Yep.

Got to say - Magnifient McLaren speaks my language, though. Proper working lad:

Chritzo = sausage

Dauphinoise = Mashed spuds

Pudding (knew it!)

Only justarugbyfan from the International RL pages left to vote, he likes cakes - mentions them in his sig.

We have cake, the Ockers, [i[size=85McClaren Field, 2011[/size[/i, don't.

Not good news. Another vanilla slice-er. Just hope he likes rhubarb...

What's the next round then? might influence my vote to know what's coming.

You guy seem worried about a "joke" menu

You were the one asking about voting off first!

I'm only asking about voting now as there is a 50/50 chance that this could be a tie.

I'd prefer a Tie, we have dead weight that needs shifting and it will bring us closer to me winning this thing.



Where you been, anyway, and where are all your 'mates'?

We've just been biding our time, watching and waiting

That Vanilla slice was good.
I ended up eating all that meal (except the beer because it was 11 in the morning and i was driving). I haven't had a vanilla slice for years, but i enjoyed the hell out of that one.
The sausage roll was surprizeingly good too. I'm usually a pie man.
But i have to say, i prefer the vanilla slice my mother used to make with passionfruit icing. The tartness of the passionfruit really cuts through the sweetness.

The failure to mention the setting has been noted



Of course I expect it would be difficult for that judge to decide where he took friends to dine and wine....

I am about to set off on the Heathrow shuttle.
How, for the love of Thumper The Rabitt is this even close?
That's the last time I read Mr. McFlurries blog, and even if I do, I won't laugh on principle.

I may have neglected to mention that in the last two 'survivor' contests, the most light hearted entry has won nearly every round.

The vanilla slice blew you guys out of the water, they could not have picked a better dish, its like they read my mind. Likewise you could not have picked a worse pudding than rhubarb, as one who was tortured at primary school in the 1960s by rhubarb crumble and that whole thing about "Is it apple, is it apple, is it, uuuurgh its rhubarb" when you're handed your pudding plate by the dinner ladies, you brought back all the wrong memories.

The ambience ?

Roadside caff, sat in the sun facing the Danny Buderus stand, drinking beer, eating vanilla slice, hmm, where was the other one again ?

The task was to come up with a 3 Course Meal..
So we have clarified that you prefer a vanilla slice to rhubarb, fair call..
However a sausage roll and meat pie and you judge the competition as a draw..

You are either a Leeds or Wigan fan....

So what you are saying is that this is not really a competition as it was initially portrayed but just an excuse to mess about...now I understand why you have a load of 20 yr olds on our team.

I really hope we lose now and I get voted off because I have better things to do than mess around like this tbh.

I don't know how it will play out here, because it seems there is a culture difference, but on our message board people wanted to have a lot of fun with this, and 'serious' did not score well.
Most of the tasks were judged by other board members, and it really came down to who could 'entertain' the judges, and 'humerous' was what they wanted.

So basically the task was to think of 3 foods that will appeal to judges and amuse them and not a 3 course meal ?

I blame the scientist

Well we started out by trying to work out what might appeal to the judges - decided they would be League fans - and chucked in as much League culture as we could as well as humour. But when we heard the judges were foodies we weren't too confident about our strategy.

Safe journey.

Yeah, it's pretty much an excuse to mess about. It was up to you to please the judges, not the other way around.


And you're winning! Could have been worse - BG had even more difficulty getting your presentation to work than me and almost gave it to Newcastle as a walkover.

No subjectivity next week.

Mess about...I have not had a fag for nearly 4 weeks, I tell thee I am on the edge..

Yeah sorry about that, I have removed the older versions of software I use so was unable to make it backwards compatible, thought it would be alright because everyone on PM got it to work. You mods must be running old browsers?
