I think Bereavement counselling sounds a good idea.

Yea. Ive been throwing myself into everything since mam and I honestly dont think I've fully processed it.

Ooh mince. I can work with that.

Halsall · 08/03/2026 19:04

Oh my goodness @PotterHead1985 - that's a lot to process 💐

Oh sorry potter ♥️♥️

PotterHead1985 · 08/03/2026 19:06

Thanks folks. Yea it's a lot alright. Its been a shite few weeks and a shite 10 months.

PotterHead1985 · 08/03/2026 19:06

What is with all the private chefs these days. Is it the new 'it' cooking job

ilovesooty · 08/03/2026 19:08

Elevate his meatballs 🙄

ShamedBySiri · 08/03/2026 19:08

So sorry Potter. Not sure what the ideal way of finding out is when you are no contact but facebook seems very grim.

littlbrowndog · 08/03/2026 19:08

Maybe not so many restaurants hiring chefs now ?

Halsall · 08/03/2026 19:08

Why do the words 'a wet polenta' not fill me with enthusiasm? 🤔

I like meatballs but not on polenta. I’m not a fan of polenta.

RomainingCalm · 08/03/2026 19:09

Evening all.

💐💐💐 for you @PotterHead1985- that sounds like a particularly shite week (and 10 months). I’d also suggest finding someone to talk to if you think it might help to process everything and just give you some space to share your feelings.

I know what they mean, but I am also with you, it doesn't sound appealing. And texture wise it reminds me of semolina!!!

ShamedBySiri · 08/03/2026 19:09

Ooh. She who must not be named …. 🤩

PotterHead1985 · 08/03/2026 19:10

And the fish sounds fab

Does not sound appetizing!

PotterHead1985 · 08/03/2026 19:11

Anthony looks like he wants to beat someone up in the vt there. But like a scrawny kid who is trying to come across tough!!

RomainingCalm · 08/03/2026 19:12

I did polenta once, it was grim. Even DH who eats pretty much anything suggested that we shouldn’t repeat it.

Caroline is seriously impressive so far. I hope she does well here.

PotterHead1985 · 08/03/2026 19:12

Oooh yuk sung. I love that. With the crispy noodles. Wonder is he doing the spicy or non spicy

ilovesooty · 08/03/2026 19:13

Speedy Giuseppe

PotterHead1985 · 08/03/2026 19:14

He seems like he has slowed down a smidgen.

Nonna

ilovesooty · 08/03/2026 19:14

Nonna

littlbrowndog · 08/03/2026 19:16

Fairly rushing though

PotterHead1985 · 08/03/2026 19:16

I love the sound of his dish to be fair. Would be something id order

Cookingdoesntgettougher · 08/03/2026 19:16

Screeching in late, this weekend thing puts me off my timetable
