[i42] Foodage!

[Wol]

I figure as its early days and there is no thread for this for i42

Then i'll make one

, ill ask, is there somewhere at the racecourse that one could bring some bread, butter, ham and a knife - OMFG A KNIFE OH NOES!!!!!!!!! - to make some sandwidges at the event, or are we expected to push our keyboards back and do it on the spot?

As far as I know there arent any kitchen like areas. Theres the small "cooking" area with microwaves by the tuck shop, but thats not really food preparation!

you may as well just do it at your desks. To be honest, I didnt have to push my keyboard back to receive the large amount of food at i41, so you should be able to make something up fiarly easily without faffing around with space!

i brought a plate and knife and stuff to i40, had a loaf of bread and got a tub of filler when we went to the big sainsburys which is 5 mins down the road, worked rather well. there is plenty of space if you have a TFT as the desks are the same from the CRT days so you have a fair bit more depth to play with now

 

[Ki!ler-Mk1]

Exellent news.

 

[Wol]

Omnomnom.

So what sugary delights are people bringing then?

 

[Ki!ler-Mk1]

I wasnt sure what i was going to do, i could pretend to be normal, and bring nothing, or i could bring my favourites, gobbles. Or go ott and bring a big cache of These.

I figured the easiest thing to do for my own breakfast(and before sleep snax) would be 72 weetabix and 3 bowls, buy some milk in newbury, and ofcourse like ironfist, a knife and chopping board.

EDIT: AND spoons.

Where will we be able to get water at i42? When at my pc i sometimes drink a lot(Like 1 litre every 2 hours or something).

Multiplay sell water in bottles at £1 for a 500ml bottle

Supermarkets.

Where did you supose i was going to get the milk from, a dairy?


I cant see though that anyone would complain if we brought in our own food (Hidden of course bwahahhaa).

Food & drink don't have to be hidden, just alcomofrol afaik.

I can go to an ASDA on the way up and get a bulk load of the 17p bottles of table water if people aren't mineral water snobs.

Edit: or I can go to the Cash & Carry and get 1.5l bottles of mineral water for 16p

Eating is very much encouraged

Are people going to be baking anything? I'm debating whether to make any of my diabetes cake again. That sticky toffee pudding I had at i41 was..... so rich I nearly passed out! heh

Having a cool bag is handy though, for a day or so at least, until it warms up.... hm.

Maybe we can force feed fruit to bloke.

I dont know what either of these are

Table water is basically normal tap water, the kind you drink at the table with dinner etc.

Cash&Carry is a chain of shops which sell cheap stuff in bulk.

 

[bacon]

Table water is what supermarkets call tap water when the put it in a bottle.

Cash & Carry is buying from a wholesale warehouse usually in bulk and at reduced cost compared to supermarkets.

Edit: Took too long composing the reply and got beaten to it :|

 

[Ki!ler-Mk1]

Thanks both.

I will be making some bits, however as I'm going to still be attempting to be healthy there will be less as I'm fucked if I'm making loads of stuff I'm not eating .

I'm working on chocolate beer muffins so watch this space.

Otherwise might make a spiced apple and cinnamon loaf.

No part of those two sentences i didnt like.

I was toying with the idea of just making a whole lasagna and shoving it in a cool bag for eats when I got there. Though with no fridge i may need help eating it...

As for delectable cakes i may ask the oracle (my mother who is a caterer) to suggest cakes that are easily transportable and also primarily delicious.
