As always, May is Candles Run month and so the newsleer is devoted to that EX234 in the main, although there are the Meet the members regular secons and contribuons. Candles Run Report With all the photographs posted up from the run, as Phill Jukes, one of our photographers, pointed out to me, what really stands Vintage Fesval out is that everyone is smiling and enjoying themselves. As you will MG Motor News see in the report, it’s been all posive and we have had some great Black Puddings feedback from our parcipants. Our photographs we’ve chosen for the newsleer reflect what the day is all about; dogs, people and Feeling Tyred! our very own “gilets jaune”! Rolling Road Day On another note, this month has also reminded me of the benefits Forthcoming Events of being in a club and more specifically, our club! Without going in to too much detail, crunch me arrived this month and the 1100 Contact Us had to be finished. Unfortunately, a school boy error meant the engine had to come out again.

None of this would have happened without the help of Steve Neil Wallace - Candles Run Brace, Stuart Bebbington and Neil Wallace.

Since West Cheshire MGOC started back in 2008 the meeng fee has been £1, and we ran raffles to supplement this when we wanted to get items like the gazebo and flags, we are on our 3rd gazebo now, the last paid for from fees alone. The monies raised are used to keep costs down for our members at events we run – for example, we have subsidised Christmas meals (£175 last Christmas) and supplied food at a reduced rate at shows and garage days, and covered car show display ckets that were asked for but not used. Unl now none of the people who organise any of the runs or events have claimed any expenses, but we would like to be able to offer some petrol money to cover the cost of all the miles covered in the planning. We also, now produce a monthly newsleer/magazine of high quality which we wish to carry on doing, although we will try to fund that as Congratulaons to Ma much as possible from adversing. Brookfield and Rob Fryer We are also looking for another meeng place as the room at the Shrewsbury Arms is too small for the numbers we get at each meeng. on their various It is very hard to find a venue with a big enough room & car park, that fundraising efforts doesn’t charge, but it seems likely this is the way we will have to go. respecvely undertaking We have also decided it would be fair that our regulars that support the the Chester Half meengs and pay their money should get first choice at the events we organise such as Taon Park, Gold Cup, garage days etc. thereby Marathon and the CWL benefing from their membership. Then aer that if there are spaces Charity Canoe Challenge. we can offer them to others. We also understand that not everyone can aend every club night owing to work or health issues, but want to aend events and support us, and we can come to an arrangement, so please do feel free to speak to me. I hope that the rise in the fees will not put you off and that you will sll support us as we try to help you enjoy your MG – and the West Cheshire MG Owners’ Club - to the full.

We are all familiar with the looks and shape of our MGB's and MGB GT's. The MGB was first produced in 1963 with the MGB GT being introduced in 1965. Throughout the producon period ending in 1980, there was very lile change to either model's body shape - apart from minor cosmec changes and the introducon of the black bumpers. However, had things been different the cars could have had completely different looks. As early as 1964 BMC were looking to replace the MGB. It was felt by some that the MGB's live rear axle gave the car a disappoinng road handling experience. BMC's product range was also heading towards Hydrolasc suspension. The decision was made to go down this direcon with a replacement for the MGB using the familiar suspension layout of the ADO16 range. Rather than incorporate this into the original MGB's layout it was decided to fit this into an enrely new car and Pininfarina was given the job of designing this. And so the MG EX234 concept was born. The car was more compact than the original MGB in an effort to bridge the gap between the MGB and the Midget in order that it could be considered as a replacement for both models. The EX234 came back from Italy with an A series engine. It received good reviews with road handling from the new suspension system being described as excellent from many experts, including a certain John Surtees. However, in the end the project was shelved by BMC. Both the MGB and Midget were selling well and the BMC management considered that there was no immediate need for a replacement. Once the merger with Leyland kicked in the balance shied towards using the Triumph name which was the final nail in the coffin for the EX234. However, the one EX234 built was saved from the scrap yard and is sll privately owned today. So for those of us who love our Bs and GTs just the way they are, a good result all round. And had we wanted a sports car with hydrolasc suspension and non-Italian looks, we could have always bought an MG 1100 - just like Marn. 5 Meet the members! Name: Phil Nighngale Age: 67 What MG(s) or classic(s) do you own? 1973 MG Midget How long have you had it/them?: I have owned the Midget for just over 8 years and our first long trip was to Midget 50 at Burghley House in Lincolnshire. Have you had other MGs or classics before this one?: Between 1968 and 1975 I owned 4 Minis, 2 MG Midgets a Sunbeam Alpine and two fibreglass bodied specials. Whilst all these would be considered classics now, at the me I owned them they were mostly referred to as ‘Old Bangers’! What made you decide on an MG? Having previously owned two Midgets there was really no other choice when I decided to buy a classic car. I had done plenty of work on the previous ones to keep them on the road and so was very familiar with the model. Working or Rered?: I am now rered having worked for Local Authories, United Ulies and Consultants as a Civil Engineer specialising in wastewater network design and maintenance. Single or partnered? Diane and I were married in August 1973 which is the same month my Midget was first registered. Hobbies, what floats your boat? I have been collecng old cameras for about 40 years and now have around 800. These consist of just over 600 Kodak cameras along with some sub-miniature and novelty cameras. I have twice been the NW regional chairman of the Photographic Collectors Club of Great Britain and those meengs also take place on Tuesday evening as does my badminton club! Any bucket list items? I would dearly love to own another Lambrea scooter like the one I had back in the 60s when I was one of the Chester Mods! 6 Meet the members! Name: Richard Hayes Age: 48 What MG(s) or classic(s) do you own? 1977 MGB Roadster owned since 2016, 1987 VW T25 camper van owned since 2006. How long have you had it/them? The MGB 2 ½ years and the VW camper 13 years.

