Cheers, buddy. I do like to know these things.

Does anyone else want to tell us what they've got lined up for dinner?
I have just had chicken fillets cooked with thyme, parsley, garlic, lemon and paprika. Along with a salad that was lettuce, tomato and avocado. It was all on the same plate, as I like the juices of the meal mixing with the salad, even if the dressing was also very tasty. Not a fan of having the salad in a bowl next to the plate, it doesn't do it for me. Would like to eat it all again to be honest. I may have a Magnum ice cream now.

Nice one, buddy.

Did you prepare the meal yourself?

How was your stew and dumplings? I did have Chinese dumplings the other week. Fried until golden brown, they were fantastic. I believe they consisted of pork and prawns. The only reason I had them is because I went to the Chinese shop(UK equivalent of Paki shop) and they had about 100 of them in the freezer, not to sell, but for the family. I asked if I could buy 5. He gave me 10 for free instead.

Yep, the meal was lovely, thanks. The missus is not a pro chef, but she certainly knows how to cook. Plus I'm quite a fussy git, so she does well to keep up with my wants.

Free dumplings, eh? Can't be bad.

To be honest, mine will be fried for longer. Dip them in soy sauce then down the hatch.
