Oh, Ian, that fire was outside from its start. The fancy wood-fired grill has a disposable grease catch-pan that needs to be changed out now and then. Allegedly, the younger one with the fire extinguisher did not check the grease pan before starting the wood fire for his father. But I suggested that such a claim was a feeble attempt to exonerate the father. I didn't get a second Bourbon Old Fashioned after that. :haha:

Meter rat, I’ll try some.
Professor, Take! that second old fashioned! Don’t “ask” for it. If you need bitters I’ll bring my bottle over. Well……if you lived closer.

Are there microwave instructions on those? My kind of home cooking.

They need the aluminium foil container to keep their shape. Can do them in a Ninja. Or microwave without foil if you don't mind a floppy pie

How do you pronounce "Pukka"? :sick: I would think a different brand name might improve sales.

Their Puk-ka pies sell extremely well :thumbup:

In England, one of the slang words for excellent is Pucker/Pucka/Pukka

Thanks, SOG: I have lunch with a UK friend four days a week. I am surprised he has never used the word. He was born in 1943 and emigrated to the U.S. in 1975, so he's not too old for a word with over a 200 year history (see https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pukka). What is more, by his own admission, he has been accused of being "a recalcitrant imperialist." :haha:
