Get to Emporio Alanjohn's early to avoid disappointment - the emergency services are queue jumping by putting their sirens on to get there first. Is it true that celebrity chef F. Gannet Ramsay is doing the Fank catering next year?

Any chance you happened to have the old box brownie out calumannabel ?
pondhead from Mull
Sorry pondhead the people in the queue all ticked the X box requesting no publicity. Would you like the world to know you ate gannet?

Yes, I must admit that pictures of guga in the flesh would have enhanced the report. Was there so much demand that an impromptu auction had to be undertaken? Was Arnish successful in his/her bids? Did the gugas end up down the gullets of locals or were they outbid by incomers?

Have I not told you? How many times? DO NOT KEEP BROWNIES IN BOXES. It makes Pow wows almost impossible, and I think it may be slightly illegal, but only slighty mind. And while I'm on, who is this Fran Chise? WHO IS SHE? WHO IS SHE? WHO IS SHE???

As Julia Child said to .... : "one bite at a time (with lots of butter, I presume)"

Best eaten with Madras sauce while blindfold.

I just loved the rejoinder of the Semi retired guga hunter from Lewis. Wonderfully funny and pithy.

I thought Brownies were kept in packs.........along with brown owls, toadstools and charred suasages with pink middles.

Glasgow Islander from Glasgow
Did anyone see Gordon Ramsey's F Word last night? He was on Lewis cooking Guga! NOT KIDDING!!!
Sunny from Arran
Guga juice rubbed firmly into the skin does wonders for keeping the midges at bay, though the treatment may also be partially responsible for the high number of elderly male bachelors on Lewis

i love the smell of Guga in the morning.
Cliffclimber from Harris
Was it the Everly Brothers who sang: Guga in the morning, guga in the evening, guga at supper time ....?
mjc from NM,USA
No it wasn't the Everly Brothers it was a very second rate ventriloquist.
