Me and adam were at the midlewood meet and it was below 0 deg at night. it was warmer in the day as you'd expect. I don't think kids feel the cold anyway and when the pig is roasting it will be toasty warm.
I'll pm you about the meet and kids.
Midlands Winter '08 Meet.

I'll pm you about the meet and kids.
T-shirts and lollies I'll take it Dave has his winter bushcraft gear sorted then, I'll bet that guy could give RM a run for his money
Right.... Bodge has put a very odd request to me.... We were talking about his oatcakes on another forum and he said 'on the subject of dooking (his word), would I fancy knocking up another chilli'
The question is folks.... should I agree to his rather odd request? Or should I find out what this subject of dooking is before I agree, after all it does sound rather odd to me. Must be some arcane northen ritual or other

:yikes: if it is that, then, as they say, B%99&R that for a game of soldiers!!!

I think he may have hit the 'd' instead of the 'c'. Cooking would make sense in the context you mention - he could have mistakenly hit worse letters :yikes: .
EDIT:
Erm ... Having now read the thread, he copied your word
.
LOL.... I know Bodge did a typo Dec... but the word 'dooking' just sounded so wierd I had to have a bit of fun with him.... and yes it's a good job he didn't hit the key to the right of D on the keyboard cos then he would have got me really worried about the knocking up a chilli
But in response to Bodges heartfelt plea (he even offered to provide the meat) for me to make a chilli at the meet, how many would be interested? Bearing in mind the weather might be cold, wet and miserable and a bowl of nice hot chilli could warm you up nicely

Yes your mistake indeed, and for punishment for such a typo and then trying to blame me?
You get to be 'head chilli dook and cottlewasher'

What he means is this to dook is to put apples into a tub of water and try to extract them using only your teeth the form used to extract info from prisoners was to place apples in red hot chilli and get them to extract them in the same manner we had a 100% success rate using this method

You've done it again.......Head Book and Cottlewasher
No dookin` Chili for me thanks Mesquite. Im sure they are fantastic as chillis go, but my tollerance of spicy food is about chicken Korma level.
On the Scoville scale how spicy is the chili?

Mesquite Chilli has to be tasted as it cant be described imo. but if you need a description, it's fab and not mega mega spicey.
I do think we need a bit of a shift system on the spit roast this time though guys.
At Middlewood, Bernie and I were very limited on what we could do because we were almost permanently working on the roast.
That was perhaps our own fault for not delegating enough, but some volunteers to take over for an hour or so would be most welcome.

You can rest assured Lindsey it won't be a mouth searing, ear blazing inferno chilli. I have to cater for all tastes with it so I reckon you'll be ok having a bowl full.
I was thinking the same Gary, especially after you were stuck with doing the stew at the May meet. I'm more than happy to put a spell in as well. I believe Bernie is working on a motorised spit so that might make it a bit easier to manage though.
Also, can you bring a cauldron and suspension chain as I'm doing a chilli for Bodge. He might even let some of the others have a sniff or 2
Talking of the chilli, do we want to have it at the same time as the spit roast?
