15 Jun 24 - 05:46 AM (#4203933) Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Steve Shaw From: GUEST,Steve Shaw Why, that's very grapefruit of youse - cheers! It's me 73rd (Dave didn't like to tell you that bit!) and we'll be celebrating with fish, chips 'n' mushy peas from the chippy tonight, washed down with summat non-low alcohol, and I might knock out a few tunes on the ould gob-iron as well. I've already been told off this morning for doing a 150-decibel rendering of Danny Boy in the kitchen. Where's the fun! ;-) |

15 Jun 24 - 10:38 AM (#4203949) Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Steve Shaw From: GUEST,Steve Shaw I'm generally around at the top end quite a bit! Q. What's the difference between a harmonica player and a bodhran player? A. The harmonica player only sucks half the time... |

17 Jun 24 - 08:40 AM (#4204051) Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Steve Shaw From: Dave the Gnome My "You're Welcome" comment was in response to a post Steve made thanking us for our good wishes. The post seems to have been lost when the other comments were move below the line. By mistake I'm sure. |

25 Jun 24 - 04:14 AM (#4204420) Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Steve Shaw From: Dave the Gnome Just in from the man himself :-) The tartare sauce is so quick and simple. The quantities are not set in stone but here's what I do: You need a handful of little cornichons, maybe six or seven, a tablespoon and a half of nonpareil capers (the little ones), rinsed, a tablespoon or more of finely chopped fresh parsley, a tiny squeeze of lemon (needed but don't overdo it), five tablespoons of mayo (full-fat Hellmans for me!) and seasoning to taste. Chop the cornichons and capers very finely on a board then just mix everything together in a bowl. Chill, then voila! Too thick? Add more mayo. Enjoy :-) |

27 Jun 24 - 01:09 AM (#4204535) Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Steve Shaw From: Neil D Thanks Dave and Steve, I can't wait to try it. I can't remember seeing cornichons in my local grocery. I wonder if I could use sweet gherkins instead. |
