If you did want to do the paella I could bring the ingredients with me on Sat in my cool box as i wont be using it for anything else ... just a thought ... (cant afford to fund the food though im afraid at the moment :cry: )

Ok - I'll let this run for a couple of days - who would eat some paella - it would have rabbit, chicken, chorizo, prawns, mussels, squid and some unspecified white fish, plus a variety of dead vegetables. I can adjust the size to suit and will do one if there's enough interest.

So - how many am I cooking for...... :wink:

Another paella eater here =D> Plenty of wriggly bits as well.

I am arriving on the Friday so can bring along any bits needed earlier than the Saturday. Only an hour away, plus I have a spare cool box in working order with just a broken handle which will be fine for anything fishy.

Right then, paella it is. Make sure you've got your eating boots on, there will be plenty and I don't want to be eating paella for lunch for the next fortnight :wink:

Well I'm back from phase 1 of the paella shop. Sad to report that my preferred supplier of ready-killed rabbit was out of stock. BUT - they did have a substitute range of timely-deceased pheasant, partridge, mallard, venison and pigeon. So I got a variety pack - scrub that, two variety packs - watch out for the crunchy lead bits in Saturday night's tea :lol: :lol:

Phase 2 tomorrow, for the boring stuff like rice, onions, squids etc :wink: :D

Sounds just my sort of Paella. Chicken gizzards are supposed to be authentically Spanish, but having tasted one with them in Spain, a step too far :-&
