Lucky you!

I'm really lucky that one of my best mates here is a Cornish girl who makes "Cornish" pasties in her shop down in the valley! Ok, she can't call them cornish pasties as they are made in France! BUT, I call them Cornish pasties :lol: :lol:

I wasn't that bothered about trying one as when I'm on the coast I'm normally eating seafood, but there was such a queue outside this place, we thought we ought to give them a try. That one was a standard size and with steak as opposed to mince and I certainly got the point of it being a cornish miners complete lunch. Very filling and makes me want to try making one.

There's a knack to making them, and the twist in the pastry! Let us know how you get on when you try :D :D

Ginsters, and anyone else using minced meat, or diced veg, make pies. Pasties need cut pieces of beef and chipped pieces of potato and swede.

Getting older is way preferable to the alternative,though that has to be a photoshop what with Muz smiling and stuff. :P

Nope. But my eye was drawn to "that" patch before it was drawn to KFB.
