    reminds me - at work if you get a pie from the van all there is is 'Daddys' brown sauce to put on it. People's lack of discernment is shocking. Nevertheless when I complained no-one understood what I was saying. I was accused of being a prima-donna and that 'brown sauce is brown sauce.' In any case I bought a big bottle of HP -with my own money - and took in.

    Now guess what? No-body goes anywhere near the 'Daddys' shite and my bottle of HP is already half way down even though I've only used it once. Just goes to show.

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Ha - HP is good, but somewhat 'mainstream' and rather unimaginative... This is the TRUE DADDY of the brown sauce brigade: https://www.tiptree.com/index.php/brown-sauce.html

    You can also get it in Sainsbury's: https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/shop/gb...g#BVRRWidgetID

    Check out the reviews, via the above link... "So much better than the horrid, strong, vinegar laden taste of HP sauce. Fruity and mild".

    Indeed. Trust me, it knocks HP into a cocked hat!

    Don't see too many discerning prima donnas buying pies from a van - must be a Stoke thing

    Lol... Pies from vans? Perish the thought, unless it's a butcher's van and they've been made by him, and served fresh out the oven!

    Marco [super-fussy about the shit, posing as 'meat', which goes into mass-produced pies].

    You could always have a butter pie, no meat in that. And you should anyway, if it's a Friday - you should know that

    Butter pie - does such a thing exist? Never heard of it.

    I've always been very fussy about the contents of pies [yes, THOSE ones, too], and sausages, as cheap ones are bulked out with all sorts of shit, and the 'meat filling' usually consists of fatty entrails and other disgusting types of offal.

    Yes, that's what's in yer average Ginsters and such like!

    I don't really 'do' pork pies either, unless they're from a quality source, such as Melton Mowbray. For me, with pies it's normally the steak or game variety, served piping hot with lots of rich gravy and creamy mash... Yum, yum!

    Marco.
