The Right Honourable Les Q Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 ...well, it's one way of trying to ignore the fact that we conceded another late goal yesterday and remain rooted to the bottom of the table. And it'll save time on Wednesday when Lady Q and I are trying to get the big old bird out of the 'Steve Brooker' and finish the roasties. We don't want any last minute howlers orcock-ups, do we now! Making gravy from scratch has a number of tenuous links with football and setting a team up. For one, I'm hoping that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. And I got off to a flyer. I just went one-on-one with an onion, but unlike poor Sammy, I sliced the opposition open and came out on top. No tears involved there. So, I'm on top at the moment, but there's still a long way to go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Right Honourable Les Q Posted December 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 In the next 5 minutes you will drop the flour, have to tidy up No, no. It's okay. The four table spoons of flour were incorporated in with the base, stock ingredients, in a planned tactical move at half-time. Then the liquid was added just after half-time. Again, a pre-planned addition, as I like to see it, rather than a 'substitution' per se. Just can't get the bloody thing to thicken up enough. I need a late bit of genius to pull this one out the fire. Need a last minute winner... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
