Never mind the cooking how about the clearing up

It’s all very well, To have that kitchen from Hell
And cookery programmes up to our armpits
But my heart goes out, without any doubt
To those washing up who must be having a fit
For its perfectly clear, as I’m sat sittin here
That the chefs like to play with all the utensils
And lots of pans and pots, so [...]

The TV Chef Cometh or Nigella came to call!

Broadcast
To the tune of the Gas man Cometh by Flanders and Swann: (with apologies!!)
Twas on a Monday evening Nigella came to call
She rustled up a Paella – it took no time at all
She forgot to cook for more than one – her amounts were up the creek
So I had to call dear Marco in [...]

Just as you thought it was safe………

Aaaaaaaah!    Just as you thought it was safe to turn the TV on!
Wrong!   Yet another Cooking (sorry cucking) programme hits us.
I thought I was safe – Kitchen Criminals safely over!  But No!
Now we’re confronted by John ‘I love a Race’ taking on a Takeaway Challenge – and yet more people to can’t or won’t cook.  [...]

A very weak Link!

As you were otherwise engaged – entertaining the nation – on Saturday evening, you will have missed the weakest ‘ Celebrity Weakest Link’ ever to have been recorded.

Question:  Which chef [...]

wall to wall cookery programmes

It’s Hell out there in TV land
What to put on the schedules each night?
It’s Criminal to think that someone might miss
The chance to enhance their cookery might!
So just to be sure that we none of us miss
That culinary or cookery gem
They just broadcast cookery all night long
It’s easier – so who can blame ‘em!
But back [...]

A little vice would be nice (offer from Lynn Bowles)

Broadcast – but not attributed!
“A little vice would be nice” reflected Terry one morn
Sounding a tad sad and a little forlorn
“Ah! I have one right here in my tool box” said Lynn
“You can have it, No problem. It’s shiny and thin.”
“Just screw it to the table and wind the handle around
You can clamp what you [...]

The Eurovision Dance outing!

Glad to see spirit of Eurovision lives on. The tactical voting on Saturday night was SO reassuring – I would have been really disillusioned if the best dancers had actually won!
