I had tuna steaks in the Algarve many years ago, and it was rather delicious. A sort of cross between shark and whale. Meaty and fishy, and really tender. Served with a salad and new potatoes in parsley butter.
The Portuguese certainly know how to cook.
They invented Piri-Piri chicken in a little village up in the hills near where we were staying.
My daughter, then aged 9, absolutely loved it, and once she tried it, she wouldn't eat anything else for the rest of the holiday.

Still hot and sunny here oop norf, but there are some clouds starting to gather.
I am sitting here out on the patio with my legs out and my Turkish all-terrain sandals on.
First outing for my legs this year.
Proper dazzling!

Really???
I mean, REALLY????
Why no love for a nice Barbecued tuna steak??? It's bloody lovely, bit of salt and pepper and a good squeeze of lemon and then BBQ until lightly browned!!!

Sounds good on paper Bobbers, but Tuna? The devil fish. It's cat food at best. Can you deliver a small portion of everything else? If not leave it behind the bike sheds at the village hall. Brown envelope awaits (standard charges apply) any chance of a ffs?
ION I've put all summer stuff back in the shed pending the real arrival of summer.
Cast ye no clouts ( with apologies to Frankie Howard, who was once a pupil at Shooters Hill Grammar School I'm informed)

I'd have forgiven you slur on our Tuna, but I can't forgive the request for a fish finger sandwich!!!!

[Magooagain]

To be fair to you Bobber's I've had some wonderfull tuna steaks as Glenrobb describes in various parts of the world.
But I wouldn't trust myself with one on a BBQ I was in charge of.
Bon appetit tout Le Monde!

[Mariosbt]

Early start for me I’m afraid.... what a weak excuse of a man !!!

[Bobberoo99]

Don't put yourself down Mariosbt, that's our job!!!

Some of my work mates and I are on a group chat on WhatsApp, a few of them were already quoffing at barely midday!!!

Just started!!

I’m very tempted to have some booze tonight, but I’m feeling the way I do when I know I’ll drink too much, so I think this evening for the TT VPU I’ll stick with a pint of Ribena. I’ve got wine, gin, rum, mixers, but it would just get messy, so I’m going to be sensible for once!

[DickyC]

I'm thinning out my collection of Brew Dog. There were too many. Some have to go.

[Scrump]

I’m thinning out my collection of Leffe.
Had all the blondes. Now working my way though the ruby.

Curry ordered so I will be having a ruby with the ruby.

[StuntmanMike]

Holy cow! We have thunder and lightning here on the Shropshire/Cheshire border.

I'm on the Hobgoblin, Cheers all, enjoy your nonalcoholic evening Dibble!!

It's starting to look a little ominous over towards the west...



Today I have been mostly drinking tea, coffee or orange squash
All of yesterday's pints of G&T and numerous pints of Tetleys were okay, but I may have overdone it with the homemade Reservoir Dogs.

I may just have a Tetleys now though.
See how it goes.

I thought I had had all the blondes.

I hope there’s no overlap the wrong way.

Fitting floor pans in mustang today {post welding, far side).

Dinner tonight was nothing exotic. Heinz cream of tomato soup and a couple of toasted (then buttered inside) pitta breads. I’ve just started watching a trashy Netflix series called “Schitt’s Creek”. It looks like “brain out” tv, but I’ve watched a fair bit of Scandi stuff today, so I’m giving my noggin a rest from reading the subtitles and following plot twists.

Bobbers, have you ever considered covering the tuna steaks in breadcrumbs, deep frying them and then putting them in some bread...?
