WI embarrassed by dressing as pirates for talk by former Somali pirate hostage. Truly brilliant.

I love how they take a 'if you want to join this band of insensitive nutters..." ad on the end of the piece.

More importantly did they buy them on the cheap? I mean, are they crushed and devalued peas?

Are they crushed by hand in their own kitchen? I

need to know.


Sue - they probably are :))


That's how I do mine, I crush 'em with butter+chilli flakes+mint (a bit Nandos of me but there you go) - delicious.


Mushy peas are a different beast entirely.

Look away now Sue if I were you


Crushed Potatoes to go with your Crushed Peas


Nursing homes have done this stuff for years, where did you say you were ?

I think it means that the last round of incomers (who moved here several years ago) now feel that they've been here long enough to trot out the same kind of stuff that they've forgotten people said about them back when they arrived.

    • Hi,  Julia is an old friend of mine and a talented artist. I have been travelling and would like to find out how she is or if anyone has any news about her. I have been in touch with some of her friends but since the care home she as in, in Peckham has closed down, everyone seems to have lost  touch with her and there does not seem to be anyway of contacting the company who ran the care home. She featured in one of the local newspapers in 2022 when there was an article written about her when she was in the care home. If anyone can help or point me in the right direction then please pm me.  Many thanks.
