    The interesting thing about the last computer one is, that when it couldn't understand what I was saying, the line went dead! It didn't click off or anything similar. :scratch:

    I'll see what the next one makes of 'Jabberwocky' :heehee:

      Canadian lobster - £5 at Iceland.
      They must have been inhumanely farmed to generate a "profit" at that price.

          ah - thanks for that @alex-adam . My apologies to Canada; makes interesting reading. And makes these in Iceland a bit of a bargain ( they are already cooked ) - anyone got any good hints on what to do with one? Breaking it open would be challenge enough I would think!

              I've not 'cleaned' or should I say dressed a lobster @Jenny namaste but have cleaned crabs. The first tools that I would have to hand are a small hammer and nutcrackers.....yes, nutcrackers. :)They are good for cracking open the small legs. A narrow stiletto type knife is handy to clean them with.

                      Tut! I was thinking on forward preparation Armandii. I don't know......can't say anything round here without it being misconstrued! :heehee:

                      I have good reason to believe Jenny would like some lobster left to eat Zigs! :biggrin:

                          Thank you Sheal for that. I'm a bit accident prone and have been to A & E for a stitch job before now. I think I'll leave be and let others braver than me to have a go.

                              Lamb has become horrendously expensive in the past few years - no idea why as is mostly fat in my opinion
