Come Dine With Me.
 
Does anyone else watch this programme on Channel 4 on Thursday evenings, from where it's been moved from an afternoon slot?

Basically a group of strangers take turns to entertain and cook for each other, and award marks at the end to decide on a winner. The guy who does the voiceover is hilarious.

I did ponder whether we should actually have an Accy Web version, but on second thoughts it sounds like way too much trouble.

Instead I thought we could have a virtual version.

Come up with a three course menu, and any other details that you might like to provide.

I'll invite you to my house first.

Menu.

Onion soup with a Gruyère crust.

Kedgeree, served with a wilted spinach salad.

Cheeses and fruit.


It might be a very simple menu, but it could all be prepared in advance, as being nosey I hate being stuck in the kitchen, and not joining in the conversation.

You'd have a plentiful supply of whatever drinks you wanted, and be hopefully entertained by tales of the daft things I've done in my life, such as the Holland Park dwarf in a drawer, and the Glaswegian wheeled woman stories...if you haven't heard them before.

I'd try my very best to make sure you had a fun and entertaining evening, and I hoped you didn't discover anything too shocking whilst you were rooting around upstairs whilst I was decorating the kedgeree with the boiled eggs.

Thanks very much for your company.:D

Well I'll happily have you all over to my virtual home.

My first course will be

Red onion tartlets with goats cheese
A twist on the traditional roast turkey meal with all the trimmings
Cheesecake with strawberries

But before everyone arrives I'll just need to order a skip to remove all the rubbish from our bedrooms and the garage so that people don't find it a health and safety risk.

I'd entertain everyone with my old 1980's CDs and a game of scrabble - in which I would probably endearvour to lose so that someone else stood a chance.

Your all more than welcome into my virtual abode,where i shall treat you to.....

Vol au vents with pink salmon and cucumber
Vol au vents with leek and wild mushroom

Slow roasted lamb with mediterranean veg (peppers,auburgine,onions and thick courgette slices) with mint and rosemary sauce.

Strawberry angel delight with pink sprinkles

and iced pink doughnuts with frothy coffee to finish.

My evening entertainment would be hula dancers and me encouraging everyone to spill the beans about their most embarrassing moments.....as well as telling my own.
