If done properly you use clay which goes hard and does not fall off as easy as mud, then you crack it like you would a hard boiled egg and the skin and prickles came away in lumps leaving the meat. Taught to me by true Romany’s years ago when I was about 8, they used to stay every year for a couple of weeks just down the way from us and had a son the same age as me.

Ray Mears is in the house! :laughing:

I learned quite a bit on how to survive off the land thru that family ( but not enough not to have to do the survival course when the maoster and I joined the SAS) from snaring rabbits to tickling trout, but I was not taught how to siphon derv or lay driveways as that was definitely not on their agenda, but did watch them making wooden pegs.

According to his original post Jim with 9 lives, there WAS a sticker on the cup he found.

Now keep up or I shall thrash you with the branch I ripped off a tree earlier.

I have lots and lots of McDonald’s coffee stickers…

The obvious question is where did these come from? :laughing:

Probably the same printer as the 2 yr tacho check stickers were coming from which why it’s now a hologram .

When I was a kid I would fish lemonade bottles out of bins and take them to the shop for the 3d deposit.
