Next time I get  across to you're part of the world I must try it.

On a different subject,  and definitely off topic.

Have you noticed any Earth tremors recently ?

There is a lot of seismic activity showing for the Market Rasen area. Been going on for a few week.

Here is the link. Select the Market Rasen detector. (LMK)  click 'View'.

Hi David, can't say I have noticed any earth tremors. I thought that the world had stood still in Lincolnshire.

Bluechip:
It was that fault that moved in 2008:

Caused a few £million of improvements to Hull IIRC ...  :ddb:

Bluechip,

These are real-time recordings.  Happening right now.

I wondered if there are any exploratory drilling s going on in the region. or, (let it be whispered) fracking.

Dave

By the way,  I did feel that movement back in 2008. Shook the house.

Many years ago, I remember, as a child, my Mum used to keep back a portion of the bread dough and then use it in the next mix !  Not that I've any clue why she did that.  Your recipe reminded me of it.

--- End quote ---

It's fairly simple really. What your Mum was doing was keeping the yeast or some of it back for another time.

Two things come to mind- sourdough of the old pioneers and fermenting to make alcohol.

I'd better sign as Fergus OMore because the name comes from the near the River Spey and- the Whisky Trail.  And no, I don't drink whisky.
