I live on an island off Wales and Dai the Fish our local fisherman has taken my £lots to WU on the mainland. I asked the lad if he likes fish:

Quote:

Dear Ethel infact i love so much because its highly nutritional and nourishing coupled with the fact that its easy to eat and also digest unlike meat,eating it is like a tug of war,why i dislike meat is that after eating it,i'l have to use tooth pick,most times i inflect injury on my gum. Can't wait for this transaction to be over,most atimes i sit and think of both of us in a Ytache sailing,or we could go on Dai's Boat,do you delight in adventures?. Adams Smith.

There is something pure and innocent about his love of fish. It's a testament to the human spirit that a man who could rob you of every last cent, could still wax poetic over the virtues of some good fried haddock.

Fish and chips are the basis of world peace.

Sunshine: try getting some recipes out of him!

Give a lad a fish, and he'll eat for a week.
Teach a lad to phish, and he'll get rich.

A lad too lazy to digest meat Laughing

Tis better to eat fish than "swim or sleep with the fishes"

Sounds like he's trying to eat the toothpick as well. I thought fish was supposed to be brain food. Laughing

Adams, dear, you must kill the goat first.

He may not be terribly bright or spell very well, but you gotta admit this is an "Awwwww" moment:

@Ghost: IMHO isn't that most lads? (or do I only talk to the lower class ones?)

Cool

Still trying to get a fish recepie out of the lad... However bad news concerning Dai the Fish and by implication our lad's MTCN:

Quote:

Hello Adams

No Dai is not back yet. We are all very concerned for him. He left Llamedos at 3pm according to the harbourmaster there but he has not arrived back in Pidin Tawr. He should have been here 4 hours ago.

We are all very worried for him and have contacted the coastguard and air-sea rescue. I am co-ordinating a search team here on Pidin Tawr and will be going out to look for him very soon. I will keep you informed.

Dai is Lost At Sea...or as Sigur Ros put it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOuKdeZ2x-M

I'm wondering how did he wanted to sail on a iPod skin ? (http://www.itache.com)

Perhaps Dai was found by the sea rescue, but there is a small problem.
He has turned into a Mermaid! Superstitious lads should be easy to convince.
They believe in that stuff, moreso than dragons. Smile

^^^ The good news is Dai the Fish was found after a night floating around without power after his boat was rammed by a whale.

I've put him in the hospital for yet another day's delay and lad frustration.

However we're planning a big get together for Dai when he gets back to the island so I have asked the lad for his best fish recipe as I want to cook him something special Smile

UPDATE: From the lad (emphasis mine)

Probably a mistake but I have asked how you make it!

And here is the lad's Fish Pepper Soup recipe!

Quote:

All you need to do is to first of all Put a moderate amount of water depending on the Amount or number of Wish you wish to cook.

Once you have put the water on fire immediately you put in a High Proportion of Fresh or grinded Pepper ,then you add your seasonings and also salt to ,with Garlic too which should be grinded too,though there are some other Native spices that are all included but i know for sure you people do not have such ingredients over there in the United Kingdom,then you leave it to cook.

If you can get what is called Saint Leaf,is used for Meat or Fish pepper Soup here in Nigeria and it gives it added taste and inviting aroma.

Once the Water seems getting dried in the Pot,you now taste for yourself to see how tasty it is before you now drop it out of the Fire,once its tasty,then you know the Fish Pepper Soup is Ready.

Though here i majorly enjoy the Pepper Soup with Cat Fish or Tilapia,are you familiar with these Fishes?.

Hope to hear that you were able to prepare it and it was Delicious.

Lovely... perfect for enjoying when you are having adventures on your ytache

You probably need to top the dish with some Shito

I tried to make this recipe but couldn't find a genie in the supermarket ... and try as I might I can't get the water to light .. can I boil the water and substitute 'fish' for 'wishes' instead?

^ If wishes were horses.
Don't ask me what that means, i heard it somewhere and it obviousley meant something to someone, so i'm repeating it here. Wink

I think you should ask to be sent:

It's not available here (wherever that is) and you NEED it. It's the missing ingredient that your - mariage/career/life depends on.

Ask him about importation legal-requirements requirements for seeds/plantlets etc..

^^^ I think the whole saying is:

Ok, so hastily Googling, I was able to find that Peppersoup is common in Nigeria, almost a regular dish. The meat can be beef, goat or fish. The spices are duplicable as I found a "substitute mixture" at Food.com. The thing I could not find is saint leaf.

Two options:

It is dialectical name for bayleaf, common in the adopted cuisines (English, Portugese, and Spanish) of Nigeria or,

The shamrock, as I found this: Nigeria - Saint Patrick, yes St.Pat is parton of Nigeria.

I think clarification is needed. Pictures of saint leaf, etc.
