@winklesbloke.bsky.social Just had a go at making this, it works really well. I like smoked so I put a bit of smoked paprika in just to give it a bit of extra. Cost almost nothing and I'm going to try making with red next.
Happy Yorkshire Day to all those who celebrate. If I'd had forward thinking I'd have popped to Bettys yesterday (cheese fat rascel and curd tart - proper) but I didn't so here we are going to waitrose.
Thank you to the good people of Manchester and the Lord of feck off reform. Still way too many voting for the nasties, but at least they got trounced.

#booksky. Booker longlist just dropped. John of John I've read, Switzy I know about and don't fancy, rest I need to investigate - although I will say Booker is not my favourite prize as they can be a bit too heavy and worthy. @themarthamyth.bsky.social @ursh.bsky.social @ginny65.bsky.social

Seems good day to remind ourselves of what a horrible person Widdecombe was. Thread -
Snigdha@snig.bsky.social · 5mo agoAnne Widdecombe is the Reform Party UK's Justice spokesperson. A person known for explicitly bigoted views. In 2012 she wrote in defence of gay conversion therapy. Because to her, homosexuals must be unhappy. Originally in the Express, but archived here: archive.ph/nGCZk
