Which DW character would you most like to be and/or meet?

[Chris]

This is actually really hard! I'd love to meet the witches, especially Nanny Ogg and go for a drink with her - i think it could get fun! But I also love Sam Vimes and would love to meet him and his son. Then there is the wizards, and Nobby Nobbs, and Death... Ahhh.... this is tooo much *head explodes*

Has anybody mentioned CMOTD yet?

[Chris]

What goes wrong? I presume you get an over cooked gung on the bottom of the pan?

indeed...and most of it sticks to the pan and it doesn't taste all nice like it does in a cafe...

Sorted. Tried it and what you need to do is rinse the grated potato in clean water. When you grate a spud you bust open a lot of cells and the starch gets out. It's that starch that ends up in the pan stuck to the bottom. I went a step further and partially dried/cooked the grated spud in a roasting tin in the oven while I fried the bacon in the butter (and a small diced onion). Mixed the fried onions and bacon into the now 90% cooked grated spud. Put the mixture back into the roasting tray and added grated Emmental across the top. Popped that back in the oven. Then grilled a Salmon fillet and steamed some Asparagus.

A great success

I'd quite like to be Sybil, stamping all round the house in muddy boots and tweed. And I'd like to meet Carrot, because apparently to know him is to like him.

I would like to meet Sybil and her litttle Dragons.

Carrot wouldn't be high on my list, I personally felt he was too good to be true, but maybe that's the point?

I wish I were that innovative!


I think that there are certain discworld characters I'd love to 'seee' not necessarily meet and spend time with...
Nobby is a prime example.

No, I think you wouldn't. Not afterwards, anyway. I think you'd wish you could unsee things.

I think with Nobby you'd definitely want to approach from upwind

[Perestroika]

when I say I would want to see, it's the sort of seeing you want to do purely because you've heard so much about their overwelming unsightlinesss, that you've just got to see it to believe it.

I'd like to meet Pretty Butterfly.

I like wimmin with attitude.
