MCFrancis Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Here Ghostie, how do you poach your eggs in your restraunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The ghost of Jim Morton Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 I would get a pan of water add a dash of vinegar , bring it to the boil, take it off the heat, whisk the water vigorously' add the egg and pop it back on the heat.The spinning water and the vinegar help keep the egg together. Don't bring it back to the boil , just simmer for a couple of minutes or longer if you like it more well done. Carefully remove it from the pan with a drainer spoon shaking of any excess water.. Bobs yer uncle fannys yer aunty a perfect poached egg.. Oh and I dinnae have a restaurant anymore. I work at Perth College and if a student asked me for a poached egg I'd tell them to sod off:laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PERTHPOWER Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 GB, are you meeting up with Ghostie on Dunkeld Road before heading up tonight?

No not tonight , looking to cut down a little on the walking and upping the time in the training zone as that will start to burn the calories quicker. Managed 140,000 steps this week already,thats 20,000 a day but looking at 1.5 to 2 kg loss for that, a bit more jogging and hopefully it will come off quicker.

Working on getting the big man to pick up his toys and come back but if interested in his exploits he is easily found on facebook. It is quality reading.

THE LARK SAINT Posted November 10, 2010 Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 Good luck and Run fat boy run:wink: Thought i would give you guys a wee up date on my progress. The first week was torture, nothing went right and i weighed in at 106.15 +0.6 BAAAAAAD!! But this week has been much better, i played my normal footbal at McDiarmid on monday night, completed a 3 and a half mile run yesterday, had my Gym induction today and weighed in at 103.90 -2.25.another run tommorow, and the good thing is im starting to enjoy it, never thought you would get such a buzz and feel so good after running.

Over the Road Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Alright troops, not been for the last couple of weeks due to my dad not being too good then kids stuff last week. However, I ended up in PRI on Tuesday with chest pains. Kept in til yesterday afternoon while they did tests, scans & x-rays. Turns out I've got viral pericarditis, so half a pharmacy for the next wee while and rest. Recovery could be anything between 3 weeks & 3 months, depends how it goes. Anyhow, that's the FFIT done for. I might make it to the next group in the new year, but for those I've met and trained with, it's been a blast! Best of luck to you all for the next few weeks. Have a press up or two for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranmere Saintee Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Hope it is the 3 weeks and not 3 months recovery for you. All the best for a speedy recovery and it was good to put a face to the name, who knows other than at the footie you may have to put up with a couple of us at the next session as mentors!!
