How daft!
What next, a ban on runner beans because they've never been round a track?

What about Jacob's Cattle (a variety of bean)? Should we ban them too? Maybe ban the bureaucrats and semanticists first.

Unbelievable!! Though for the Thunderer to have descended to the depths of not knowing how to spell leek. Thanks Mr Murdoch.
And that suddenly makes me wake up. Typical of a Murdoch rag. Anything to make the Brits more anti-Europe.

I made one of those a few weeks back, or a variant of it called 'drowned baby'... Apparently so called because it was Admiral Nelson's favourite pudding, and was cooked the old fashioned way in a cloth bound each end, which looked not unlike a burial at sea... Whether this is true doesn't matter, cos the addition of rum and cinnamon really did make it rather nice.. I must however, own up to covering it with custard from a... carton :roll:

Paul, although I do make flash custard occasionally. I've got to admit I absolutely love custard made with the powder. especially on things like spotted dick and treacle pudding.

To be honest, when I asked the wife to bring back some custard I was unsure what she would buy. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the carton of pre-made.. I also like the one in the can. It's not very often I have custard so this was quite convenient.

I'm off down to the local coctail bar, ready with the European Legislation, when I order my "Long Slow Screw Againt the Wall" !

Heather,

That reminds me of a sunday lunch I had with my uncle years back as a kid. When the waitress came over and told him the deserts of which spotted dick and custard was one, he replied in a deeep greek accent, by asking her "how do you spot your dicks?" he meant raisins or sultanas of course!!!!
