balls, i bought some pineapples today, i was going by the PM list of stuff to bring. I'll get the avacados. Are there any vegans going? I've loads veggie ingredients & fake cheese.

Charco I'll give you a bell in the morning, thinking of leaving about 11ish - need to check the route though - I get lost easily, anything north of Blackfriars.

Not read a book for 20 years, haven't got the staying power, prefer to speak to people and drink beer.

Cool, i'm out and about early anyway, got to collect a frame from 50/14 before 9. I'll bring an A-Z and some booze so it's win/win.

YouTube - Bill Hicks- What your reading for?

Had crank fail on the way to 50's this morning & am running late. I may sit this one out & do repairs today. Please post the book recommendations & I'll catch up for the next one.

I was going to suggest Cosmic Trigger by Robert Anton Wilson

i have just rolled out of bed with massive hangover and half-read copy of hemmingway on the bedside table. so i'm out. but have fun, kids!

Not read a book for 20 years

That'll account for your half-baked ideas on a number of weightier issues then.

prefer to speak to people and drink beer.

though not at the same time by appearances.

shame you haven't got the staying power..

awesome meeting today guys! not only are we incredibly intelligent and sophisticated, but we can cook.

next up : **HAM ON RYE **by Charles Bukowski

meeting date sometime in about a month.. tbd.

hope you made it home alright on that rickety saddle prav! cheers guys for a really great afternoon.

my gooch hurts!

These are all very macho books. Can anyone join or do you have to smoke cigars? Not knocking Bukowski by the way

What a great afternoon! had apple crumble burps all the way back!.
Just spent half an hour giving my bike some TLC as it was squeaking horribly by the time I got home. I'm knackered after a good ride, some lovely food, excellent company and great discussion.
oh and non lactose chocolate mousse ROCKS!
yay!

agreed, it was a great afternoon! and no need for dinner...

you know, i didn't even know there was a thread for this...

super afternoon. i really think i ate/drank my own body weight today.

oh and non lactose chocolate mousse ROCKS!

Cool, did you have vegan food?

Good fun everyone - thanks for the hospitality Jacqui. Fluff and Clefty, sorry that we didn't get a chance to say bye before we had to bail. Glad that you got home povenrad - good luck with the seat post bolt.

Right...who has the recipe for the chocolate mousse?

I was about to ask the same question - I must have it! Wolf, post it up!

Cool, did you have vegan food?

well only the chocolate moose, but more lacto-intolarant friendly than vegan.

There was no recipe, but it is actually quiet easy, this is what I’ve done:

at the core of it was 400g lindt 70%.... (at least half of which was later sticking all over my kitchen). heat 1l soy milk with 1 vanilla pod and bind with cornstarch as needed, to create generic 'pudding base', let cool and settle for couple of hours. slowly melt 400g chocolate in not too hot waterbed. fluff 3 small egg white and bind with a tablespoon of dark chocolate powder and sugar. melt c. a dozen sheets of gelantine, not need to press all the water out. add to chocolate, from here on things need to happen fast. mix chocolate into (room temperature) pudding base, stir constantly! lift egg white under, lifting not stirring, fill into bowl and let settle. store in fridge but serve at room temperature, keep max one night (fresh egg) and do not give to weak or pregnant (or people on a diet).

You could replace gelantine by agar to go vegan, but I have no clue what vegans use to create a mouse (get air in) if there is no eggs or cream.
