It has a sweet taste. I usually use Frank's and it is much nicer.

Can't beat Franks, but the Encona extra hot chilli sauce is epic. The original is available, but I find it harder to get the extra hot version in store. Now that is a great cooking sauce and one powerful dip.:eek:

I will keep on eye out for it. I want to try the Rebel Chili sauce as well but forget to look for it in Supervalu.

Correction on my part the Encona is an extra hot pepper sauce, not chilli. But by Jaysus S it's hot. I haven't tried the Rebel chilli yet.

I'll be like a greyhound out of the traps heading for the shopping tomorrow, my big day (hour) out in the big smoke (small town).

Highlight of my social life besides Boards.ie for the last 11 months.

Fresh crusty loafs, coleslaw, fruit and veg, chelsea pastries, smoked cheese, Smirnoff, Merlot, Beer, Cider and most important of all Bovril. Had to pour the boiling water into the jar today to extract the last of it to help make the last mug. Tough times in the mountains of south Kerry lads, tough times.

Nothing in this world compares to a good mug of Bovril, I usually start by dipping a plain cheese sandwich into it.

That's only the foreplay, when I get the first sup of raw goodness into me it's like a drug, I keep taking small sips and deep breathes in rapid succession then until it's all gone. For obvious reasons I don't drink it while in company.

The odd time there's a Brucie Bonus of a piece of melted cheese in the last slug, you just know no matter what, it's going to be a great day when that happens.

I know that feeling RG. Did the shop today in a mid sized town. A Birthday here tomorrow. A 13th! Well stocked up, but a little sad that she can't have something she will really remember. I have all I want and need and completely understand where we are at right now, but she's still just a kid at heart and at that age memories are built. I'm really trying to go the extra mile for her tomorrow.

Teenager for the first time is a huge occasion. What can ya do man in these circumstances only give a hand written voucher for whatever it is she was looking forward to that can't be gotten now.

A carefully planned feast was organised for this evening but I'm ashamed to say I was defeated by half a Centra meat feast pizza.

Okay, there was a small bit of roast beef and red cheddar added and a few chicken nuggets on the side and a platter of chips between the three of us as well but there's still two out of my four slices of pizza left. It doesn't look that awesome but it was some value at 7.50.

I could hear me Mam's voice telling me "Your eyes are bigger than your belly" when I admitted defeat.

Lucky enough I managed to finish the Chelsea pastry for dessert and there's a taste of more off the Merlot so my reputation is not in complete tatters yet.

The Birthday girl is in bed. Mrs G is in bed. I'm polishing off my third beer and then a chicken curry fried rice and chips. May have the leftovers for breakfast/lunch tomorrow.:D

igCorcaigh

It's late. But fried smoked mackerel, with potato salad and rocket coming up.

There might be a flatbread and pickled cucumber too.

bassy

baby potatoes,chicken,loads of veg.

Grandeeod

Got up at around 11am this morning and starving. I held out until 12pm before grub. It was meant to be a sausie sandwich, but I had other ideas so me and Ms G settled on sausages beans, chips and toast for brunch. By 4pm I finished off last nights chicken curry and fried rice leftover takeaway. I'm worth it!:D

So dinner. Nothing posh. Mrs G had another WWs meal with curly fries. Ms G had a chicken fillet burger, a real deal chicken fillet done in the oven and sliced on a bun with ketchup. Curly fries on the side. I'm having a decent sup of beer now and then a striploin steak, mushy peas and chips. We use the Air fryer all the time here so the chips, like the curly fries earlier were done in that. My fries tonight are Green Isle rustic fries. Very tasty!

Forgot to say that Ms G did dessert tonight. Crushed Terrys chocolate orange with chocolate icecream. A treat for her birthday weekend. Loads of cakes left too. Roll on tomorrow!

I nearly got a take away but instead put a pie in the oven. Lockdown blues

Beef, stuffing, roasties, carrots, mushy peas and gravy. Followed that up with the last of the chocolate cake. After a long and cold walk we had savage appetites on us. The Dairymilk is for later.:D A bottle of Heineken.

Something very similar to Grandeeod's for us today, roast with the trimmings and homemade chocolate brownie with ice cream.

And of course wine.
