    Same idea with sprouts. I also add in 150gm of grated mature cheese. Herbs - Basil chives thyme and parsley. Onion and bacon are optional extras.

    So, as suggested...sprouts are okay...when disguised by mature cheese, Basil, chives, thyme, parsley, onion and/or bacon.

    My food ‘hell’....Tripe and sprouts!

    Anyway, Andy and Adi...it was ‘Swans’ by Prefab Sprout.

    Prior to lockdown the Dutch were on a 15 to 20 year roll of an ever growing number of Michelin Star restaurants. I know of 2, both run by 20 somethings, who had been visited by the Michelin gurus. Both fell a smidgin short but got recommendations from Michelin on how to make the step up to getting a star. When Covid hit, the young lady running one of them got a tremendous offer for the business and.... it's now a pretty basic Italian restaurant that Michelin won't even visit. Having seen the simplistic menu, I won't be visiting either. The other restaurant has simplified its menu for the duration of Covid and will go back to the quality stuff once this 'demic is over and will be implementing the Michelin recommendations.

    We do, however, still have the banal restaurants of old too

    And, in fairness, it was tripe too

    That or chocolate strands or Nutella are still popular toppings across the country.

    For me it's either a currant bun or melted cheese on toast.

    Me, I love sprouts(even raw).
    Get some down the Swansea players and we might nick a draw, otherwise a 0-1 defeat!

    We've been on an unbeaten run where with a bit of luck we could have won all (and lost all!) and AT LAST looked like a) as individuals we weren't all out of our depth and b) we were at least briefed to play against a proper opposition rather than some training ground team.
    But Swansea are third.
    Will we at last be found out as just clinging on by our fingertips, or will we demonstrate how 'close' and 'lacking in quality' the Championship is this season?
    Your thoughts would be welcomed
    We might have improved a little Since Rooney has took charge but I tend to look at the facts, No home wins and we can't score goals. The strikers we have at the moment couldn't hit a cows arse with a banjo so to me I can't see a win. We've kept clean sheets but I think Swansea will get at least one goal tonight so we'll need at least 2 to win. I hope I'm wrong but it just doesn't look possible with our players who are so low on confidence! If we get a quick goal who knows?

    That’s just weird.

    Did you see Jack Grealish parking, mac? It made me think you must have been nearby.

    I can do raw sprouts too, in fact most brassica I will eat raw - turnips and rape in particular
