    That reminds me of this dessert, apparently the original and best is available off-menu at the Ivy (the proper one, not the spin off Ivy Brasseries which are spreading voraciously like some disease)

      Discovered that I bought my copy of "Space Cowboys (2000)" slightly later than "HPD" on 24/10/2008 for the stunningly outrageous price of £5 from HMV.

      Currently watching "The Good Nazi" on Yesterday since I was getting withdrawal symptoms.

      Was listening to an inneresting documentary on R4 at 13:45 re the price of houses vs income in the 1960s.

      Sounds like it wasn't as easy as all that at the time.

      Not that the Millennials will believe any of it of course.
      When the fun stops, STOP.

        I might try making something along those lines

        Probably brown chocolate for me though

          Not as pretty but likely to taste better. I think white chocolate is too sweet and sickly

            Ribs and chips for tea, and very nice too

              Yes, I’m not keen on the white stuff.

                Plenty of white stuff in this evening's 2nd feature which turned out to be "Pale Rider (1985)" with that Clinton Eastwood again.

                Pale Rider (1985) - IMDb

                Saw that in The Castle Cinema in Swansea.

                There was some sort of cinema appreciation thing after it, which I didn't stay for.

                Came out, got in the car, and got boxed in by the plod for no readily apparent reason.

                It all turned out ok & they wandered off, probably to get a cup of tea.

                And that's a mere 33 or 34 years ago.

                When the fun stops, STOP.
