I have not had a very exciting time recently, as I’ve just been finishing editing Northern Exposure. This is probably reflected in the fact that the most interesting thing I have to write about is a new burger at McDonald’s.
It’s called the Oriental BBQ burger but mine wasn’t very oriental. Apparently I got the last [...]

Yes that’s right! I can exclusively reveal on my blog (well it’s an online exclusive as no-one else I know has written about it) that my mate G is getting married! He is having a barat on Saturday in London Town (well Watford) which me and the Miss Jill Morgan are going to. I am [...]

You know I love my breakfast food, and anything that is toasted that has ham and cheese in it.
Recently when we were out filming we stopped off at a place called “The Picnic Deli” in Killyleagh. They have an amazing choice of breakfast food. I tried the ham and cheese on French toast with dijon [...]

Hmmm. I would have maybe tried making flavoured vodka if I could handle more than a sip of vodka without:

Well I had a nice surprise last week when I received a parcel at work - my Mum and Dad had gone out and bought me the Tefal toast and egg toaster! It makes poached eggs, warms your meat, and toasts your muffin, bagel or whatever at the same time! This may not sound like a [...]

After two and half years, the Egg and Muffin Toaster (of my dreams) has finally made it to the UK, as the Tefal Toast n Egg. That is the good news. The only bad news for me is that it is only available in Comet, who don’t deliver to Northern Ireland. Could that be any [...]

Check it! It’s a cheeseburger in a can! Not for sale in the UK yet as far as I know, but imagine being able to come home drunk, get the can opener out and tuck into this bad boy! A perfect combination of convenience and meat. I love it!
