I was thinking more about the gorilla...
