Lets Talk Curry / Re: Al's Reviews
« Last post by George on May 06, 2025, 10:52 AM »
He may be the most successful of the white British individuals trying to promote BIR recipes. His following on youtube is significant and still growing. It probably generates quite a high income but I bet it's hard work. How can you really relax and enjoy a meal if needing to concentrate on filming and talking the entire time? He even had a visit from Gary of the gary eats channel, treating Al's kitchen a bit like a restaurant. I'm not persuaded Al's home cooked dish was good enough to warrant Gary's high mark but how can we know?

It's not expecting BB code between the [ IMG ] tags, George, just the URL.

Yes, the image host page also provides a direct URL. I tried looking up the image on my chrome browser. The web address came up blue, suggesting it's valid. The curry recipes image host page opened with a line saying 'loading image' but the photo never appeared. I fear the whole site is neglected with bugs all over the place.

Here is the web address if you can achieve anything with it, or perhaps the photo will appear here.

I agree that the ads are a frustration and quite a nuisance, however the fact that the site keeps disappearing for long periods is even more annoying with the last outage lasting 12 days for me.

Why can't we just post photos in the posting of comments, as attachments, as you do on any other forum, and how we used to be able to do it here?  Admin?  Why can't you fix this?

I'm growing more and more frustrated with the forum.  It is obvious that several others of the last of us are also falling off as well.

I haven't visited the forum much for ages and haven't posted for even longer. The worst change here seems to be advertising which interrupts me in almost full screen when I log on or move to a new section. And there's a similar banner advert at the top, right now, from a company I use to book trips as it happens. So irritating,

You also said: "It really pisses me off that I can't just post a frigging photo."

I always used to be able to print photos. Let's see if I can post one here, as a test. It's a photo of a burger I enjoyed at a cafe in Agadir a couple of weeks ago. Good food is so affordable in Morocco compared to prices in rip-off Britain. The meal cost about £3.50 As I think I have said before, I have cut right back on the number of visits I make to BIRs. Rent, rates and energy prices have no doubt forced them to increase prices to a level which I no longer find enticing.



Well, that failed. I uploaded an image to the image host section and pasted the Bulletin Board code in between 2 img codes in square brackets. But nothing. So what's happened?

It did go well.  The original 5 curries were all good and subsequent beef curries were also good.  I have frozen enough base to make another 3 or 4 dishes.  The beef (rump) would have benefited from longer pre-cook but it was acceptable in regards tenderness.  Chuck or gravy beef would be better.

I'm growing more and more frustrated with the forum.  It is obvious that several others of the last of us are also falling off as well.

I hope it is as good as he says.  I've just made a full batch, to specifications, Tomato Paste and pre-cook Chicken (thigh and breast in 2 separate batches).  I've just cooked 5 different curries and not tasted a thing in the process.  Just followed the instructions and cooked it, which is normally against every bone in my body.  Anyhow, we are 30 minutes away from giving it all a try out.

Hope it went well livo. Can you remember?

This place is grim. £10 for two lamb chops! And one needs binning.
