Aw Errol – you were such a softy really. Are you on a BOAT with that cat?! I’m recovering from a late night DJing job at probably the nicest wedding we have ever played at. The bride was so HAPPY. I’ve been to so many weddings lately where the bride just doesn’t seem to be [...]

Tallulah Bankhead’s French 75s
“If I had to live my life again, I’d make the same mistakes, only sooner.” Last night saw extreme Silver Screen Supperage in action. Dinner al fresco which began with Tallulah’s favourite tipple the French 75. Followed by Adolph Menjou’s Spiced Venetian Cheese hors d’oevres, Errol Flynn’s Baked Fish Havanaise and Joan Blondell’s Peach and [...]
Errol Flynn’s Baked Leg of Lamb
“Women won’t let me stay single and I won’t let me stay married.” Luckily Jack is nothing like Errol – he and Ginger were hitched on Saturday and that one is going to LAST. Those two were made for each other and now it’s official. We knew that after the glorious and loved up wedding [...]
Errol Flynn’s Leg of Lamb
“The public has always expected me to be a playboy, and a decent chap never lets his public down.” I am beginning to think that Errol was quite a cook. His Leg of Lamb absolutely rocked. It was the cup of coffee with cream and sugar for basting that intrigued my supper guests. Ginger’s beau [...]
Errol’s Fish Dish Again

Errol Flynn’s Tomato Fest
“The public has always expected me to be a playboy, and a decent chap never lets his public down.” Last night was Flynn Night on the boat. Radio 2’s excellent “Putting on the Style” was all about the swashbuckling “man’s man” so I cooked up some of his Devilled Tomatoes and accompanied them with his [...]
Errol Flynn’s Baked Fish Havanaise
“It isn’t what they say about you, it’s what they whisper.” Mm. That was GOOD and DID cure my malaise for a few minutes. Easy to prepare, looked great on the plate and had all the cats on the island trotting up the ladder and poking their heads through the door to see what was [...]
Havanaise to Treat Malaise
Suffering from a bad case of malaise at the moment. Have been wandering listlessly around Richmond trying to cheer myself up with small purchases – several hair clips and two plectrums in the shape of skulls – to no avail. Am going to attempt Errol Flynn’s “Baked Fish Havanaise” tonight to see if it makes [...]
