          Probably the ones with the best back story imo.

          Good luck Al n. If you get through I will be tuning in. (I hate Masterchef I should add, although it's not as stuck up as it use to be)

            Cheers all!!

            I have no back story, or sob story or anything. One of the questions was "was there any difficult times in your life? "
            What that's got to do with cooking gawd only knows!

            They did ask for a photee too, which I found odd, so I uploaded a pic of George clooney :-)

                    Ideal opportunity to have told them how difficult it was when you captured a giraffe to keep in your garden and tamed him with your secret recipe for keeping him well fed :whistle:

                    Best of British luck to you al :thumbsup:

                      Ping should win it, more consistent with both the cooking and presentation.

                      I've still not heard anything as yet but everything still crossed!

                      Yep Ping looks like she may have it, she is very composed- but you never know! I did like the look of those chorizo quails eggs- bit of a maverick that boy he may just nick it!
                      Can I be the first to volunteer for the job of independant taster! That is if you want a half blind tester with no sense of smell and one functioning taste bud! lol!
                      Good luck Al n enjoy the experience, we will all be willing you on!
