The butchers still sell beef dripping. £1.25 for 250g seems to be the going price.

Suet is available too.
I simply typed in scottish butcher, suet into Google and it came up with page loads.
We used to buy it in the cawl. It comes in a thin thin skin, the cawl, and we peeled that off and chopped it up small for baking.

I used to run my car on waste veg oil and the quality of the stuff I collected varied from barely used to smelling so bad that I'd almost heave. I heard a few stories of places that never changed their cooking oil and just kept topping it up. Anyway now have a few gallons left which I use to help lighting bonfires.

On that note, the dry poppadoms can be quickly rinsed under a tap and popped into the microwave for 30 secs, turned over and given another 30seconds.
Done, cooked, crisp and non greasy :D
Poppadoms can be grilled too, also not greasy. But you gotta watch them.

We used to run the boat diesel engine on biodiesel made from waste cooking oil. The majority of it came bakeries and we'd cruise up the cut smelling of doughnuts!

Made you feel hungry..
