Good skills. I was gifted a young buck (15kg) from a local RTA a few weeks ago. I salvaged 7kg of decent venison.

Was there a lot of damage to it ?

That weight excludes the offal and stock bones. There was almost no meat on the rib cage. Young buck. Large enough but hadn't filled out. The kids are drying the hooves. The liver was badly ruptured and one rump was heavily bruised.

Lunch today was prawns sautéed in lime juice & coconut milk with root ginger, onion & garlic, served up with Thai rice and a finely-chopped mix of onion, green peppers, carrot, black mushroom, sugar peas & god knows what else. Excellent.
I've dusted off all those old bottles and set them up straight

A beef and horseradish sarnie made with that multi-seed bread. Delicious.

Some home-made butternut squash soup into which, sadly, I have put
1) too much water and
2) not enough chilli.
As I make and freeze big batches of soups, I'll be consuming this for a while yet...

Half a baguette and a pot of smoked fillet of duck pate.

Bon appetit!

A couple of venison burgers that had been lurking in the back of my freezer compartment since the dawn of time,   and a 3 egg omelette with a dash of habanero sauce.

Have a trifle for dessert, or a chocolate mousse....

A very nice grilled trout-like fish with some veg and a few chips, a beer with that and a very nice cup of black tea to follow.

Ersatz carbonara, made with Tesco's smoked back bacon and mature cheddar rather than pancetta and parmesan.

Damn tasty though.

Had: perfectly-roasted duck accompanied by tagliatelle with broccoli alla Montalbano.  Would have been great with a good Cahors but had to make do with water.

Hooky (Hook Norton), Nut Brown (Adnams), Marsh Monkey (local cider), roast potatoes, cheese and biscuits - all courtesy of the Admiral's Arm in Queenborough. If you haven't been, I suggest you do.

Cook spaghetti and steam chopped spring greens over the top. Fry chorizo until the fat runs, then add garlic and chili to the pan to cook for a minute. Greens and pasta in the frying pan, squeeze of lemon juice and some zest, mix for a minute, serve with parmesan. Lovely.

Coo! A whole year between lunch postings!

We had a roast beef supper last night.

Don't think we'll have lunch for HOURS yet; my partner is a troglodyte...

Salt and vinegar Hoola Hoops. I didn't know such a thing existed, I thought they only did plain- can't believe I have been missing out on these all these years !
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.
