Today’s effort was a monkfish madras and a dal.

I just accidentally gave one of my residents my bamboo wand. Ungrateful sod gave me some tights in return. Salt in the wound time.

Half term meant I could make a load of base sauce and tonight we had a chicken korahi with onion bhajis (which I have never made before) I loved it.

Not seen it either, never appealed to me. I also haven’t seen Avatar. They seemed so earnest and po faced.

My smoked haddock and crayfish pancakes were a triumph. I finished them off in the over with a parsley and comte breadcrumb topping. My boy loved his first pancakes as well.

I went and got some smoked haddock and some crayfish to make a savoury pancake for our tea. It will be the boys first pancake day, so he can try a banana and ice cream pancake.

Got an incredible line caught whole sea bass from the fish man yesterday. Think I will roast it whole, just wondered if anyone had any recipes ideas. Want to keep it relatively simple.

They stuck this up on Twitter today.

Wilco?

Have seen a post on here saying don't listen to publications like What Hifi as they just mention and recommend super expensive equipment. Just wondered what makes I should be looking at for an entry level machine. Ideally it will be blue tooth enabled as I don't want to buy new speakers just yet. Would £200 get me a decent machine? I am in no way a music sound snob - I just want to restart my 1970's rock vinyl collection!

It would appear your house is haunted by the ghost of Bill Bailey.

For me the most difficult thing in regard to this is having recently moved to a new area and not been able to try the new places.Now that I only live couple of miles from the sea I expected to be eating a huge amount of freshly caught fish, but it hasn't happened. I have had some takeout pop up restaurant stuff to help support some of the small places, but it isn't the same.

How healthy are all these processed vegan/veggie foods? As I have never eaten thigs like supermarket chicken nuggets or sliced ham I have never seen the appeal.

Got to love those anchovies.
