Talking of hedgehogs, and other UK wildlife…..
Next year we get to vote on which UK wildlife gets to figure on the new generation of banknotes. Tough decision, but personally I’ll vote for badger, robin, puffin and hedgehog. And feel bad for not choosing bluetit, fox, crested newt and weasel.

Could do with otters as well, everyone loves the otter.

Nah, my goldie and my collie are more than enough work! I shall have to make do with a mere 75% Yorkshire disguise.

I did have a roast dinner to test out the Yorkshire puddings in Yorkshire.

If you have the time to do so, pop down to the Royal Armouries in Leeds. Well worth the trip.

The stuff I really, really, really, enjoy are custards. I have no idea how to make a custard (or any type) which complicates things. No idea how popular custard is in general throughout the UK and other areas, but it is not very popular in other areas of the world.

My mother used to make some savory custards (this is different than the sugary and dessert custards most think of, and it definitely is NOT the frozen Custard that Americans favor) when I was young, but I have a hard time finding anyone who makes those anymore...anywhere.

Any stores or restaurants that focus on Custards?

My brother lives in Sweden. Whilst he can technically get custard there, it's from a speciality food shop and priced accordingly.

When he came over for Christmas he went back with 6 tins of custard from the Co-op.

Anything beyond the Watford Gap counts as North for me

I live in Guernsey. You all live in the north as far as I'm concerned.

(Unless anyone lives in Jersey?)

I believe our US friends have newer versions of both York and Jersey. And, indeed of England as a whole. And of Morrus’ home county of Hampshire.

Indeed. I live in the latter two and have relatives in the former two.

Why should we just borrow languages and recipes?
