Canal Fashion Shoot

[Lady Muck]

I saw a photoshoot going on at a lock when I was moving my boat very early in the morning in London.

There weren't many fashion clothes evident, as a matter of fact there weren't many clothes evident at all...

I didn't post any pics on here for fear of being Gibboed.

I carried on, British stiff upper lip and all that you know..

It wasn't up here was it? They actually filmed dogging porn films in the marsh carpark by the lock a few times. Proper film crew with cameras, reflecting screens, the whole caboodle. Unbelievable.

The model looks kinda worried, is that how Dean looks when it's a cloudy no-solar day, and the teen has been on the playstation for 10 hours straight.

 

cheers, Pete.

Perhaps if he smiled he'd show rotten teeth, never judge a book by its covers.

I still am not sure what hairy bacon would look like on a plate; by the same token, what are "turn ups" when applied to food?

[pquinn]

An easy dish to make at home is Bacon & Cabbage. Just follow these steps of Máirtín’s:

• Find some good green bacon, also known as “hairy bacon.” This is young bacon that has been cured but not smoked, and is usually thick-cut.
• Boil the bacon in water.
• Once you have a good broth, toss in your coarsely chopped green cabbage.
• Boil the cabbage in the water until it starts to wilt a bit, then pull it out.
• Serve the bacon and cabbage with steamed potatoes (still in their jackets) smothered in creamy butter.

turn ups...neeps.as in neeps and tatties in Scotland.

Ah, gotcha: turnips! Thanks for the bacon explanation (though I still wonder what is hairy about it).

Your dish is roughly the same thing as bubble & squeak, I guess.

[Trento]

You guessed wrong!!! Bubble and Squeak, at least in Lancashire is nothing like that..

[Caprifool]

The salt crystallises and becomes a fuzzy outer layer. Also with time, feral mold. Like on many other cured meat delicacies.

I don't believe I did, and I am not from lancashire. Bacon, cabbage and potatoes are what I think of as the infredients of b&s.

I love B+S and have eaten it for years. I've also been a veggie for years. Meat is not an ingredient. You bl**dy East Anglians!

But Derbyshire by parentage and birth. In fact i first learned about b&s from a chap at university who was a Londoner, and whose b&s definitely included meat of some kind. He reckoned it was a way of using up leftovers.

[Guest]

it was a way of using up leftovers.

 

it was in our house as a kid.

 

Often used as a way of cooking the left over veg. from the Sunday dinner, but I don't recall it having meat in it, literally just the veg.

[Pykebird]

We always used whatever was left and sometimes put an egg in as well! Just roughly chopped , tasted different but yummy each time! How did we get from fashion to food, by the way?

Use a Northern Irish accent and say "Turn Ups"

Sometimes this forum makes me just shake my head...LOL.

by natural progression.

[ChirpyCoot]

Fantastic! Love it!!

[magnetman]

Is it a tyre advert?

[lewisericeric]

Dean!!!

 

Only just seen this. How did this all come about?! So cool!!

[Nightwatch]

One of my sons ex-wife's (wives) used to seriously call in squeak and bubble. And she enjoyed suede and carrots!!!

 

Thankfully, as I say she an ex now.

Just seen this topic, it's great fun. A couple of points:

 

It's not a great advert for the jumper that the man feels the need to be close in front of a roaring fire when wearing it.

 

What's going on with your tyre fender? Why the feathers and why is the tyre end-on? If it were flat against the boat wouldn't that make the boat a foot shorter for licence purposes, while providing equal protection?
