Heston’s visit

Broadcast
Major Dickie has been working hard improvising the required cooking implements. He’s created a steam jet using the boiler and the washing machine, fired up the towel rail heater and converted the wood burning stove into an oven.
Bring on Heston – we’re ready for anything!

That Banquet at the “Artichoke”

So pleased to see  Jenny “Licensed to Grill”  Bond lived up to her reputation of trying to create a crisis out of a glitch!  Well done!
Glad to see you got tucked in to your food before anyone could take anything away!
No wonder you’ve survived so long – always eat all you can when the opportunity [...]

The Great British menu – The Banquet

Broadcast
So tonight’s the night then!
The Great British Menu Banquet
I suppose we will see you scoffing  all those fancy courses!
I do hope you don’t disgrace yourself in front of the wonderful Lady Helen!
Will we be faced with dear Jenny Bond doing the commentary – gosh I do hope not – she‘ll only try and make trouble.
Well [...]

Heston’s Christmas

Broadcast
Well!!
How could you?
After all that incredible food and amazing courses he gave you.
Which one of you picked a fight with poor Heston Bloomin-Wonderful and bopped him on the nose?
Tansy

Hic! Heston Bloomin – what’s his name’s trifle

We started well with the 2 bottles of sherry. Major Dickie found the drill and threw away the coffee so he could create the ‘cement mixer‘.
I remember we put on the Janet and John CD – as directed by the food historian chappy.
I think things started going down-hill due to the numerous tasting sessions, as [...]

Heston Bloomin – eke’s risotto

Broadcast – but 1 day later to Heston himself when he was on TW’s show on Thursday 13th!
Oh dear, I have to say he lost me early on last night with all that rice cooking, drying and frying but then at last an ingredient every Tog understands – HORLICKS!
Hoorah!

Heston Bloomin-Eck and Terry

So I see you’re off to sample some Reindeer road-kill courtesy of Heston.   I should have guessed you’d be first in the queue when provender is on offer!
Given the way he likes to offer a total experience when he serves his dishes I do hope for your sake that the sounds coming down the headphones [...]

Heston Bloomin-eke and the baked alaska

It’s been another exciting evening in the Whitebytts household.
Major Dickie caught up with Heston Bloomin-eck’s latest offering and has spent the entire evening concocting in the kitchen.
After several hours he has only succeeded in making the cake section of the recipe, though the kitchen looks as if a bomb has hit it.
The results have been [...]

Heston – Bloomineke what a pie!

Broadcast – well most of it! 
Heston’s recipe for fish pie had Major Dickie outside last night, searching for the Rat Cage Trap in the shed and raiding the chickens’ USED straw bedding.
He’s now ready to light the barbeque and set fire to the straw so he can smoke the fish.
He gave up here!
I’m not over [...]

What’s happened to all the cookery programmes

Broadcast
One minute we’re satiated by the number of cookery programmes on the schedules – the next it’s Nothing, Zilch, nada, ‘Nil by mouth’.
Not a cook or ingredient in sight.
Nigella’s beauties have gone into hiding and Heston has put away his garden digger and returned the foot pump and spray gun to his shed.
Perhaps Bill, [...]
