My guilty pleasure, and I realise I might be forced from this establishment for this, is a record which came on in the pub on Friday night. Olivia Newton John...Xanadu  Please can I stay? I like it here. Say it quietly, but I do own her greatest hits, and the cover version of her hit 'Physical' by Goldfrapp is one of the sexiest tunes I've ever heard... Anyway, ON-J was accompanied on the original by the Electric Light Orchestra, and there's nothing wrong with ELO. |

Mmmm, baklava! Haven't had any in ages, think I might be on a mission this afternoon!
Instead of the usual nut mix, put in 80% dark chocolate, honey and rosewater with a rosewater/sugar glaze. Its utterly decedant. |

Ditto on whoever mentioned the pretty lingerie... weak, weak, I am weak...
Oh, are we supposed to feel guilty about that?  Not so much guilty as GOOD GOD MY BANK BALANCE! BUT I NEED FOOD TO LIVE!  But if you don't eat then you can fit into even smaller, slinkier lingerie Advice duly noted Nobody is to starve themselves just to fit into lingerie, I'm sure you all look fine in lingerie as you are! But just to be certain, you should all provide photographic evidence to substantiate my assertion. Purely in the interests of my theory you understand.Ahem. Right, where was I? Oh yes, guilty pleasures. I tried baklava about a year ago, it was devine! have you got any recipes i could try, RoseOak? Gareth |

Personality quizzes. I know they're pretty much just for advertising and a waste of time, but I still do them once in a while.

Cats! This is my favorite musical ever! I've had about 15 cats throughout my life that have been named after various cats in the show (I'm still waiting on the perfect tuxedo cat that I can name Magical Mr. Mistoffelees). I got pulled out of the audience by Rum Tum Tugger during his sexy dance once... that was awkward. |

Its simple. Just prepare your pastry in the usual manner, mix up 2 bars of 80% dark chocolate grated to a rough mix and enough honey and rosewater to make a spoonable mix. Layer pastry and chocolate mix and pour over the glaze. Bake untill pastry is lightly browned and crisp. Cut into triangles whilst still warm and eat whilst sitting comfortably. Glaze recipe: 2 tbs sugar to 3 tbs of water. Heat untill all the sugar is dissolved and mixture is slightly thickened. |

Thank you. I'm a bit worried about the first two words of your reply though: "It's simple" . You're talking to the guy who, on reading the instructions: "place mixture in bowl and place an upturned plate on top" understood it to say: "Place mixture in bowl and place upturned bowl on a plate" Gareth |

Well this requires nothing more then a bowl and a grater and even if you do have a mishap the blood won't show. You can just sprinkle honey over the top instead of the glaze but I like it with a bit of bite. |

Steam Train vs Stage Magic: The Ultimate Showdown! and the train's made of... STUFF. Bit of Trivia here from within the industry, what aspect of the production do you think the production of Cats spent the most money on? |

The answer is, Condoms. In order to protect the radio mics from incredibly sweaty furries, they used to put the mic pack inside a condom, since they weren't re-usable, they had to be new condoms each show.  |

Magical Mr. Mistoffelees Behold, his Majesty, The Magical Mister Mistoffelees. We call him Mr. Moo Moo (or Moosey) (its his registered name - he's a 20 pound Silver Persian)  I'll have to admit to watching (umm, regularly ... ) Project Runway (oh gak) and I've been known to listen to George Michaels - that's coming from a snob that spouts hate about pop music daily. (wincing - waiting to be hit with a loaf of bread) |
