Ah jaysus. We lost out on a drawing of lots. Could they not have just agreed to give it to us after last week.

Serge Blanco was drawing

EU banking Authority is going to Paris. Paris and Dublin were drawn in the final round and they pulled a name out of a hat supposedly. Paris smells of wee.

Sounds awesome, I had a similarly good night. I broke up some glass to chew on, then I took a comb and gently brushed my eyeballs and then I hid a few fish heads around the house and turned the heat on.

Still though - listening to a Deep House mix by James Haskell sounds even better!

Very much alive and kicking. You're just older

isn’t it just the same as dance music?

House music is a genre within dance music. That's the way I'd look at it

Diabhal Beag

Tropical House is absolutely massive nowadays.

Funk, trance, techno, electro, garage, jungle, drum n bass, hardcore etc...

So many genres in "dance" music....I prefer the more tribal house sounds of Steve Lawler myself.

3-bed 2-bath House has been killing in Dublin the past 4 or 5 years.

Yeah it's a pretty broad title. But it's better than the Americans with their EDM.

Current favourites are Todd Terje & Paul Kalkbrenner. Older stuff would be Underworld & Orbital

Band wise, you can't beat a bit of LCD Soundsystem

What's special about house that it gets its own genre?

I'd definitely put LCD into the dance music category. Give them a listen (anything except 'Daft Punk is Playing at My House' or 'New York I love you'. I recommend 'Get Innocuous', 'Us VS Them', 'All my Friends' or 'Someone Great'). Quality

So I bought a massive thing of meat in a German supermarket last night. I honestly thought it was a pig's trotter, but when I got home and Googled Putenschenken, turns out it's a Turkey leg. It's a feckin beast of a thing, 2.3kg. Would you use the standard chicken cooking guidelines for this? I.e., 190C for 20mins per lb + 20mins? So in this case approx 2hrs?

House music is what you hear in shoe shops.

I'd boil it in it's own pìss for 3 years at 545 degrees...then leave it aside for 20 minutes.

Short answer is yes. It may cook quicker if the bone is in it.

If that's the weight of a leg, it must have been the turkey equivalent of a TH prop.

Brown it and slow cook the bastard with carrots and tomatoes, bit of bacon

Dave_The_Sheep

Is it already smoked? I googled it and it seems to come up with a lot of "smoked turkey" results...

Neil3030

Here's the beast:

(Just for perspective, my hands are so big I can palm a fullsized basketball).

It doesn't appear to be smoked, but I'll check it out when I open it later.

Can't go anywhere with an extradition treaty with Italy either.
