I can't believe it's not butter!!!

Lads, the fool would be the one who thinks that this banter is exclusive to this page.  In every single forum I visit, these very same points are debated. There is never an answer and some members will never read about it, so they carry on, oblivious to the frustration, or lack of, that is causes, or doesn't, in others.

Hijacking, over-quoting, aggression, repartee, textual jousting, censorship, etc.  are all part of the digital age, along with many other unwelcome but unavoidable consequences of the technology we use and have come to rely on.

I believe that this thread has significant merit as it allows people to express their feelings about how a shared resource is used.  As a public place we need to be mindful of just that.  I disagree with the suggestion to remove it, but lets keep it civil eh what!

Thanks uncle but I'm on the other side of the planet.

Fair enough Phil.  Consider me suitably rebuffed and never to use the atmark symbol ever again.

All others. Please forgive my folly. I have given myself an uppercut and will refrain from further irresponsible and faulty advice. (I hope)

I don't have a clue what this is about, but clearly somebody isn't playing nice.

Check this out.

Well I'm about to embark on another little project or 2.  I have been researching the possibility of the Tandoor. My intention is to either try to pick up a used one or build one from ordinary materials, some of which I already have.

I'm looking at the steel drum / terracotta pot method.  Does anybody already have any experience with this? Is it a viable option?  They look like the idea is reasonable to use well enough for a home application. Not sure whether to go gas or charcoal.

The other thing that needs doing is a cupboard to store my growing volume of spices and other ingredients.  The kitchen is not huge and Mrs livo is shaking her head at my efforts to find places to safely store my collection of goodies.

@Phil is not trying to teach anyone how to suck eggs here.  It is a recurring problem on all sites I frequent.

Again this goes back to good forum etiquette and practice.  Education on how to use a forum is a good thing and so this thread has significant value.
We need to all remember that Junk in = Junk out.  It is understood that some people look at any coding language and are immediately put off even trying to edit posts as you suggest @phil, but once examined it really isn't too difficult. (Although I wasn't prepared to tackle that code for those Tables.  Just because of the time it would take.)

When addressing someone, or referring to their previous post, use the "@username", or even "@abbreviated username" to refer to previous posters rather than quotes all the time.  People understand what is meant even if the post you are referring to is several posts up the page.

There is also a "modify" button right next to the "quote" button.  I use it all the time, particularly if I've made an arse out of myself, although I don't "drink and forum" any more.  Hic. That is to hic cause some prb hic prolblemmmns. hic

Thanks. I'll check around local Asian stores for similar product.

Hi Rusty,
Get your spices ready and start cooking.  This site is a wealth of information.
