Roast muntjac with red wine, rosemary and redcurrant & mustard mash recipe

Just in case you are reading this and wondering what on earth muntjac is: it's a type of deer, lighter and generally less gamey than venison with a very low fat content and a wonderful taste which I would compare to rare beef. We get lots of muntjac in the area I live in as we are quite close to where muntjac originated. Well obviously not originally - originally they were from China but were brought to Bedfordshire in about 1900 by the Duke of Bedford. Escapes and deliberate releases have resulted in a fairly wide spread of wild Reeves" Muntjac to give them their full name. Interesting fact - they are believed to be the oldest breed of deer with prehistoric remains found dating back to as long as 35 million years ago! They are considered a serious threat to woodland management as they will eat almost any plant material and therefore I am occasionally offered haunches by a local gamekeeper who owns and manages a local ancient woodland. So - onto cooking. Y...

Desperate Dan Cow Pie, inspired by Black Country memories

When I was young it was a real treat to be taken to a chain of novelty pubs in the West Midlands where amongst other delights you could order a Desperate Dan Cow Pie, complete with pastry horns. The Little Pub Company had a number of pubs including the Worcester Sauce Factory, the Dry Dock (which had a real canal boat as a bar) and of course the Pie Factory. I recall the pies being quite a feast with whole potatoes, sprouts, meat, carrots - basically a whole meal under a crust. I believe some of the pubs still exist and still serve the legendary pie but are no longer owned by "Mad" Colm O'Rourke who was a friend of the family. Pies of course have had something of a revival and recently a friend suggested we hold a pie night where all the guests brought along pie, sweet or savoury. I've been wanting to try and recreate the Cow Pie for years so after a chat with my mum (who used to watch the pie fillings being made decades ago) I decided to have a go alb...

Myfirst Fone R2 Smartwatch-Review

There's a point when your precious baby is keen to make those first fledgling forays from the nest which can be a terrifying time for many parents. You want them to be independent of course but what if something goes wrong or they get lost.... That's where this fabulous little bit of tech-the Myfirst fone R2 smartwatch- will bring reassurance and security. The Myfirst Fone R2 smartwatch is not just for young children in my opinion. For parents of some autistic children and young people (like us) and others with children with other additional needs, that full independence may never be achievable. This may help give them at least a little more freedom. In our case although our youngest child has had a certain number of birthdays there is still a strong chance she might find herself requiring extra support for her whole life so it's great to be able to give her the ability to contact us during the rare times she isn't with us. She attends a club with other ND teens and I...
