Porks good (although don't really eat the stuff myself) as most like it and you can fancy it up with crackling and the like, its pretty wintery and as you say British.

But would you want Pork for the main if you had Bacon in the starter?

If you went for Wild Boar instead of pork then it would keep the theme running through the menu, think it would work aspecially as the bacon in the starter is only a minor ingredient not the main event.

Suppose Wild Boar would work on 2 counts if Mrs B started on about finances again (sorry i know were supposed to be a team for this.. )

Langoustine instead of scallops? www.thewhitbycatch.co.uk/cgi-bin ... d.cgi?id=6 Not sure if they'll carry the chorizo though, further research needed.

Hey, Roopy I know your lurking!

I like 'em. But yeah, let's stick with the scallops. Quite liking the venison, needs to be a saddle joint. We'll get it off this bloke. www.roundgreenfarm.co.uk/index.html Good bloke is Richard, wife's a bit gormless. I'm not catching it though, the rut's in full swing and I don't want an antler up my Iestyn. Hi roopy.

It seems a bit unfair this...we discuss openly and the Aussie steal our ideas (which is normal I know)...yet they have their own secret little forum.
This is not so much a problem on this task as it will be independently judged, however it may well affect tasks in the future!

Hi Roopy

Subs absolutely - if someone gets bored and drops out. And they can be consultants (water carriers ). We'll do a team tally of challenges won as well as having a individual winner, so they can contribute to the Newcastle cause.

Hi all.
Been busy talking about food for the last few hours.
This is a good task.

Joining in, Hi roopy!

So what are you going for?
Something like this would go down a treat. I distictly remember Mild Rover saying how much he enjoyed Witchetty Grubs when he lived in Austrailia, those & Dingo's danglies.

I note with interest that you scaredy cat's have gone all secret.
