Re-creating I.S.D.T. Incentives for the 'Pecker'..1970 Eastern Block Style..

 

 Greetings blog viewers....A.C. here, your living Vintafake fountain. Aye, I've held back on claiming that I am a fountain splurting interesting techi and hipster facts...just happy to be splurting anything, and why not?

So, what's buzzin' in the world? What's gonna set this blog into the universal digital window of time and place?

tIME??? Hang oN..coR BliMey mi' cap Lock iS malfunctionINg.......CTR. ALT. REBOOT..

Crikey, that was close...Nearly got transfered to TikTock!. Back on line and in control - Time? Date? Year?  It's soon going to be Charlie's Coronation, get thi' buntin out Posh! And bake a quiche for the Big Lunch. Find official Buck House recipe as an addendum. (Note how I didn't mention Skirtlands Crankie in the time datestamp, yes, she's the one that should be heading straight for the clink due to a dubious motorhome purchase. Throw tha' key away on the celtic hen!)

Never heed jock!! Lit's git back ta' the important dram. International Six Day Trials late 60's early 70's. How come the guys from the Eastern Block were winning more often than thi' chaps from Blighty? Hey, I'll tell ya why. Cos they got treats along thi route. Aye, proper had an secret edge to revive tha'pecker inst' muddy woods and slippy tracks. Hang on...Hang on Alb what's tha saying? 

Right, let me explain. If you were away from ya homely comforts for the week. Whatever they may be.....red hot chicks if ya in ya 20's....maybe a steak 'n' kidney puddin' if ya in ya 50's.(Wi' suet crust) Not likely riding in ya' 60's but in case it would be a few malty beers (none of ya new wave citrus aussie bollocks). ok? so, how did a Czech motorcyclist's pecker get tittilated? Money buys it! Surely didn't expect tha' local wenches ta be throwin' tha' sen in front of the bikes did ya without reward?

But gettin' the money through scrutineering? Surely not allowed to be carrying favour vouchers? That's why on 1970's CZ motorsickles the engine side casing is cavinous. For storing tha' coinage!!!!!..Loose change talks!!!!

Your Uncle Albert is going to recreate the very money hidey hole in readiness for the Blauwe Muis attack on the T.E.T. Why should I miss out?. Decided to carry the very amount that did the job in 1973 I've got missen a 5 Korun of the correct minted year to match Blauwe Muis. Let's get to work and make sure František Šťastný our works rider has all the help he can get......

First. I removed the auto oil lube pump. Wasn't going to use it anyway as I'll be burning the old racing favourite Castrol R as a pre-mix. The hole wherst the pump used to be needs blocking off. Using aluminium sourced from government stock a suitable plate was turned on the lathe. Crikey!! Blinded by the bling and it's only half done.

How much should we allow our man to carry in loose change? Good question! To much money may result in a very tiring night with 'Plácnutí Lola-Lola in the Navstevnicke centrum Srni, best just allow enough for a quick 'Hows ya Father' and let our man Frantisek get straight back to the Official Park Ferme and make sure no-one sabotages his needle jet. 

Think 5 Korun is plenty. In 2023 a Korun is worth £0.38p. That's enough surely? 

Old skool gasket...made from the outer wrapping of last Fridays ready meal. Reet grand it wa' too.

Ssshhh secret.

 So, let's celebrate with our new king...poor lad's waiting long enough for a go...Coronation Time!!

Blaaaah..Blaaaah...get them Heralds a trumpeting... and woe betide yonder choir boys if theres any muckin' abart wi' yellow ballons seen near the pulpit!!!

Might be plenty of 'Trumping' though, tha' Coronation Quiche has a broad bean filling...Phhufff!

'The Royal Quiche' below for those that wanna risk it!!!   Phhufff!....Blimey, Phhufff!!! Whoops!

 Ingredients 

Pastry

• 125g plain flour
• Pinch of salt
• 25g cold butter, diced
• 25g lard
• 2 tablespoons milk
• Or 1 x 250g block of ready-made shortcrust pastry

 Filling

• 125ml milk
• 175ml double cream
• 2 medium eggs
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon, 
• Salt and pepper
• 100g grated cheddar cheese,
• 180g cooked spinach, lightly chopped
• 60g cooked broad beans or soya beans

 Method

1. To make the pastry…
   1. Sieve the flour and salt into a bowl; add the fats and rub the mixture together using your finger tips until you get a sandy, breadcrumb like texture.
   2. Add the milk a little at a time and bring the ingredients together into a dough.
   3. Cover and allow to rest in the fridge for 30-45 minutes
2. Lightly flour the work surface and roll out the pastry to a circle a little larger than the top of the tin and approximately 5mm thick.
3. Line the tin with the pastry, taking care not to have any holes or the mixture could leak. Cover and rest for a further 30 minutes in the fridge.
4. Preheat the oven to 190°C.
5. Line the pastry case with greaseproof paper, add baking beans and bake blind for 15 minutes, before removing the greaseproof paper and baking beans.
6. Reduce the oven temperature to 160°C.
7. Beat together the milk, cream, eggs, herbs and seasoning.
8. Scatter 1/2 of the grated cheese in the blind-baked base, top with the chopped spinach and beans and herbs, then pour over the liquid mixture.
9. If required gently give the mixture a delicate stir to ensure the filling is evenly dispersed but be careful not to damage the pastry case.
10. Sprinkle over the remaining cheese. Place into the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until set and lightly golden.

Aye, Posh!!! pour me a royal flagon of the Celebratory Brew Dog...Cheers Peeps, Bless the King and all who sail in him!
