An Easy Way To Poach An Egg Perfectly EVERY Time
I do like a good poached egg on occasions but like many, I have found it difficult to master the art of the perfect poached egg. I have tried the cheffy way of cracking the eggs in a pan of boiling water, using many different recommended ways, some saying just have about an inch of water in the pan, just simmering. Some say half fill a pan, get the water boiling, swill around whilst the egg is in the water and add vinegar. I have tried all these way, but each time have ended up with a complete mess floating around the pan, and totally inedible.
I have tried using a microwaveable egg poacher, which is okay but the whites are rock hard and you can never get the yolks to be runny, and they just like a fried egg but neater.
There are many egg poachers on the market including individual silicone ones, and although I have not tried them have read reviews and the majority of people who have purchased them say are a complete waste of time and money and do not work.

Donkey Quiz Night For Humans
The annual quiz night was held at the DAT Ivybridge Donkey Centre on Saturday 9th February 2013 and needless to say Steve, myself and two friends (close neighbours of ours) decided to partake. We do usually attend the quiz but on the very first one our table actually came second, which was an absolute miracle, and I can only put it down to our friends that made up the team (well they are very clever!!!).

Donkey Walking in Ivybridge
I went down to the DAT Centre in Ivybridge on Monday 21st January 2013, where I am a volunteer, which was my first stint since Christmas. It was a very cold day and there was still remnants of the snow and ice that we had experienced over the last few days.We had one school in during the morning, with a second booked in, but they cancelled so we had a little spare time until the next school came after lunch.
