Latest Acquisitions

Love corned beef hash have had it this week, shame is noone else but me eats it, so I get extra helpings mmmmmmmmmmm think I taking me a slop of that to F&O good battle stodge

Wooton pie mmmmmm, I love all the veggie recipes from the days back when, so much better than todays fat/sugar/monosodium glutomate/startch/water/whatever artificially flavoured nonsense.

Mock goose sounds intriguing Guy, I've seen mock chicken, rabbit and fish recipes but not a goose one.

And I haven't made bubble and squeak for yonks, time for some choice veg buying for next sunday dinner, so I can have b & s with the left overs mmmmmmmm

Andy has been a VERY naughty boy and has ahem been acquiring more mortar bits to wit carrying strap and support kit from Sent Jouney plus Bren bits n pieces from same source...also some sten bits from WorldWide arms...

Santa will have nothing left to bring you

well Christmas has come early......thats my excuse.....

Holy shit! I haven't bought anything for a week. Oh wait a sec, I tell a lie. I spent 300 quid on an indexed dividing head for the Mill. Not exactly WW2, but I need it for a very specific WW2 project

I've bought way too much these past two weeks. I'm supposed to be saving cash to buy furniture

Another 6-8 weeks before my M1917 uniform arrives.
Books, Camera, Bogen tripod adapter so I can use my Speed Graphic cameras with my Russian camera tri-pod (until I can find a Folmer Graflex No.1b Tripod)

Ah who needs furniture when you can sit on a packing box and look at pretty things

Someone already suggested buying WW2 camp furniture, folding chairs and tables and the like...

ah you'll be stepping into the realms of Joeri with all your modern things tucked discretely away behind retro items, 1930s/40s house cool

I think a tent in your bedroom might be taking it a bit too far though

God forbid I ever turn into that woman!
And I don't mean physically.

Am sure there will be a few give away clues in your posting should that happen, in which case am I to request the presence of the men in white coats ?

I love corned beef hash - infact it was my dish of choice at Normandy!

Great isn't it can't wait til next week and I can have it again, don't want to overkill it, might have to do cowboy pie as a variant

Never tried it... but all this talk has meant I found some recipes on the net and just went and bought the ingredients... (Its one of my cooking nights... there aren't many of 'em)

We're having Corned Beef Hash for tea...

Don't think so. For a start Mr Flibble isn't two-faced...
