Cooking - the Archers way!!

Well, Cooked my first community meal yesterday. Strange having to go round the garden looking for ingredience rather than popping down to Tescos. Spend a while feeling stupid trying to figure out what the plants were!!

Finally managed to tell my parsley from my carrots and made enough food to feed us all for three days instead of one!!

And as for cooking on a Raeburn – its like stoking up the blood Titanic trying to get it up to temperature to cook on. I had heard Star trek’s “Scotty” in my head saying “She canna take it Capt’n – she’s gonna blow”!!!!

Anyway another task completed and another tick on my list of skills to learn.

Bye for now – the kettles whistling…

Hi Steve & Dave,
only just caught up with your blog. Am traumatised by Daves finger story but I bet not as traumatised as him. OUCH! Hope you had loads of rescue remedy to hand( or a morphine derivative - which is a better bet in my opinion):)
Sounds as though you are settling well in despite the injury. The pics are great - keep them comign helps us miss you less!
love

Hello Boys

Just looked at your blog for the first time - all very eventful. I hope the finger is healing OK and not too painful.

Clyde and I have both had horrible colds and Jess is having a little bladder trouble.

Who did you go dancing with in carlisle and how was it?

Lots of Love

Mike
