Dave I was taught cooking when I was seven years old by my dear mother, how to skin a rabbit, pluck poultry, make jam, sew, knit, and darn.

Well prepared Norm, but a lot of these tasks aren’t hard to do. Usually you can adapt to doing most things yourself.
Cheers Dave.

hiya,
E’r I can make a lovely cup of tea, or coffee but that’s my lot, anyway there’s a
canny chippy and a chinky not to far away and the corner shop sells those ready
frozen meal things and ready made sarnies so going hungry is out the question.
thanks harry, long retired.

I’d love to have a go at a drop of genuine Moonshine (or Poteen). Something with a bite of bite to it.

I know that some Poteen did used to come over with the Irish drivers (plastic milk bottles) but I was never lucky enough to drop for any. Maybe they still bring a drop.

hiya,
Towards the end of my working life I was for a short while put in charge
of a group of Irish contractors, sort of Clerk of Works/mobile Transport
Manager and I regularly came by the way of a drop of Poteen which did
literally blow your socks off but beautiful to drink and I defy anyone other
than a hardened drinker to down more than a couple of whisky measures
and be OK to drive, a lovely drink G O M.

There used to be an old boy in the neighboring village to this one who made all sorts of home made wine. Many years ago he gave my Grandad a glass of potato wine which put him on his backside. Apparently lovely to drink, but very powerful.
Sounds similar to Poteen . he also made wheat wine as well as lots of others .
Cheers Dave.

Hi,

Anyone know about a tipper driver called GRIZZLY, works round Derbyshire and Cheshire.
Not seen him on the road for some time, hope he is OK.

hiya,
Dave, Poteen is carried a stage further than the wine, potato’s yes, but
then distilled as you would whisky all very illegal but it is produced, and
it is a great drink, good stuff is as rare as chickens teeth, have known,
seen, and sampled said product in situ when a lad, all done under cover
of darkness, and a cloak of secrecy I hasten to add.
thanks harry, long retired.

Had a read up about Poteen Harry,sounds some fearsome drink. Did realise that it was a different type of brew,as in distilled etc. A lot of home made drinks of the alcohol variety are powerful.
Cheers Dave.

Do you mean Ken ■■?(possibly Mather?) who lived around Buxton and had an ERF? Would guess that he is retired by now.
