Re: Seen on Youtube

The Talbot Matra Rancho is a pile of cr@p too, they go rusty if you just look at them funny. This one is interesting as they're transplanting it onto a Subaru Impreza WRX floorpan.

Re: Boiled Fruit Cake

It tastes very nice and it's a reduced sugar recipe :good:
As well as replacing a third of the brown sugar with Stevia I didn't sprinkle sugar on top either.

Re: Boiled Fruit Cake

It's in the oven, I used 100g of soft brown sugar and 6 drops of liquid stevia (2 teaspoon equivalent).

Re: Seen on Youtube

Been watching Yorkshire Car Restorations' Talbot Matra Rancho restoration. It's one of the last right hand drive models left. It's full of rust but, fortunately, a lot of the body is fibreglass. I'm finding it very interesting. Here's the link to part 1 https://youtu.be/ANfiRANItHc?feature=shared an...

Re: WHAT ATTRACTED YOUR ATTENTION TODAY?

A man's bedside drawer is a sanctuary :-)

What caught my attention this evening was the opening number of the BBC Proms Finale, a rendition of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody. Sir Brian May and Roger Taylor made an appearance too. I can't believe the song is 50 year's old.

It's available on the iPlayer.

You can also now get a "card guard" which is fashioned the same as a credit card and fits in your wallet or purse. It disrupts attempts to clandestinely scan cards. Another approach is an RFID wallet or purse which is constructed from materials that will not pass RF fields so again imperv...

Same as losing a wallet full of cash, there is the option to set a limit on contactless payments.

Granulated Stevia doesn't but I am looking to get some in liquid form, I may have to use a 50/50 mix with some soft brown sugar.

Never heard it in Norfolk either, nor did I get the message. Is that because of the American Airforce Bases we have locally, will there be no need for an alarm as we will all be dead? I do hope not!

I didn't really take a lot of notice of the accent, I was under the impression it was the 'text-to-speech' app on my phone that read the message out loud. I could be wrong but, if that's the case, mine should have been a Chinese accent :biggrin2: https://www.oneguyfrombarlick.co.uk/app.php/gallery/i...
