Hughie, I had a good wee blether sitting in the Sun at Stevenston Cross earlier with your niece Brenda McIntyre - one of Bert and Susan's daughter's.
Her older sister Agnes and her man used to live next door to me many years ago in Forde Crescent but I only found out about their family connection's with yourself today .. it's a small world right enough. :)

Stevenston beach got a wee mention on radio 2s breakfast show this morning in an interview with Chris packham about his bioblitz project. Apparently he was in Stevenston yesterday, maybe Iain had something to do with this?

Love those lassies. There is a video of them I took back around 1964 before Brenda was born. It's in the member's area.

No' sure whether I should have put this in the Recipe's topic as it's not actually a recipe in itself.

A wee bit of info on who the lady is that does the 'What's for Tea' videos on youtube.
There's some footage included here of her recent trip to Arran. Keep an eye out for the Chocolate Shop in Brodick - as it was originally the Butcher's shop I worked in many years ago. :)

Whilst in the Lidle supermarket in Stevenston earlier I noticed that they had some frozen 'Kangaroo Leg Steaks' on sale - while stocks last - at £3.99 for 300 grams. It stated on the pack 'Produced in Germany' - which is where Lidle's originate from - and also 'Imported from Australia'.
I'm wondering not just what Roo tastes like, but also how the price here compares to what the norm for it is in Oz. :)

You've maybe misread my post, SC, as I don't think they were killed in Germany either. :lol:
