I don't know why either. Is this a Fife-Edinburgh thing? I know it's pretty standard in Fife, but unsure how far beyond the limits of kingdom it reaches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larkhall folk speak this way too, and I suspect the rest of semi-rural Lanarkshire would follow suit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the exact fucking opposite of a bunker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 This bit of path beside me is somewhat irritating. Was there not enough wood in the woods or something? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is Jessica Lange on a fucking bunker in The Postman Always Rings Twice.

Prefer shortcrust pastry myself but that's another story. For me main problem is cooking instructions being on the bottom of packages. If you have already ripped free the contents and then turnover : crumbs go everywhere If the contents are still inside : the topping etc gets stuck to the top as you invert. Even worse are the peel back label for instructions. The label that has just disintegrated in my hands aye. 45 minutes @ 180 degrees covers most scenarios. Chicken 1 - 2 hours, obviously. Anything not quite right, stick it back in again. Obviously that plays havoc with the spuds and veg... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
