    Kneading the dough is also a great way to get the ingrained dirt off
    your hands after fixing the bike..

    I find 1 part wholemeal to 3 parts plain white flour using 1:1
    vegetarian suet and olive oil for the fat works great, and prove the
    yeast first, even the 'easy cook' dried stuff.

    Never in my life have I heard that 3 parts plain flour using 1:1
    vegetarian suet and olive oil as a way of cleaning hands.

    Sir, I doff my cap to you, I am in the presence of a master.

    I minced 3kg of elk meet by hand (knife and chopping board) once. Oh for a
    mincer..

    A hand powered mincer works just fine for that. No need for a electric
    food processor.

    I didn't have a mincer, just a chopping board, a large knife, 3kg of elk
    meat (and other ingredients) and a room full of hungry kids..

    Yes I can see turning an elk into a mousse by hand could be hard ;-)

    That sounds like the beginning to a very interesting story!

    Pusher! Whats the going street price at the moment?

    We never eat biscuits because they have yeast
    And one little bite turns a man into a beast
    Oh, can you imagine a sadder disgrace
    Than a man in the gutter with crumbs on his face?

    So, step 1 was to deal with the kids, right? Then you've got the elk to
    yourself ...

    Edwards Lear knew about this almost two hundred years ago!

    "There was an Old Man of Calcutta,
    Who perpetually ate bread and butter,
    Till a great bit of muffin,
    On which he was stuffing,
    Choked that horrid Old Man of Calcutta."

    Salvation Army Song, or Song of the Temperance Union. There's a nice
    version of it here: <http://www.whitetreeaz.com/awayrum.htm>.

    The first 4 verses are traditional, then there are umpteen modern new
    ones, some of them very good. I first heard this song on a Julie Felix
    album (Going to the Zoo).
