    That looks pretty good, if I was being very picky the bottom rail would ideally be flush or inside the legs so you don't clout your ankles on it but that's less of an issue outside.

    Garden is a tip, that's the next job now the house is mostly sorted.

    Decent for a DIY effort.

    I am in the middle of building an outside kitchen at the moment, taking me ages. Doesn't help that it's always either pissing it down for 30+ degrees when I get in from work.

    Having moved from a house to an apartment, the thing I miss the least - and the most - is the garden. Perpetual struggle to keep it not looking like downtown Aleppo but when the sun is out it can't be beat.

    Your kitchen workstation thing looks nice, RL

    Dinner. Made some little lamb patties, flatbreads, tahini, roasted carrots with harissa, yoghurt, sumac and coriander. Very nice indeed.

    The can of the new cherry max is far too similar to the regular max can. I've been caught twice now.

    I can't speak to the Pepsi Max variety, but I always thought that gold coke shit was one of the most pointless drinks going. Just go with fizzy water if you don't want a coke that much.

    I have some of those cherry max cans in the fridge having been bought for a party or something. Absolutely abhorrent.

    Isn't gold coke just caffeine free? It still tastes like coke. Where as fizzy water tastes like the discharge of Igors latest victim.

    Isn't it the diet caffeine free one? Thus tasting like a 50/50 mix of diet coke (horrific) and water, or is that a different one?

    I can't remember who (maybe Sama, RIP) but somebody tried to tell me cherry Pepsi Max was some sort of life-changing drink of the Gods and it just turned out to be A.N.Other soft drink.

    It's grand, probably nicer than Dr. Pepper, but it does nothing for a dose of the drought like the normal one.

    I think it's lol that Scots use 'juice' but then I use 'pop' if I use a catch-all term at all which sounds like it's off the 60s so I can't really claim to be using an up to date term either.

    But that doesn't stop 'juice' being a silly word for it.

    'Ginger' being a catch-all fizzy drink term took me a while to get to grips with.

    I've never sounded more English than the day a jakey I worked with said she was going home to a 'bottle of wine' and in the interest of making conversation I asked whether she liked white or red and she looked at me like I was a fucking idiot and said "Bucky."

    That’s like the nordies too. Buckfast is the single biggest example of why they’re all more aligned with Scotland than us.

    I've never heard of Buckfast before. When Ian said Bucky, the only thing I could think of was Bucks Fizz Which seemed like an odd choice.

    I'm surprised you've never heard of it at all, if only as part of Scottish stereotypes.

    It's definitely been discussed on here a few times.

    I don't think I've heard anyone call it wine before. 'Tonic' is more common.

    I would say in my experience I've heard it as 'wine' more than just 'tonic' but maybe it depends which particular scabby bit you happen to be in.

    Either way, what I was talking about was to her 'table wine' apparently.

    Big fan, but get one of the basket ones. We have one with shelves / a rotisserie and it just lives in the cupboard.

    I have the one with the rotating paddle but I think I'd go back to the basket one if I was replacing it. Great bit of kit, it's like a more powerful mini oven that cooks everything quicker than the packet says. Not sure where Luca is getting the deep fat fryer comparison from at all, they don't do remotely the same thing in most cases.

    Sometimes, but they aren't. You couldn't cook fresh battered fish in an AirFrier and you couldn't reheat pizza in a deep fat frier (well, you could, but...).

    It's just a powerful fan oven.

    I doubt it, but it depends what you use the microwave for really. I doubt it would be able to cook the microwave meals in plastic containers without melting / warping them, but it's definitely replaced the microwave when it comes to rehearing most things.

    Or is there something specifically different about fish batter?

    I mean if you were to make the batter yourself. I imagine it would just drip through the basket and you'd barely end up with any on the fish. I could be wrong though, I've not actually tried.

    A quick Google for 'Airfrier battered fish" just gives loads of fish in breadcrumbs recipes, so I think I'm right on the batter not working.

    Reheating what I cooked last night. Pasta, say. Or is it just for manly dry items like meat and chips?

    Mostly dry stuff I'd say. Any form of sauce is just going to go dry and cause a mess.

    Obviously I can't speak from experience given I was asking the question but that looks like decent batter and is specifically doing it in an air fryer.

    It looks decent enough, but it's not proper fish and chip shop batter. You could do that in an oven too.

    The easiest way to look at an AirFrier is just as a small but powerful fan oven.

    I love my air fryer but I do wish it had a compartment for doing anything saucy. Chicken and fish are the standouts.

    I can barely eat dry food, so looks like the microwave survives. Sorry for doubting you, old pal.

    The one I have with the paddle can do wet meals. I’ve made casseroles in it before.
