Sorry MacGringo

I must have pissed off the Big Van Djick. Anyway, you were right and I was wrong. Thanks for the spelling and history lessons.

I'll give you that one Brody.
I think we invented some of the worst cuisine in the world too...a fact.

About Cuisine Yummy Black Pudding, Yorkshire Pudding, Shortbread, Full English Breakfast (If you want to have a heart attack), Fish and Chips, Chicken Tikka Massala and I am tempted to start ranting on about how disgusting Kebabs are but lets assume theyre not english... I will admit i thought Jacques Chirac´s comment on English food was pretty accurate...sad but true... To be honest though, I think only tourists eat local delicacies...or very very very drunk locals. And it probably applies to every where else,I have never been to a house in Colombia where I was offered a Bandeja Paisa (another heart attack)for lunch -unless it was a special invitation- , I dont know of anyone who actually likes Morcilla and very few people drink jugo de guananaba...because its grim... There, food isnt always directly proportional to the beauty of a country. Ajiaco is great though, and so are those stuffed aubergines at Selfridges.

the Lechon y Morcilla from the mountains of Puerto Rico is addictive.And jugo de Guanabana is the best.So are Colombian Tamales,Empanadas,Lechona and ofcourse,Ajiaco!

Hey Brody! i am packing my things now for the shipping container I hope to get this done and things shipped out in mid-september if possible. Then i will spend some time with my family in southern California and my son in Dallas, then off to Cartagena just in time to meet my cargo container there. I will need to stop off at Bogota first to finish up some work with INDUMIL there, then to CTG. Hopefully, it wont be as muggy in CTG by then! hahaha....once i get settled into CTG, we can hook up in Cali!

and of course i remember...hahahah....stirring up shit keeps the blood flowing! hahaha...

Just my opinion...

Och aye la noooooooooooh. well, normalmente las personas en escocia comen la comida muy simple pero no bueno para salud, por ejemplo.

1) HAGGIS - a strange concoction of calhunes/ calheiros de perro, swede, parsley, stuffing, blood or morcillo, skin, brocoli, carrots.

2) NEEPS - some kind of vegetable like leeks or something which is only grown on the higlands of loch ness.

3) TATTIES - patatas. but not fried this time but boiles

4) FRIED FOOD - siempre ellos gustan la comida frita - patatas frita, huevos frita, salchica frita, tomate frita, champinones frita..

plus , when you are a sweaty sock (jock) eating this food of course you need to have a wee dram with everything especially something like johnny walker is recommended..

incidently i have been working in a bookies o una tienda para recibir apuestas, in london temping before i go to latin ameica in 5 weeks and loads of the money we received from scottish people during the world cup was all ABE bets...jaja, anyone but england, but they didnt put it on us losing on penalties to portugal...jaja
