The Polar Bear Inn, a virtual pub

in my mums eyes i can do no wrong, never could, my wife on the other hand needs my mums guidance, wisdom and advice at every possible opportunity, boy oh boy have we rowed over the years lol
 
I have just had to explain to my mum why we are crying with laughter. She is now trying to pu things right. This is not going well:
Well you've had a double whammy.
In what respect?
Well not only on my side of the family - my granny was big. About the same size as your aunt. Then there's your dad's side. Your granny was big and so were all her sisters. One of them was enormous, bless her! So it's in the genes.
Think I bet have another one landlord!
 
Slow roasted belly pork with loads of crushed caraway and fennel seed rubbed into the crackling on the menu today, its been in the oven for 5 hours and its wonderfully crisped on top while the meat is so tender theres no need for a knife. Served with wild mushrooms, steamed cabbage and celeriac mashed with loads of butter and cream. I love Sundays!

Not that virtual for me, by 4pm I'll be in my real local having a few pints of Brighton Bier's Underdog while discussing the menu for my next visit as guest chef ,and probably simultaneously chatting with you lot as I can be here and there at the same time.

Sadly my local does not accept virtual currency, but I do get beer in exchange for my cooking skills.

Dear thomothebear,
I am afraid I am going to have to complain. There is a lack of fish and veggie dishes on your menu. I feel discriminated against and if it doesn't change soon I am going to report you to the powers that be!

How about a nice Thai curry with monkfish, aubergines, green beans and asparagus served with pad thai?

Me to mother -in law- 'I like that dress you are wearing,it looks really nice'
Mother-in-law ' You can have it when you can fit into it'


I want some Marmite flavoured cashew nuts, an icy cold diet coke and the Stereophonics on the jukebox please.
 
lol really? when she offers it to, you must tell her youve decided not to go to the fancy dress party after all
 
It's been a very long time, going to have to remind me of the rules.
Just to warn this is my first pint in 3 years not sure how much use I will be by the end of the glass.
