"Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife. -
Originally posted by zeitghost View PostI rather miss Robert The Books in Swansea.
Used to go there for years, er, decades.
Now all we have left is charity shoppes, of which only the Oxfam shoppe in Castle Street is much cop & expensive with it.
Although one of the ones in Oakham was transplanted there from here, so at least it still exists. A couple of others still exist as online-only businesses, selling mainly through Abe Books.
And meanwhile their former shops stand empty, earning their usurious landlords no rent whatsoever, but presumably providing a nice tax break when written down as a lossComment

Serve in a crusty bread roll ( toasted sourdough is ideal if you can get it) topped with a mushroom duxelle, rocket and horse radish sauce.Last edited by DaveB; 22 April 2014, 10:48."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

The mixer blades tenderise the meat and spread the fat evenly through it which binds it so you don't need to add egg or bread crumbs to hold it together in burger form. Fry or griddle to taste.
