First you cant cook a gammon joint in the fridge, you need to put it in the oven or in a pan covered in water. 

Cooking-wise (if going by oven) pre-heat the oven to 180° Celsius (or whatever the gas mark equivalent is) and then add some salt, pepper and herbs for between 90 and 120 mins*. Check after 90 mins by cutting it open and seeing if the juice inside is clear, if so its cooked if not stick it back in. 

Other ways exist but this is what i do and it cooks fine. My rule of cooking joints of meat or poultry is if you dont have a clue go with 180° Celsius (i have an electric oven) and just keep an eye on it.

 

*Depends on size of joint. I think its normally 20 mins per 1/2 lb + 20 mins but check to be sure.

There used to be a thread that was made right after the moderation sickness. I think it was deleted. It had a crazy long thread title.

I knew I had a screenshot!

I always have a pretty high number. Right now it’s at 39.

I love “is this thing on?” posts a-hard-days-night-john-1

Is Unread Post Sickness in the Zigtionary?

I'm like Necko only I'm a bassist ukulele guitar synthesizer kazoo penguin and also everyone. Or is everyone me? Now I'm a confused bassist ukulele guitar synthesizer kazoo penguin everyone who is definitely not @Joe.  This has been true for 2016 & 2017 Sig-Badge.png but I may have to get more specific in the future.

Yeah, I’m always at 47-48, no matter how I try to catch up. I really don’t trust that figure at all.

In other news…hey! I passed 5000 posts sometime today or yesterday! :D  A little under 1000 per year.

Love the shades, @Starr Shine? !

For the first six months I was on here mine was always at 50. No matter what… I guess I’m reading more lately!

I honestly don’t understand the unread posts thing. There are lots of old topics I’ve never visited, shouldn’t they show up there?

Congrats, @Von Bontee and @vonbontee!! apple01apple01

I had just added up your posts in my head yesterday and it was around 5000!

Those are just the “most recent” posts. 

Thanks for the congratulations, @Mr. Kite !

It never works properly for me – it seems to update correctly every time there is a moon landing.

Okay, I think I have caught up with the overnight deluge of new posts (even after HKL and I logged in here at around 3am to try and catch up). If I missed anything just flag me an @   :)

 I click “mark all topic read.” I hate having things like that. Like unread emails. Can’t leave even one unread message. I mean I will read topics that I’m interested in so it doesn’t really matter. And this forum is my homepage so the first thing I do when I open my browser is check the forum.

The BB is my homapage, too.

Otherwise it’d probably be Google and I can search using the URL bar, so I don’t really need Google there. Plus it’s probably my most visited site, so it just makes sense.

So that sounds a bit like rambling. Probably getting into PWT territory.
