Middlewood - Spring 2008 Meet...

[firebreather]

Was it nice? Our time was up so we didn't get to sample it unfortunately. Depending on the size of your back yard, I would probably try snaring the squirrels. Less chance of alarming the neighbours!

It was very very nice we have not stopped talking about it since. Its great going into work and regailing them with tales of rabbit, squirrel and budgie stew.

Bring more bring more !!!!!!!!!!!

It was superb Spam. I had about four helpings

Remember that unfeasibly red rabbit leg? Well after 3 hours in the cauldron I picket it out and the meat was still red and bloody tasty

If you can make this meet and have any surplus of game then I'm sure it'd go down a treat.

Basic recipe is meat, carrot, swede, onion (if Wayland isn't partaking), stock, red wine (I brought a relatively good quality one as it's worth a couple of extra quid) and herbs.

I'm drooling again

I have been dealing with Tamarack Outdoors thro school and get a personal discount of 10% off all their stock lines. Mike (the owner) has said that he is willing to extend that to BcUK members, as a one off for now, if they place one large order thro me.

All items requested will be taken to Middlewood by me and handed over on a CASH on delivery basis. Sorry to be pedantic but strictly no cheques or cards for this deal!

There is no need to pay for items in advance just drop me a PM with what you want before Friday 14th March and I will take care of the rest.

Please only order if you want the item and will be at Middlewood for the meet as I will have to return all items that are not collected and that is a 2 hour round trip!

Below is a link to their website...

So happy shopping!

Simon

EDIT:

When you PM please let me know:

• Item title
• Size
• Colour
• Quantity required
• Price of each item (please use website price - I'll feed that into a spreadsheet to calc all discounts and then PM you back with your order value)

Thanks!
