In reply to Paul: re: "Jude what did u cook?"
i made a chicken korma from a proper indian recipe, you know, with ground roasted coriander and cumin and all the right stuff, with basmati rice. then for afters i did a selection of home made ice creams - peach, strawberry, and also vodka sorbet.
In reply to Brian T: i wondered where you were, what a shame you missed it Bry. however he did answer your sweet and crisp questions. he knew you thought he'd say seabrooks
in reply to Jonathan: there's that other Jonathan isnt there Jonathan so last night i was posting your questions from Jonathan T.
anyway, besides another big thankyou to John for carrying on so long last night answering questions, i just want to say thanks to my hub, Martin Veale for doing all the clearing up; to our own Jonathan T from Saudi for taking over the typing whilst i had a break and for entertaining the kids; and to John, Mart, Mitch and Jonathan for all providing a really fascinating background conversation.
