Evening folks
So took mum & dad for lunch at the pub. Lovely it was too so they spent the afternoon snoozing it off
I had to have half strength beer being the driver, back now for some full strength antifreeze it’s really quiet obviously Sunday curfew for the workers has kicked in
hope you all had a nice Sunday

While me winda was open eye set me room temp low un closed me door. That gottid me finkin. Eye has sensors int me livin room, dining wud wurk room un kitchen. So eye is going ter close all 3 doors ter nite to measure which room gets the coldest. Living room hassa bay winda. Dining wud wurk room hassa frog door wil all glass innit. Kitchen hassa door un winda un stick oot bit so int theory it should be colder. This will test if me livin room is drafty un gerrin colder or nottid.

Ooooh no!Looks nice did you flatten it wiv yer landy doon the back road & chuck it under the grill.
It was far more forensic than that!!!
And I think any poussin that you drove over in a Landy would be about as flat as a bony sheet of A4 paper!!!

I have no idea what you are talking about!
CSI?
Crime Scene Investigation? Aha! "Forensic" I get it!
Waitrose brought it round for us. Don't know the driver's name. and how to Spatchcock it was on BBC cooking online thing.
Thought spatchcocking was a Scottish thing anyway.
https://www.foodrepublic.com/2011/10/24/word-of-the-day-spatchcock/#:~:text=This wacky term comes from,quick and simple chicken dinner.
nope, twas the Oirish!
Well a lot more Celtic than us Brits!
OK, now I'll google Grissom
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gus_Grissom
As I thort, Merkin astronaut.
Now you reely have got me wonderin!
Dig deeper time!
Aha! Merkin chef who killed himself on a motorbike.
https://www.bravotv.com/the-daily-dish/top-chef-aaron-grissom-dies-34
So tenuous connection.
Maybe HE did spatchcocking
dig deeper.
Aha! alex Grissom has spatchcocked and written about it.
Not Aaron Grissom, Alex.
Feck me you are making me work hard tonight!
Anyway, next time you get a small chicken in, have a go, it really makes it taste extra nice, just a bit of salt, ground black pepper and a lump of butter in the middle on both sides.
You can also do it on the Barbie apparently.
I await your review!!!
