Thought of the Week with Handsome ‘Dave’ Rocker

Yo yo yo, got another snippet of wise info for ya’ll.

After a crazy bank holiday weekend in our fantastic sub city, and a hell of a lot of meeting new people………you know who you are guys, I’m just saying hello. Its that easy! I fell back in love with a little treat that for a while I ignored. I’ve got three little words for you, CHEESE ON TOAST! If I was a real doctor this would be the cure for everything unless you were dairy intolerant, it instantly made me feel better and repeatedly set me up for another days boozing.

But it doesn’t stop at just cheese I like a bit of marmite or even a bit of tomato puree. It’s feedback time, I want to here all of you’re favourite cheese on toast combo’s.

That’s it for another week thanks for all the feedback, peace out. Handsome…

  1. I like to go posh and hit it up with some ciabatta action. Mature cheddar (of course), crack pepper, get the chilli shaker on it (cheers Pizza Hut), some sea salt and grill it till the cheese starts to crisp. Don’t get to eager, those extra seconds make all the difference.

    Right. I’m off for cheese on toast now……

  2. Herbs de Provance is damn good. Worcestershire sauce applied to the bread before the cheese goes on top is a good look too.

  3. I’m remembering Tristan’s microwaved cheese on crackers…

  4. This may seem a bit outlandish, but bear with me…….

    Cheese on toast (mature as standard) with a cheeky thin layer of patak’s lime pickle underneath……

    It works in ways that I shall never understand….

    (Must be Patak’s though, a cheaper substitute will not work)

    BLAM!

PRIMARY – Extended & Improved

We have some great news about our PRIMARY phonography exhibition (find out all the details here) that we can now announce:

- The deadline for submissions has now been extended to Sunday 4th March. We have had some incredible submissions but want to set aside more time to make the exhibition something really special.

- The competition is now open to up to 10 submissions from each individual. With the ability to capture many photos on your phone over the next two months we we want you to not feel restricted to just three. The same rules apply about the photos conforming to compositions using the primary colours though. If you have already submitted feel free to send more photos over as and when you please.

- The exhibition will be hosted by Albert Road’s own Bonzo Studio who are also partnering up with us in the creation of the exhibition space. More news on this soon!

- Finally, we will be running a competition as part of the exhibition where the best three photos submitted will win some incredible prizes. We will be announcing the prizes available very soon but got to say, these will be the best prize haul we have ever offered.

- We will be putting together a poster for the exhibition that will be on sale on the opening night. The poster will feature some of the best submissions and all profits from the sales will go to a local charity (details to follow soon). Due to this we need to say that any photos submitted to PRIMARY will involve you giving us permission to use them for commercial purposes, if you do not want your photo used in this way simply let us know via email.

Well, that is it for now! We really hope to drum up as much coverage locally for PRIMARY in the next couple of months so if you could Facebook/Tweet/+1 about the exhibition we would really appreciate it. We would love this exhibition to be a real reflection of the whole population of Portsmouth with everyone taking part and feeling involved.

It’s going to be a Strong Movember – Closed at £725

Righto chaps, it’s time to clean shave your boat race and get that mighty moustache on the grow in support of Movember for The Prostate Cancer Charity and the Institute of Cancer Research. For 30 days of November you can help support and raise awareness through selflessly parading your top lip for charity.

You can sign up yourself, as I’m sure many of you already have, or you can join the Strong Island team and seek out sponsorship as a team. Through the Strong Island Movember page you can ask people to join the group, make donations, upload photos and post updates via the MoSpace page, Facebook and Twitter.

Head over to www.mobro.co/StrongIsland if you would like to get involved and grow a Strong Moustache to help raise awareness, or simply head over to www.uk.movember.com and sign up to personally raise money.

The funds raised in the UK support the number one and two male specific cancers – prostate and testicular cancer. The funds raised are directed to programmes run directly by Movember and our men’s health partners, The Prostate Cancer Charity and the Institute of Cancer Research. Together, these channels work together to ensure that Movember funds are supporting a broad range of innovative, world-class programmes in line with our strategic goals in the areas of awareness and education, survivorship and research.
