The rest of the group, however...

No, I haven't, mate. The best 'Mexican' food I've had in a restaurant was in Greece, funnily enough (http://www.senor-zorba.gr/). I could murder a burrito like. Trivia tidbit: Burrito means little donkey in Spanish.

Aretha Franklin's version of The Fool on the Hill is shit hot btw.

Lee, if you're reading this (and I know you are), you're a talentless, hackneyed joke and you couldn't write a decent article to save your life. Which wouldn't be so bad if you had a scrap of integrity. And you've managed the improbable feat of, by comparison at least, making your predecessor look like a journalist. Edit: Fangyoovehmush

They're minging like but once you swallow them / keep them down they're a proper giggle.

From that answer, can I assume he's playing a fat weirdo in this? And Stevie, watch the original 13/Tzameti. It's fucking mint.

It like so totally tastes like Special Brew.

This was when their was that loophole in the law. Kard Bar and the like sold them for a while as they weren't considered 'prepared' if they were chilled rather than frozen. So they got them shipped over from the 'Dam. Summer '05 I think it was. The Hawaiian ones were the shiznit. Much nicer than trips as they only last about 4 hours. Me mate still goes up Rothbury way every autumn to get a batch and makes this brew so you get the maximum off them. Not really into that sort of thing any more but I would consider doing them out of all that type of thing because they're pretty user-friendly. Unless you do too many.

Sad as fuck like but I'm delighted for them and their lovable little leprechaun. Our recent form takes the edge off it like, as others have said.

Nice chocolate anarl.

Bit weird. I'm not convinced of the point of it. Like you say, steep for a novelty. And you could get a lot of bottles of Bailey's for £100.

It won't actually be the end of the world but the behaviour of some of the people in town that night will lead you believe otherwise.

Never even heard of them. What's that aal aboot? I've had a go on Gemmill's vapouriser like (not a euphemism)

Chez, ignore the cheese-tastic cover and the fact it's on React, you would absolutely love this: http://www.discogs.com/DJ-Sneak--Princess-Julia-Kinky-Tracks-Selected-By-DJ-Sneak-Princess-Julia/master/11543 The Princess Julia mix is even better than the Sneak one.

Anyone tried the Jamie Oliver recommended combo of cheddar drizzled with honey and sprinkled with crushed coffee beans? Sounds dodgy but it actually works very well.

Being a fan of Mexican food (or my rough approximation of it anyway), Tequila (proper Tequila) makes for a rather nice aperitif. Drank the proper way, i.e. lime wedge rubbed in the V of your finger and thumb, sprinkled with salt, then lick your hand and down the shot. Repeat as required.

I remember spending a Saturday afternoon on 'shrooms and when final score came on Ray Stubbs looked the fucking spit of a rhino. I just thought I'd mention that to piss off J69.

Think it's for a TV show and they suggested it was probably only going to be a one-off. Fair play to him though.

Well, I try to be anyway. You can sometime buy in places like Marksies muslin bags with spices in to infuse the wine but that's a nice simple recipe in any case.

Cheers Chezmus. Especially like the 2nd track. Re: Slam I think they're slightly boring / overrated as DJs but they're great producers. Particularly Eterna and Positive Education from back in the day. I think the former might have been the first ever single on the excellent Soma label, which is still going strong I think. Also, the Cut The Crap compilation from Back to Basics (Derrick Carter, tracky Chicago House mix / Ralph Lawson House/Deep House mix and an Electro / Downtempo mix from Sir Andrew of Weatherall) is fucking mint and would take a few of you back. http://www.discogs.com/Andrew-Weatherall-Derrick-Carter-Ralph-Lawson-Back-To-Basics-Cut-The-Crap/release/218477

1 bottle of red 75g soft light brown sugar 2 cinnamon sticks 1 lemon, sliced (go for an unwaxed one or give it a good scrub if you can't get one) 4 whole cloves 150mls brandy or port (the latter is obviously sweeter, the former makes for a stronger brew) Put all the ingredients (except the brandy/port) in a pan and bring to the boil to dissolve the sugar. Remove it from the heat straight away and cover the pan (you don't want the alcohol to evaporate) to allow the flavours to infuse. Let it stand for 5 mins. Strain to remove the spices and lemon slices. Add the brandy / port and serve it warm. You can garnish each glass with a slice of fresh lemon.

I look on discogs all the time (that's emit backwards btw ) as it happens. Incidentally, Woob aka Paul Franklin also did some mint stuff under his Journeyman moniker.

Btw, if you see any of the Em:t stuff cheap online give the 'Lucid Dream' album a miss as it's canny shite. If you see any of the other ones text me ASAP
