It’s a different experience, largely due to the climate imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am generally forced to eat early on, 4 ish usually as that's when the kids are hungry and it suits their bath and before time etc but will push them later as they get older. I live nothing more than waiting till like half seven eight o'clock and sitting down with some good scran and wine. Even better outside if possible as you say. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to eat about 6.30 now cause of the kids and I thought that was early! 4 o’clock would do me in. 8pm my ideal too. I feel for you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe going off topic, but as much as Scotland is beautiful I find the weather off putting, both the general climate and the uncertainty of what you’re going to get. I’ll take a long, drawn-out meal on a balmy evening ahead of many of lives simple pleasures. Sadly too few are available in our home land. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Interesting, I will try that next time. Thank you.Yes, apologies, should have mentioned this to you when you asked for the recipe.FWIW I cheated with this one, it was shop bought from Aldi. I was painting the outdoor stairs yesterday so I didn’t want to have to make one from scratch. Initially went to get a beef rib joint my girlfriend had saw a couple of days previously, but at £28, I couldn’t justify spending that for dinner for just the two of us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's my second sourdough starter, Maria lived for about 3 years before that but succumbed to an unrecoverable fungal infection. RIP. I don't know why people say sourdough bakers are weirdos. You are a weird for supporting Hibs. But you're a cracking baker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
