  1. Was it the new Carrie or the older one you watched? I quite like the look of the re-make, the advert makes it out to look quite good. 

     

    Me and missus are planning on watching a Christmas every day up till xmas from this weekend, so any suggestions outwith Home Alone, Elf, Muppets xmas carol, and the other usuals would be appreciated.  

    Bad Santa is good!

    As is Die Hard and Jingle all the way.

  2. I've not caught up with this season of

    walking dead. I've got them all downloaded but I've been too busy to get stuck into them!

    I too share the love for all things post- apocalypse.

    Have you seen/read 'The Road'? It's proper good. Grim, but proper good.

    Me and the missus have been raking through the C.D box recently and sticking albums on that we've not listened to in a while. This got stuck on last night. Still can't really understand why I haven't listened to it in a while. Beautiful, haunting music. You can even listen to it for free on Constellations website. http://cstrecords.com/cst018/

  4. I made some really hot chili last night after drinking a lot of rum.

     

     

     

    Ingredients:

     

    Chicken (I like chicken chili, you can put in any meat,veg or pulses you want though)

    1 tin chopped tomatoes

    10 odd birds eye chili's (depends on on how hot you want it really)

    3-4 odd teaspoons of chilli powder. I used Habanero powder from this kit but again adjust to your desired heat.

    Couple squirts of Tabasco sauce

    Bottle of beer (I used like 3/4 of a Newcastle Brown Ale)

    1 Onion

    Garlic (can't remember how many cloves, probably 2/3)

    Little bit of Coca Cola

    Stock cube

    1 home measure of rum and coke

    Note no kidney beans. This is because I'm not a massive fan but feel free to include!

     

    Method

     

    Chop and fry yer onion and 3-4 of the birds eyes with some butter in a pan.

    After a couple of minutes fling in some coca cola and the garlic. Just enough to cover the bottom of your pan.

    Pop the lid on and keep giving the odd stir until the coke has been absorbed then fire in your meat or veg of choice

     

    Whilst the frying goes on combine the rest of the stuff  into a big bowl. I added the rum and coke at the end but that's because I only thought of it then. You can add it whenever you want. Chop the chili's up but leave a few in big-ish chunks for some excitement.

     

    Once your meat/ veg has been browned/sealed/softened/whatever pour in the rest of the ingredients, give a good stir and stick the lid on the pan.

    Let it simmer away for a decent length of time. I used an episode of man vs food as a sort of timer. Gave it a stir in the adverts, another stir when Richman began the wings challenge and then turned the heat off once the episode was finished.

     

    This is where I left it last night as I'm planning on eating mine tonight.

     

    However if you're making it to it eat it the same day this is the point where you should chuck your rice/whatever on.

    Keep the pot of chili on a low heat whilst the rice boils. Once that's all done fire it onto a big plate and tuck in. I like chili with cheese, sour cream and some corn tortillas for scooping action.
