Hi all,
Just a quick post to say Hello,
I have been a long time reader of all the forums, but now having just bought a freelander for the missis:eek: to run around in and to tow the caravan with I thought I`d better make it formal and say something,
the freelander is a td4 se spec on 04 plate, the only downside is it is a high mileage at 106k:( but has had a full lr service and still has 2.5 months lr warranty! so hope I havn`t bought to much of a pig!!(or a hippo!!):confused:
your thoughts would be appreciated.

best rehards

Ian:)
 
not anuther what?
freelander or missis?
me first flander but me second missis, thinkin of keepin this one though, just got her run in!!
 
kinell, anuvva tin shed towing emmet to clog up the roads!

anyways, welcome to loonyzone - just keep the pikey wagon out of Cornwall pleeeese!
 
treworgey,
dunt panic have to go to cornwell 4 bizniss regular, best thing bout it is the m5 out, so wont be draggin me mobile roadblock down there(smily face, wink wink,)
 
ferkin M5 dunt come within 50 miles of Cornwall
where did you study geography?

there are no motorways in Cornwall (in fact, there's only 1 Trunk road).
 
sorry u are correct, fall into a coma after m5, border just up bank coming into Launceston am i correct? by then am about an hour from my job, then a 5 hr drive home smellin of dead animals, do like it down there though. : )
 
the border between Devon and Cornwall is the River Tamar. If you're on the A30, you cross it about a mile west of Launceston - correct.

In fact, if it wasn't for a couple of miles at the North of the border, Cornwall would be an island.
 
Hiya and welcome, don't worry about Trewy, hes trying to keep people out of Cornwall incase they eat all his cornish pies!

Cornwall Pastie Recipe Method

The Pastry
Place flour and salt in a bowl, rub in the fat, until the mixture is so fine that it falls through the fingers. Tip mixture onto a lightly floured table top. With your index finger make a well in the centre of the mixture. Add water a little at a time until it forms a pliable but stiff dough.


The Cornish Pasty Filling
Finely chop the steak. Dice the potato, swede and onion. You may prefer to slice them. Add seasoning. Mix all in a bowl or to be really authentic use your kitchen table top.
Using a floured table top roll out half the dough to a circle the size of a plate. Make a mound of the filling in the centre of the dough. Dampen round the edge of the dough with either water, or milk. Fold over the dough, to make a half moon shape, crimping the edges. Make a slit to let out steam. Brush with beaten egg to glaze.


Cooking your Cornish Pasty Place on lightly greased metal baking tray in the middle of a preheated oven, for around 40 minutes at 450 F . The pasty is cooked when their undersides turn brown and crisp. Cornish Pastie History and Folklore-Cornwall



There is as much folklore around the Cornish Pasty as there are recipe variations. One such tale said it was bad luck for fishermen to take a pasty on board a boat, but then again I know a modern day skipper that 'loves his pasties'. A very famous photograph from the late Nineteenth Century shows a group of tin miners at 'Croust Time' , that is meal time to you and I, tucking into very large pasties. Incidentally the mining boom was largely over by the 1860's Such pasties would have meat at one end and a fruit filling at the other. Whatever the truth there is no doubt that the pasty formed an important part of many working Cornishman's diet, be they miners, farmers, or fishermen. With the decline of the mining industry in Cornwall many Cornishmen were forced to emigrate, as far afield as the USA, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. taken the pasty recipe with them.
