Fran's Greatest Five


Powerslave


Ahhhh (enough H?) lists! Everyone loves a list! They are never ending: "The Best Guitarist", "Greatest Frontman" "Hottest Sauces" and my personal fave "Sexiest Female Rockstar" (its the Vixen guitarist and Mia Klose by the way). Lists are fun, they can provoke a lot of thought, make people revaluate previous ideas and cause endless pub debates, even brawls if the ale has flowed freely enough (Mmm, free ale). In short, lists are f**king ACE.
And after LOTS of humming and ahhing, sifting through my huge metal record collection and doing a Pagan wardance waving goose giblets in the air in hope of some Godly inspiration, ive finally (after washing giblet blood off) come to my top five albums of all time. Cool huh?


1. AC/DC ~ Back In Black

2. Guns n' Roses ~ Appetite For Destruction

3. David Bowie ~ Ziggy Stardust

4. Iron Maiden ~ Powerslave

5. Slayer ~ South Of Heaven

Piranha Salad

Awesome salad

Fancy a healthier meal to work off all that Christmas goose? (Please don't say you had turkey...yuck!) Then why not go for another METAL MEAL OF THE MOTORHEAD GODS and rustle up a PIRANHA SALAD?Yeah you read it right, piranha. Okay you might need a trip to the Amazon but look at it! I'm sure it would be worth it *Devil Horns* Simply whack a few Pygocentrus nattereri (Ooh fancy!) under a grill for a few light sessions, garnish and serve with lettuce, tomato and other veggie type shite. Apparently its a very popular dish in the jungles and these folk have lived unmolested by technology for centuries so how wrong can it be? By the holy garters of Lita Ford, I would certainly get that bad boy down my ever hungry gullet. Admit it! It looks delicious.

Sweet Chili Duck Legs

Sweet Chili Duck Legs £2.99 from Aldi. A choice of 2 other sauces are available

There is a lot of snobbery aimed at German supermarkets Aldi and Lidl but you know what? Its foolish because they sell some good food if you catch them on a good day (which as more and more are turning to them is quick becoming every day). Superman would shop at these places. Batman too regardless of his billionaire status. And why the f**k not? These stores sell some darned tasty grub. Hell I don't need to go via Budget Alley but frog's legs in gravy! Everything, and I do mean everything comes down to taste. Laverbread, what Richard Burton once described as the "Welsh caviar" begins life in rockpools, which is hardly the desired home of any self respecting gentleman, and yet BOOM! Greatest. Welsh. Actor. Ever. Recommends it.
So cut the phoney chitter chatter and get yer asses down to Aldi and nab yourself some fine tasting treats. Duck is duck so what the f**k? Get it on the dish, it tastes delish!

Be warned: Do not cook in microwave for 18 minutes. I found it way too tough. 14 minutes would have done ace.
And two, when it says "thick" think toffee apple consistency. Its sweet too but hell, if it worked (and worked well) for someone who doesn't usually go for sweet food, then I can 99% say you will enjoy these legs.

Check my video out for a more 'in depth' description. Yeah the quality isn't that great but I might make this a trademark *winks* Enjoy!
