And so the baton has been handed over to me. Yes, it’s Moose here. I’ve been lurking in the background for the past few days, making sure no-one has been caught in moderation, deleting spam etc. But it’s Sunday, so time for a roast.
I’m a big film fan and something that has [...]

A Tagine is a rich meaty stew from North Africa, made with marinated meats and fruits… I’m hoping you get the analogy- this ‘Roast’ is somewhat late, but I hope better for the slow cooking and marinating process, filled with tasty fruit and nourishing meat.

OK, so it’s just me going on a summer holiday, but I got to sing the song in my head and that’s all that matters
Once again it’s time for me to bid you all adieu for a little while. At least this time it’s not because I dying of some mysterious mojo-sapping lurgy

I’ve said before that I don’t care about my audience, that I write for me [...]

This week what is there to tell you? Um. Not so much really. I’ve been laying low since last weekend’s fun and frolicks, trying to decide what to do on my holidays in a few weeks time. Yes, I have the last two weeks of August booked off and I still haven’t decided what I’m [...]
