Aibu to point out that 'Mumsnet' is currently trending on Twitter/X because a labour MP has (rather comically) reported it to the police?

Dawn Butler has reported Mumsnet as a whole to the police, for talking to each other and Having Views she does not like.

How do you do a crustless quiche please?

Fry onions til soft, fry off cut up bacon (about 6/8 slices if using back bacon), place in bottom of flan dish. Mix LOADS of eggs (for a standard flan dish I use 10) with milk as if making scrambled egg, stir in about 100g grated cheddar, season pour over bacon and onion, top with more grated cheese. Cook at about GM3 until it is not quite cooked in the middle. Take it out of the oven, cover with foil and leave for 20 minutes or so and it will finish cooking.

As you can see by the precise measurments I have been making this for years and the actual recipe is lost in the mists of time!

@Motorina fab idea! But what if it got stuck? Or pierced the fridge thus releasing noxious chemicals??! <fear>

She's a legend. Remember when she continually used the words of 'Something inside so Strong' repeatedly as her hustings speech. Queen of the Melts that one

I didn't know about this but 😆

Queen of the Melts indeed Grin

Saw that just now. I am embarrassed for her!😬

Ortila · 21/12/2023 21:50

@PyongyangKipperbang awesome, thank you 🤩 if you've made it loads then it must work. I am far from low carb but am not a big pastry fan. Cheers!

PyongyangKipperbang · 21/12/2023 21:51

If anyone is doing a spreadsheet can I please be places in a cell with poker and back gammon players please?

Also, I think we need to know who is going to be Queen Bee? Best to get this stuff sorted out in advance....should we vote?

RumNotRun · 21/12/2023 21:51

But I've only just bought Tunnocks! If I eat them quickly can I pretend I don't know you lot? My cats won't be happy if I'm in prison, they get very cross if they have to miss a meal.

Whoever offered the plum brandy - YES!!!! Palinka (and all the similar drinks) are my secret addiction.

Also to the crustless quiche recipe requester (try saying that after a few plum brandies!!) don't do what I did and think that a quiche tin with a removable base is a good idea. It isn't. The bloody stuff leaks everywhere!

Excellent hopefully I'll get prison time 😆 couldn't be arsed cooking the Christmas dinner anyway.
Instead someone else will be cooking for me for a change!

Sunbird24 · 21/12/2023 21:53

@PyongyangKipperbang i identify as a Chuffian, there are quite a few of us and we’ll need access to a tv for the critics’ Christmas special and the right to shout “Fuck off Gregggg” without fear of reprisal…

Its one of those things that you end up tweaking over the years to get it how you like it, so you may need to jiggle things a bit depending on the size of the dish, type of oven etc. I have also made it on a low heat in the air fryer, but keep a careful eye on it. I find cooking it at too high a heat made it go a bit tough and chewy round the edges, so I cook it low and slow.

OMG I know this, I know this. Hang on a minute. It'll come to me... the dangly bits... I'm sure I did something about this during science teacher training... Is it something to do with Count Tentacula the Christmas Octopus who comes down the hospital chimney and delivers 50% of the population a single tentacle to disguise their delicate flowery feminine feels?

OMG this has made me choke on my wine

Yes let's decide how we vote not on what's best for the country but whether someone shares our prejudices. That'll go great.

If you think that mp's like her are
best for the country you not only have a very low bar, but are obviously as deluded as she is.

What's the ham like in prison? <worried>

Doubt if its naice ham. Still someone here can probably butcher a pig on the prison farmyard and make naice ham.

Over the years I've found so many talented wims on here, wouldn't be surprised that all the trades we will need will be in prison together.
When exactly can I expect this arrest, need to plan stuff yanno

Momtotwokids · 21/12/2023 21:55

I'm in the US and would love to spend Christmas Eve with all of you. Don't really know who this Dawn is but willing to learn.

ill offer to be the equipment supplier for each of us.

AlltheFs · 21/12/2023 21:56

DH will be thrilled if I go to prison, he can hog the remote and imagine I’m up to all
sorts of lesbian action. It will make his Christmas.

I’m no good at pastry though alas.

I'll be the runner. The one who goes and gets stuff. Then I can keep up my 70k steps a day.

Ooh looking forward to this stretch now. How long do ya think we'll get

dapsnotplimsolls · 21/12/2023 21:57

I'm tempted to start a thread in Style and Beauty about how to make orange suit every complexion.

A massive salad can be made from dandelions, nettles and whatever else is growing near the prison yard.

Alphabet1spaghetti2 · 21/12/2023 21:58

@RumNotRun you had me at plum brandy ! I’ve got several gins and some whiskey to bring.
