Don’t go off the rails
it’s an experience to be enjoyed
notable scenes and brilliant landscapes
in combination with some fantastic food
normally, your food wouldn’t come with such great views
gastronomic delights with fantastic scenery
Salford, Monday 4th May
It’s early morning, as i rise
and the street is busy to my surprise
for waking up the chorus (Dawn)
a pussy cat, a little forlorn
He’d spent his time, with his pals last night
playing around under the street lights
but now Ra is up, it has to be said
this furry old cat wants in for his bed
His stomach is full, thanks to a friend on the street
corned beef from a can – a most tasty treat
but his thoughts turned to breakfast, as on street he did play
so off to the garden , he began to make way
And up is his owner, so he’s through the back door
and slowly he goes off to his bed on the floor
so while humans are out, with meetings they keep
our furry old pussycat, is in bed, sound asleep

#fowc #dinner
Dining, in all of its forms
is an art form that’s
not to be missed, now you can enjoy a salad or
notibly, the roast beef, veg and yorkshire pudding but
everyone secretly has a favourite take away –
roaming over there at weekends for a supper of fish and chips

Thursday 19th March 2020
Carrying on like they were in nirvana
Alert – the bouncers on the door
Rowdy – you’d call their behaviour – as they left the
On-licence publican’s for a place a little bit incognito
Under each of the revellers arms
Something rich, and red and alcoholic to go with their meal
Expect some fun and games at the Bring your own bistro
The noble fish sat on my plate
hadn’t had a battering
it had been enjoying a bath like Cleopatra
getting all warm and tasty
Upon leaving the path it was
wrapped up in a coat of green
to enhance its wonderful flavour
and rested on a bed of buttery potato
And while it lay there in on the plate
lying in its luxury
a cohort of peas stood on a potato ridge
to keep it safe from wondering eyes
But alas all were devoured
in the haze of white and green
grappled apart by trident and sword
by the chef and his guests

#Fowc #Debate
During the week, it was the hot topic of conversation
Election ? Europe ? no! none of these
But a culinary conundrum – which sandwich was better
A choice of Sausage, Egg, Bacon, or Cheese
The favourite – an obvious choice – but
Everyone wants their own bite of the butty!

#food #acrostic #spaghetti #bolognaise
Sent headlong into the boiling water
Pasta long and thin took a bit of a hot bath
As it did, the concoction it was being served with
Gradually came together, as minced beef met up in a
Hot tomato jacuzzi with onion , carrot and mushroom
Eventually,
Turned out onto plates and sauce and pasta
Twirled together round a trident aided by a spoon
Italian cuisine turned out on Mancunian plates
#Socs #Choices
Choices you make, can form you later on down the line
How you make them is down to you
Of course, there are many paths to travel, to where you want to go
It’s a decision you have to make…..
Cold or Hot, Coast – Countryside – or City
Even eating, can give you pause for thought
Should you have golden syrup or chocolate sauce on your pancakes ?
Glutton for punishment ?
Of course, you could call him that.
Useful to have at any
Restaurant table, he’s the
Main Man on the subject of what to eat
And what to shy away from
Note – however, the expanding waistline
Drop one day – he will
rushing about these modern days doesn’t do you good,
until you stop, you won’t notice the harm you do to yourself
stuffing convenience food down whilst doing a hundred other things
heart burn is surely on the way…so take it easy
