Potatoes will not cook properly.
"Pam Moore" wrote in message ... snip You haven't lived until you've had an egg explode in the microwave! snip I haven't had that but I have had a bottle of homemade elderflower champagne, in an old screw-top bottle explode in my kitchen, luckily at around 6 am before anyone was up. Glass embedded in ceiling, walls venetian blind etc, all over everything along with the contents of the bottle. That was about 30 years ago and I have only made it once since! At least the egg would be contained in the microwave, I assume. Pam in Bristol Sorry to divert from spuds, but many years ago my bro-in-law was decorating his kitchen having sent his wife and kids to his M-in-law for a couple of dys. As a small diversion, in his spare time he decided to make some blackberry wine ! Fine - mash was fermenting well in the demijohn on the kitchen table. The ceiling by now was beautifully painted white! A rogue blackberry was carried upwards in the frothy head in the demijohn and was jammed in the fermentaion lock. Suddenly, with a slight pop! the blackberry shot out of the glass fermentaion lock and hit the ceiling making a lovely purple/pink splodge dead centre of the ceiling......."Oh dear, let's start again" was his retort.

Bill I can imagine the splodge, I like that new(to me)word. Lets have another go, this time please don't splodge the ceiling, again. Baz |