  • CHAPTER-2 Charcutierie Introduction: Charcuterie (From Either the French Chair Cuite = Cooked Meat, Or the French Cuiseur De
    CHAPTER-2 Charcutierie Introduction: Charcuterie (from either the French chair cuite = cooked meat, or the French cuiseur de chair = cook of meat) is the branch of cooking devoted to prepared meat products such as sausage primarily from pork. The practice goes back to ancient times and can involve the chemical preservation of meats; it is also a means of using up various meat scraps. Hams, for instance, whether smoked, air-cured, salted, or treated by chemical means, are examples of charcuterie. The French word for a person who prepares charcuterie is charcutier , and that is generally translated into English as "pork butcher." This has led to the mistaken belief that charcuterie can only involve pork. The word refers to the products, particularly (but not limited to) pork specialties such as pâtés, roulades, galantines, crépinettes, etc., which are made and sold in a delicatessen-style shop, also called a charcuterie." SAUSAGE A simple definition of sausage would be ‘the coarse or finely comminuted (Comminuted means diced, ground, chopped, emulsified or otherwise reduced to minute particles by mechanical means) meat product prepared from one or more kind of meat or meat by-products, containing various amounts of water, usually seasoned and frequently cured .’ A sausage is a food usually made from ground meat , often pork , beef or veal , along with salt, spices and other flavouring and preserving agents filed into a casing traditionally made from intestine , but sometimes synthetic. Sausage making is a traditional food preservation technique. Sausages may be preserved by curing , drying (often in association with fermentation or culturing, which can contribute to preservation), smoking or freezing.

The famous frankfurter or hot dog, such a familiar part of the American diet, is only one of more than 300 varieties of sausages made in Germany. There are 2 types of sausages: large-sized sausages (Wiirste) and those which are small in diameter (Wiirstchen), which may be a foot long. They are grilled, fried, boiled or braised, they are eaten with bread or rolls, and they are served with such side dishes as sauerkraut or potato salad. A delightful German custom is the streetside sausage stand (lmbiBstube), where two or three different types of sausages crowd the grill from morning until late at night. They are served hot from the grill with mustard (Senf) and a small white roll (Brotchen), the sausage often being three times the length of the roll. It is usually served with a glass ~f beer. Train stations (Bahnhofe) will have several sausage stands, where people who are in a hurry, can eat and drink something without taking the time to be seated at a table. If you like hot dogs, you can't go wrong tasting almost any type of sausage. There are subtle taste differences between them, but they are not highly spiced or strongly flavored. 1,400 Types of Sausages Naturally, Germans do not like their bread dry.

  • Chapter 18 : Sausage the Casing
    CHAPTER 18 : SAUSAGE Sausage is any meat that has been comminuted and seasoned. Comminuted means diced, ground, chopped, emulsified or otherwise reduced to minute particles by mechanical means. A simple definition of sausage would be ‘the coarse or finely comminuted meat product prepared from one or more kind of meat or meat by-products, containing various amounts of water, usually seasoned and frequently cured .’ In simplest terms, sausage is ground meat that has been salted for preservation and seasoned to taste. Sausage is one of the oldest forms of charcuterie, and is made almost all over the world in some form or the other. Many sausage recipes and concepts have brought fame to cities and their people. Frankfurters from Frankfurt in Germany, Weiner from Vienna in Austria and Bologna from the town of Bologna in Italy. are all very famous. There are over 1200 varieties world wide Sausage consists of two parts: - the casing - the filling THE CASING Casings are of vital importance in sausage making. Their primary function is that of a holder for the meat mixture. They also have a major effect on the mouth feel (if edible) and appearance. The variety of casings available is broad. These include: natural, collagen, fibrous cellulose and protein lined fibrous cellulose. Some casings are edible and are meant to be eaten with the sausage. Other casings are non edible and are peeled away before eating. 1 NATURAL CASINGS: These are made from the intestines of animals such as hogs, pigs, wild boar, cattle and sheep. The intestine is a very long organ and is ideal for a casing of the sausage.
