I am so insanely jealous of you that I can't stand it. I'm trying to convince my husband that he, too, wants to move to Scotland (Skye) after the kids are grown. It's an uphill battle, but I'll win!

Tasmania looks beautiful from the travel programs I've seen.
Japan too...slang. The first phrase I learned in Japanese was "Papa wa dadi desu ka." (Who's your daddy)...I hung around too many firefighters.
If you don't know you needn't look :-)

I've done it several times in a Visions 5L pot. No problems.

So, no sense of humor, either. No understanding of word play. Great.
Peter, the differences between a baking powder bread and a yeast bread are large. That you seem to be unable to recognize them means you would do better to discuss Australian slang and the Southern Cross while the rest of us talk about food. Bran muffins are "no-knead bread" too. Exactly the same, right?
Pastorio
Thanks.
When you get a minute, explain that to PeterL...

WEll I will leave it to Bruce to tell you except to say they are the most mouth watering pastry filled with almonds and eggs and..................... Ohhhhh delicious things:))
That's not like you Mary
Oh dear:(
Bakewell in Derbyshire is home to the Bakewell Pudding. Allegedly first made by mistake in the mid 19th century when a cook in the Rutland Hotel got confused when making a jam tart by putting the fruit straight onto the pastry base of a tart, rather than on the top of the butter, egg and sugar 'filling'. Several shops in the village claim that they sell the "only original version" from a "secret recipe" handed down from generation to generation etc.
Ingredients
8oz butter 1 egg and 7 egg yolks 5oz castor sugar 1oz ground almonds Strawberry (or raspberry) jamMethod Line oval pie dish or plate at least one and a half inches deep with puff pastry and spread thickly with the jam. Melt the butter in a double saucepan or a basin over simmering water adding the eggs and sugar. Stir until a custard is formed, add the almonds and pour it into the pastry. Cook in an oven at 180ºC for 45 minutes turning the heat down after 20 minutes or so.
There are lots of other, very similar recipes, available on the internet. Bakewell, along with many other Derbyshire villages, also has a traditional annual "well dressing" or "well flowering" - see photograph at
Oh I loved to visit those:)) It is time I was going back to visit:))
That sounds GOOD.
Oh, an "incomer". ;)
Yorkshire?

Derbyshire - the gritty, Dark Peak bit, NOT the posh tourist-ridden White Peak area

If you've got it, flaunt it! ;-)
Woohooo boy:))) You GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now, about that Bakewell Pud stash........................
Mmm, Bakewell Pudding. And Derbyshire Oatcakes. Not to mention Scottish delicacies such as Cullen Skink, Clapshot, Cloutie Dumplings, Cranachan, Bridies, Arbroath Toasties, Bannocks, Partan Bree, Stovies and, of course, Haggis . Probably yet more reasons why, according to my weight, I should be at least a foot taller than my present 6' 3"
