Hey man,
Although I'm not in Reading I'm not a million miles away, only over in High Wycombe. Give me a shout at some point and I'll be happy to head your way for a spin. Or if you can make it to Wycombe I have started a regular spinning meet on Monday evenings to get to know all teh local spinners in prep for summer time firey fun.
If i had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isnt. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldnt be. And what it wouldnt be, it would. You see?

Pan's Lavyrinth is always good. We should watch labyrinth after that. The old one.

I would never share truffles. It's special seasoning made with North American ingredients instead of the European ones that leave you spent the next day.

Not at the moment. If the job market was better you might be having a more pleasant experience.
I wasn't putting North America up high though, I was talking about the special ingredient in the popcorn seasoning

You will have to explain these different methods.
I usually shake some salt over them with a knob of butter and let the butter melt in. Then they taste like salty butter.
