It is freezing here (or very nearly) - 2°C today. It's supposed to be tropical. So dinner ain't tropical. Mince and Tatties. HP Sauce.

Much as I like finnan haddie, they are very different from Arbroath smokies. The are cold smoked and require cooking, unlike the smokies which you can eat straight from the smokehouse.

Well, I'm British and don't get it! That said the celebrity worshipping classes are unfathomable. Especially towards well-connected upper-class woman with large mammary glands! I'm not saying she is a bad cook. She isn't. But...
