f**k Up Fortnight

[Jonp]

Get it fixed .. it’s still shite up here

Going to take what's left of the cab off and go open plan, but at the moment still need the windscreen to keep the exhaust fumes away from me as a branch snapped it off when I was topping round the headlands, only got a short stub now and no silencer. Gee don't I sound like a bum

Sounds like a real gem of a tractor.

I got one going to be for sale if you want a new one, won’t cost that many (crops of) lambs.

We bought an old case Maxxum, that’s got air con ( but it doesn’t work )

Beans on toast.

Need to up the game though, now I am thinking cheese on toast with beans on top and a fried egg to top it all off

During lambing my go to quick supper is cheese on toast but jazz it up a bit at times with chopped toms/few chilli flakes/Worcester sauce/ham/bacon/onions etc.

Add as many it as few of the above that you want.

And I like sourdough bread, toasted before I add the cheese and other bits so it’s lovely and crisp when you eat it.

Last count on pet lambs was 265, 100 are now weaned with another 50 to do on Wednesday. Hopefully just (just ) 200 bags of milk and 20t of creep to get them away. The 100 weaned are better than any outside, 100 are good, 50 are ok and 15 are dire. I enjoy doing them mind.

10k on milk powder

I suppose buying 200 bags you get a discount

I am a big enthusiast for a large omlette. Several eggs, depending on size, whisked with a drop of milk and seasoning. Melt a small dab of butter in a good pan. Pour egg mix in then sprinkle large amount of cheese, sweetcorn, cooked frozen peas, spam or cooked ham... Pretty well anything. Serve with B&B for carbs or as a treat some chips. I always freeze any uneaten chip shop chips, reheat them in a hot oven for 6-7 mins (even better in an air fryer!!)

I really love a Spanish omlette/tortilla, with chorizo, red peppers and cubed potato. Great hot or cold.

Crikey, all these culinary tips, it's getting like @Anymulewilldo 's thread in here - we'll be venturing into the realms of airfriers and Thatcher's Haze before you know it
