Feeding Turkeys Too!

In an earlier post I talked about our Rabbit feeder cum Goshawk feeder, but it's also a Turkey feeder. Our good friend Rolf has threatened to make it a Turkey feeder cum Human feeder - apparently he likes the taste of wild turkey.

On the Hunt for Lancashire Oatcakes

When I was young and living in Bristol (SW England) my Grandmother used to bring Lancashire Oatcakes when she came to visit from Wigan, Lancashire. I fondly remember the oatcakes as a special breakfast treat. She bought them in the local market, wrapped them in a damp tea cloth to keep them moist and we ate them the next day after she arrived. They are best described as soft oval pancakes – but bubbly and grey. I’ve decided to find out more about them, and hopefully to be able to make them. Here’s the best page I’ve found so far (where they describe oatcakes as looking like a wet flannel), although they talk about Staffordshire Oatcakes – other websites point out that oatcakes vary considerably by region and are largely unknown in many parts of England. I also get the sense they are dying out. I’d love to get a recipe, but I expect I’ll have to experiment a bit to create one that matches my memories. We’ll see…

Technology Enabled Clothing!

I take lots of business trips and I take lots of gadgets on those trips - I think my electronics probably make up at least 50% of my luggage by weight. I've seen laptop bags that have pockets for 'everything' as well as ways to inteconnect the gadgets within the bag. But it's a first for me to see technology-enabled clothing. I guess I haven't been reading the right geeky 'zines.
