I`m sitting here in my pyjamas, typing with one hand and eating Fish & Chips with the other. I didn`t get home from work till nearly ten pm, I`d plated up a nice salad in the fridge at some ungodly hour this morning for the only member of the household who has to be up early tomorrow...ok, I should have flung another couple of salads together for myself and son, but the word `chippie`popped into my head, first time in about 12 months, and the fish batter`s all soggy and I shan`t be leaving any..BAD FLUFFY.. but it`s nice.

Row faster, slaves! Caesar wants to waterski!

You deserved it Fluffy. If you decide to be naughty then forget everything else and enjoy. Not too sure about the soggy batter though.

I left a load of chips though....Dingo, the soggy batter is the best bit, fishy and soggy from weak chippy vinegar - I scraped every last bit off the paper.
My usual Naughty pig-out is the lovely pancake rolls from our local Chinese Takeaway. And a big bag of prawn crackers...I have got around this temptation reasonably well by doing my own stir-fry, on days off, crispy roast duck (baste with vinegar/sugar/soy sauce mixture) `Straight-to-Wok` noodles, and the Blue Dragon sachets of Black Bean Sauce - or a jar of real Hoi Sin from Tesco for a change.

I use the same stir fry sachets from Blue Dragon, plus chillies usually. Sharwoods egg noodles and nuts (OOh no vicar) for texture.

Try this link Fluffy. I haven't used them yet but I will unless I hear anything against it. They sell Bombay Duck, I haven't had that for 20 odd years at least.

Good link.
I remember them as being very very salty. I thought they were made by being buried until ready then fried. That would explain the questions about food poisoning. I don't know if that is true though. Made you drink lots of fluid. When I say fluid you all know I mean beer/lager.

Thanks for that link Dingo, I`ve bookmarked it to peruse at leisure. There is a particular `Curry Marsala` that my late hubby used to get from his previous boss (who lived in Nottingham) and I`ve had a lovely time trying to find the same stuff....though I failed, I ended up making friends with the folks in our local Asian shop - one of my Indian colleagues off the ward was in there shopping the first time I went, and she introduced me to the folks who run the shop - ever since I`ve been treated like a long-lost cousin every time I go in there. They`re really nice folks.

(tonight I`m facing temptation again after a long shift..did the plated salad for them this morning, but now it`s just for me I`m fancying a fried egg bap. OK, I`ll stick a few salady bits in...)
