How are curries, Dals, Kormas, Tikkas, Hot Pots et al classed as Stews - they aren't, plain and simple! The name gives it away does it not? "Braised" meat is way closer to a stew than the above, but is still not a stew..... I'll give you "Lancashire Hot Pot", but "Sichuan Ho...

Looks wonderful - I daren't show the LHG!!

We all know that there is a degree of state ownership/sponsorship/subsidy in all China's larger international companies, a bigger problem will emerge when the west starts hitting such companies with huge import duties, as the US has with EV's, hence the importance of Europe. The UK is already talki...

^I doubt if China's problems are helped by being the world's largest importer of fossil fuels. Not quite as simple as that - look at how they are used. This also leads to another very valid point regarding EV's, how is the electricity used to power them produced? I worked on numerous power stations...

Welcome neklov - how about an introduction, a little about yourself?

Posting here rather than the "China Thread" as I feel there are more issues to come to light with regards to Chinese EV Makers/Producers.. And their "investors". I'm quoting friends and relatives here (at this stage), but with the huge discontent within China over the dire job ma...

......Especially at the arse-end of the season when nothing makes sense. :D Including my Yellow Cap this round!! :shock: Damn I could have done with several more rounds like that a tad earlier!! Well there's always next season (a common phrase in Welsh Rugby circles... :cry: ) :cheers: :cheers:

Had not heard of these - and the HK element certainly interests me. Shall visit Annas-Archive!! I should warn you: there are no pictures and some of the words are quite long... :duck: As always, your comments shall be treated with the contempt that they deserve.... But thanks for the heads up :thumb:

Rumours are that Mercedes are bringing in certain upgrades for the Miami GP which will make a major difference....

Anywho - books rather than TV (my bad)

Owwww! That made me wince just looking at it! I was thinking maybe accidentla, but a second look makes that unlikely. And tjhere won't be a third look... Going back to this, I've seen/heard nothing more - he was back playing last weekend and will no doubt be on the pitch again this weekend. Somethi...

Plus Salah's been shite for seven games now. And one or two others can join him I guess. Salah was quite poor I believe when he went for the "Africa Cup of Nations" - is that the same for others amongst the EPL teams? As much as they do run around like girls (yep - sorry), they do run (OK...

What the bollocks has happened to Liverpool? Once on for a "Quadrupole" , now pretty much ZIP. Is the Manager to blame, the Players (have they stopped playing), the Hype.... Plenty of injuries I hear, but many others in the same situation surely? Hell's Teeth, I really thought they could d...
