Grilled Fish Heads !

Fresh from the weekend mackerel fishing trip at Anglesey, we have some shots of Julian B grilling / hot smoking some mackerel. You can almost smell the fishy juices soaking into the chopping board. Yumm, tomorrow breakfast toast is gonna have an interesting flavour ;o)

I'm awaiting police reports and photographic evidenc from the Mackerel Trip, but rumour has it that many folks were kept awake on Saturday night due to severe wind problems.

I don't need to stick a punchline in here, do I?

Some Photos from Jules F

OK, this is actually Big-Iain posting, but the photos are from Jules F. (He's new to the Blogging world  ;o)   )

Looks like we might have some Aubergines this year. 

Fried Green Tomatoes at the Externals Cafe ?      Few weeks of sun, and he'll have a fine crop.

Hi-de-hi. Big Iain, broadcasting from Rhubarb Manor.

Rhubarb : recent rainstorms has seen a fresh burst of growth.

Loganberry : Not bad. Have cropped some, and they're quite tasty.

Chilli-Peppers : Looks like some flower buds are forming, so I'm hopeful for peppers this year.

Blackberry / brambles - fruiting, but nowhere near ready to eat.

Big-Iain - Status

Hi there. Big-Iain here, giving a quick update on my progress in the horticultural stakes. I wouldn't claim to to be particularly good gardener, but here goes

RHUBARB : Not been a great season, and it's almost over. But, as you can see, it still looks pretty good. The rhubarb will definitely be over by R-Day, so there's a couple of stalks in the freezer, ready for some sweets. LOGANBERRY : Promising. Only planted late last year, but looks like there will be a semi-decent crop.

CHILLI PEPPERS : Disappointing. Grown well, but no sign of flowers, so no sign of actual peppers yet. Fingers crossed.

TAYBERRY : Disappointing. This is it. Wow. Impressive huh ?

Welcome one and all.

I've just set up this blog for the members of the RR Development Ratatouille Club.

Why?

...ummm. Pass.
