HAMMERFEAST Part II - A new Dawn

Day two at Hammerfest.
Woke up with a not too bad hangover and feeling quite refreshed regardless of the fact that i got woken up at 3am to the sound of people shagging on the grass at the back of the chalet.
All I can say is "GET SOME CLASS" and stop interupting my Pepper Kennan dreams.
Anyhoo, I made a batch of Rocky Road at home to take down and hand out to people to convince them to take my flyers. Bribery works by the way.


Not much to look at but tastes great


He liked the Rocky Road too much


Little parcels of Joy
When we eventually left the Chalet we headed down to see some bands.
We were walking through the crowd and I looked over at the stage and it was like a magnet had just pulled me over. It was a band called Svart Crown http://www.myspace.com/svartcrown

The singer was a fine specimen of manly Metalness.


Shwing!
( For the record, I don't just listen to bands because I fancy someone. I like Death Before Dishonour for God's sake).
I looked over at Britta and we both had a little glint in our eyes.
We stayed to watch to watch to whole set. I circle pitted on my own which basically involved me spinning around in a circle with my arms up in the air and shouting "wheeeeeeeeeeee".
I also realised at this point that I was the only person in the building not wearing BLACK. Oops.
Svart Crown did lots of windmill hairing. I love watching people doing that.

After watching a few more bands and mulling around for a bit we retired back to the chalet for some pre drink food.
Then we broke out "The HORN".


Toot.

I love my Viking Drinking horn. I even drink tea out of it.
I shall not discuss what was in the "HORN" but let's just say Glaswegians call it "Dancin Juice".
So as you can imagine the second night was a bit more messy. Here is evidence of said messyness.




We like pulling the Horns


More Horns


Angry horns


Horns, horns, horns


I have no idea what happened here

Lesley thinks Arlene is a giant ice cream


I should probably ask permission before I put photos up of my friends????
My sister knows the Drummer of Attica Rage from Glasgow who we were there to support.
Check em out.

Oh yeah, here's my recipe for Rocky Road. I gibber on so much that sometimes I forget what I'm supposed to be doing

Rocky Road for the Metal Masses

Makes a lot

Ingredients

500g good quality milk chocolate
100g crushed biscuits. I used hob nobs
100g mini marshmallows
200g dried morello cherries or glace cherries
100g toasted pecans chopped roughly
Sprinkles for the top

Put your crushed biscuits, marshmallows, cherries and pecans into a big mixing bowl.
Melt the chocolate in a heat proof bowl over a pan of simmering water making sure the water does not touch the bottom of the bowl.
Alternatively, melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl in the microwave on medium at 1 minute at a time then stirring,  making sure not to burn the chocolate.
Pour the melted chocolate into the bowl with the other ingredients and mix well.
Pour into a foil or greased container. Flatten out so it's all even. Sprinkle your sprinkles on top and put in the fridge for a few hours to set.
Cut into bite sized chunks and serve.
