Burn 🔥 🔥

Massive induction convert. I think the only thing I miss is wok cooking on an induction need to invest in a proper outdoor rig a la @dbr to up my wok hey game

Anyone have experience of search funds? Would love to pick your brains as it's an idea I'm looking into

Todays haul

Damn! Looks excellent.

Hoping @Greenbank took my advice and is enjoying the $60k profit they made from Tesla stock in the last 9 days

I went admittedly a number of years ago and wouldn’t go off my own volition but it’s sort of fun and ridiculous and seemed to fit the brief

Tell me more about this slice and how do I order?!

I’d go for Blacklock, Hawksmoor, Beast or Berenjak if it were me

Blacklock seems to fit the bill. Hawksmoor doesn’t really miss either for client dining.

Berenjak could be an interesting option. Devonshire if you manage to get a table.

Marleybone - Lurra, St John, The Wigmore, Beast all seem like potential options

Not sure if @Acliff will kick off a new one of these in the new year but been awesome to see everyone's progress across the lifetime of the thread. Personally find it a great, supportive space to help with what can be quite a difficult to discuss challenge.

I'd also say that this time of year is generally filled with excess and it's more than likely we will all add a little timber over the holidays. Know that if you've done it once you can do it again, so have fun and don't sweat it too much.

eats another mince pie

I found that as lots of people are running spring marathons in the UK, training from now until then can get you a really good base for a 10k. I'd also suggest a running club helps for this and unless you are very good at being consistent with the high intensity sessions.

I'm hoping I'm finally over the itband niggle which has plagued me this year - just in time to begin a training block for an ultra marathon next May

Bloody hell! how many laps of VP was that and then an out and back? or a couple loops of the whole thing?

Thomas Joseph butchers would probably be my suggestion

The Gails mince pie is very good but at £3 a go it's hard to justify.
Tried some of the Waitrose cranberry and orange jobbies. They taste good but I don't actually consider them to be a true mincer.

I'm actually planning on doing a mince pie bike tour tomorrow around a few bakeries - will report back

Tbh this is actually where SuperDry made a good niche.

🤢 🤮

Ah yes - these are on my hit list for this weekend!

In other news. M&S coming in hot with this spiel

Beams do some which are nice in a very similar style - though worth checking the leg length.

My favourite chinos are from
natalino but they’re not the same as the ones above

Edwin, APC and Acne I think are decent jeans which match your criteria at the more fashion end of things.

I’d also go to clutch and Anglo Italian. They are both really nice shops which carry a range of different jeans by different brands in a range of styles. Find their service levels really good. I found SoS a bit snooty.

I wear a high rise jean but also like something softer. As such a washed jean takes care of some of that.

He checked for sharpness by cutting the hair on the back of his head 🥴

Also picked up this lil guy

Picked these two up on a recent trip to Osaka.

First is a Sakai Takayuki Inox Cleaver 210mm
And the other was a local knife maker

Waitrose florentine number. Looked good. Meh

Today i had one from pavilion - £2.50 or 4 for £8. Gotta say it’s the best one so far. Great pastry and decent filling. Little too sweet and not enough boozy tang but still for £2 it hits the spot

Bread ahead - £3
Less filled than thought
Pastry lacked butteriness
Filling ok but too sweet

Yesterday I paid £3.50 for a mincer from Yardarm - didn’t even have a pastry lid. Great mince though

Today I had a pannetone pain suisse from Forno and whilst not a mince pie would say it deserves a mention in this thread. Sensational. Should be for £5.50 mind.
