And yet again someone expresses an opinion and yet again the opinion is verbally abused.

Only this time, I don't see Phil getting all uppity about it, because this time it doesn't suit him to do so because he agrees it with it.

Good stuff, I've got your number 118!  ::)

Please don't don't post stuff like this

Yes, point taken, I am suitably chastised and regret posting such an aggressive and rude comment.

However, my sentiments remain. I'm not convinced by this person or his claims, but as others have rightly said and pointed out, it's perhaps best to remain quiet until such a time as his claims can be tested via his book.

Indeed it would be.

Indeed it would be.

And I intend to because I'm finding all this extremely tedious now.

"Intend to" until it suits you to do otherwise.  If /you/ are finding it tedious. imagine how the other 19644 members must feel.

However, a later message from Chris does seem to support your hypothesis that this was intended for exactly one person (otherwise I think he might have written "/those/ who come to my house ...") :

On that note we can also conclude that the selection criteria wasn't clear too, seeing as I was the first who happened to see/reply to this topic and yet I haven't heard from h4c about it.  ::)

Depending on when you are planning to schedule this, I would definitely be up to. What is the nearest airport to you?

Sorry goncalo i thought you was joking "What is the nearest airport to you?"

I wasn't, but I can see how I got misinterpreted. I lived in Cambridge for 2 years+ and during that time I flew back and forth over 40 times between Stansted and Dublin. I am now living in Dublin, but I still feel like visiting great britain is just a small hop away.

Ok no problem, Manchester is the nearest airport (about 20 mile from me). You are welcome to come to my house if you still want to.

Can't really argue with that offer. Photos  are great but tell very little. No more books for me, but at least H4ppy has been very upfront from the start about his venture.
pity no one got around to visiting c2g to taste report back

@jb - I use the Ashoka Banjarra paste/oil in nearly every curry i make, to start dishes & a chefs spoon or more at the end. That was in the original kitchen report

It just disappears into the dish. Without this, all the recipe's in print etc taste nothing like what i may buy in a restaurant.
It would probably work just as well without the onions, which would make it easier to make.Old fryer oil doesn't add anything good as far as i can tell

I'm surprised this has been on the forum for so long without many takers.

Another thing i noticed when in a open kitchen ta was the amount of meat liquor/stock ingredients added along with the meat(this was more oily than watery), it almost produced a curry in itself.
The amount of gravy then added was far less & a bit thicker than i've saw in vids & read.
The depth of flavour produced by that is unreal. The same was done with chicken


The result being that the chicken & lamb "karahi's", although there was no karahi in sight  :) looked & tasted nothing like each other.

I've been following this with mixed feelings. On the one hand, if anyone can make a few bob from ebooks , then good luck, but is this really going against the spirit of a forum like this ? I agree with CA, that if you feel you have discovered something that might be of benefit or interest , then post it. using the forum as a kind of free advertising is another thing.

I liked the way CBM's ebook was brought to the attention of members , not by Mick himself , but by a member of the forum, Mick said he didn't think it was right to promote it here himself.

I admit I'll probably buy this ebook, but as I say , I have reservations about the way this is going.
