    On the subject of food - a Cake Recipe

    Probably because it is very sticky and compliments the flavour of the cake where inferior jams like strawberry and raspberry wouldn't. I make a French apple tart from time to time, that uses apricot jam as a glaze, which really enhances the appearance and flavour of the dish.

    Wasn't there a suggestion last year that Giggs winning was part of some sort of far east betting scam?

    On the subject of food - a Cake Recipe

    I had a go at cooking mince pies today, for the first time, using a recipe from the Beeb website. Anyway, the pastry has ground almonds in it, which gives a really nice flavour and makes a change from the usual somewhat bland pastry flavour...I also mixed some brandy in with the mincemeat just...

    Ridiculous statements you have read about the Albion on NSC

    I'm sure that I saw him play for a team, that wasn't the Albion, in a game at Worthing. I think it might have been Bognor, but it is a few years ago so the memory is a bit vague, anyway it was a pretty entertaining game with loads of goals and incidents. The highlight was when Will either...

    nsc lowest point ever?

    Naah, there are enough "look at me" postings on offer at the moment to turn the festive season into a bit of a turkey shoot...if you will pardon the obvious pun...not much different to normal business! The football will return eventually, to distract us once more.

    (Common) foods you hate

    Roast pork, the smell of it cooking makes me retch, it reminds me of burning flesh. Other than that I am not at all a fussy eater and ame prepared to eat just about anything.

    People who actually like Brussels sprouts

    I love them too, but they must be steamed or lightly boiled...as long as they still have plenty of bite and flavour they are wonderful!

    ...not so sure, following our dreadful showing at the last World Cup he might be better waiting to see what happens if we make it into the Championship...if he gets noticed by a Premier League club anything is possible!

    Police Community Support Officers.

    This is no surprise at all to me. Before retiring and moving away from the county my parents lived in rural West Sussex, in a village that lost its Police Station during previous cuts, I understand that the officers were moved to larger stations elsewhere in the division. My advice to them was...

    My Sons Birthday......

    This, we have talked on NSC about the lost generation from the time when things weren't too good at the Goldstone, we were playing in exile or the early days at Withdean. It sounds like the club are making grand efforts to ensure that this isn't repeated, that local kids think first of the...

    Don't know if you have found this out!

    I drive an 8-year old Golf, which doesn't have any of the new-fangled features mentioned above. Fortunately I have more sense than money, when the weather is this crap and the advice is not to travel unless the journey is vital I do exactly that, my car is sat in the road outside my house and...

    You might have a point there BG, especially as Specials have a uniform the same as regular cops...you can only tell who they are when you see the badge on their epaulettes.

    How many inches have you got?

    It has started snowing again in the last half hour and a quick look at the radar suggests that the band of snow across the southern part of the UK is looping round and heading straight for us!
