I’m a cheese & onion pie addict myself. It’s my usual choice over meat. Pretty sure the Pukka one would be horrid, their meat pies are.

It would be perfect in my bar ( The Blind Bus Driver ) but I can’t justify buying it in the current climate. It’s a wonderful thing all right.

I also like my DeWalt Combi. Had it for around 10 years & no issues at all when using quality drill bits & drivers. It wasn’t cheap initially but it’s earned it’s keep for sure.

I think Pukka ( the brand) need to take a look at the meaning of the word they chose to describe their business! Hilarious.

Not vegan, but traditional way to add bags of flavour to pizza is anchovies. Depends if you eat fish or no flesh at all I guess. One vegan flavour bomb is shiitake mushrooms poached in soy. They have a pretty meaty texture anyway & the soy adds umami.

Happy Birthday! 50, like all the others, is just a number and not a restriction on your life. A friend gave me a great T-shirt when I turned 40. It said “If you haven’t grown up by the age of 40 you don’t have to!” I’m now 58 & still refusing. S

You should be able to lay hands on some alder without too much effort. It grows like a weed and is nice & easy to carve. Try a post on your local sell and seek sites or ask a tree surgeon. Sharp knives are the key to not cutting yourself.
