Scampi and salad.

 Is your scampi made with scampi or shrimp like American scampi?

I dont think I've ever had real scampi. 

My dad made Barley Wine once and despite it's name, it's actually ale.

Strongest ale he's ever drank he said.

He was actually legless, I mean he was still compos-mentis but couldn't walk.

It was most amusing.

 Whats the ABV (alcohol by volume) on those IPAs 

 

6 pints would give me a nice buzz on many of our stronger IPAs, let alone a double IPA..

 

One time i had about 4 Belgian Triples not really knowing what i was drinking. Those will sneak up on ya..

 5.5 I only drank 4 of them.

Pints.

 Gotcha. I have a local brewery that has one pushing 8%..

Those are pretty tasty, but it doesn't take too many of them.

 Those are generally stonger that Cabernet.

I'm not a fan of the taste at all. I like my beer hoppy and that stuff is like cough syrup.

I love a sausage supper but only now and again.

 So you took some sausage last night? 

 

Did it show up shrouded in a kilt? 😉

 No Madders, just a paper poke and it was delicious

You do see lots of whisky at new year wearing wee kilts though.

They get tooken when folk go first footing.

Chicken nuggets and potato slices.

Harry Ramsden potato slices, very tasty that range.

 We're going to have to work on your dietary choices..😉

 My diet has always been dodgy Madders.

I don't eat fried food though or fruit but I do eat lots of tomatoes and carrots and I'm growing my own cucumbers this year.

What's this little lot then!

 Something I have on average about twice a year.

You are really desperate for my attention aren't you.

 The problem with fried food is the kind of oil they use. And often the batter (like fish and chips). 

 

The biggest problem we have is processed food. Thats probably the biggest source of our problems. It also tastes good and is sort of addictive..

 What's the best kind of oil, Madders?

My dad loves French-toast and uses vegetable oil, would something else be better.

I'm trying to get him to improve his diet after a recent health scare.

I've started making my own soup in the slow cooker, it's a good investment the slow cooker.
