Be Jaysus that is a €500 fine for you then.

oh as in, the TWO of us might have a glass of something and some nibbles while watching it = PARTY! LOL...

the concept of a "party" has shrunk dramatically in my mind of late..
my subconscious way of dealing with the restrictions I guess.. I try to have fun in any way possible... milking any excuse for a little celebration in the absence of life's normal social affairs.. (while adhering to guidelines zzzzz grrr)

I'd happily join a virtual party (is there any other kind these days???) - but I have to do a night shift later


But I'll be there, swilling the San Pellegrino like there's no tomorrow!!

Masterchef final followed by the Sewing bee. Now that's a lovely Wednesday night
And an ad for Call the Midwife's return on Sunday too!!!

HeidiHeidi

Here we go!


Fizzy water at the ready :rolleyes:


(what I wouldn't do for a glass of chilled white after that gorgeous sunny day )

HeidiHeidi

That splatter/bloodbath plate :eek:


Hash to be dish of the series (and not in a good way!)

HeidiHeidi

A pal of mine lives local to Mike - they're rooting for him, hoping he'll open a restaurant in the neighbourhood!


Lucky them!!

twill

I can definitely see Mike opening a restaurant. I'm just wondering if his dessert will let him down here.

I hate this part 15 mins in and nothing cooked yet.

Me too.


Pure padding. Complete waste of time.

It’s mine to lose - Alexina Has she sealed her faith, people who are too cocky rarely win.

Mike - dessert
Alexina - timing
Tom - wacky cuisine mixtures


Any could do it, I reckon, but it's anyone's to lose!


I like her attitude.

HeidiHeidi

Hurray, 22 minutes in we're finally in the kitchen!


How many minutes for John and Greg waffling?

twill

Yep, this could be close. Looking forward to it.

HeidiHeidi

Jesus, Alexina :eek:

twill

I have no clue what Alexina's menu is about, but she's certainly going for it.

Meauldsegosha

Like the sound of Alexina’s starter and main. Dessert not so much, not a fan of apples in desserts.

HeidiHeidi

Mike picked a very simple dessert - probably sensible, but will it be enough?


Can't say any of the menus would do it for me - all a bit too out there (and I don't do seafood)

HeidiHeidi

OMG, I so want to try that apple dessert!

That's a high bar she's set!!

I dont do seafood or veg so I would be no good as a judge!

Meauldsegosha

Mike‘s game is over,mistakes in the main and dessert.

HeidiHeidi

I'm gonna say it now, Mike hasn't done it

twill

High standard overall, though.

HeidiHeidi

Going by their language, I'm guessing Tom will get the win - he'd want to really feck up with something not to.

HeidiHeidi

I'm a huge gravy fan, but that sauce looks yuk

Me too - but I was really hoping Alexina would do it.


He absolutely has the win here.
