Was thinking about Wizard earlier - the elderberries are coming in and I'm still shovelling sheep poo into dolly cases like he told me to! Anyway, its dawned on me that it must be a year since we lost our lovely Wizard - I still miss him here, I never had the pleasure of meeting him in person as I know several of you did, but what he taught me as a brand new smallholder still lives on here at Baaath Time towers - raising a glass of plum wine to you Wiz wherever you are :bouquet:

Hear hear. I can't remember who it was said they'd get his recipes together in a book, but haven't heard lately. Does anyone know if that is still a goer? I copied a lot of them, an some of his sayings onto a Word document if it would help?

The lady who was doing it is a friend of mine on FB, she's recently moved house so been weighed under with boxes not to mention the children off from school..I'll drop her a line and see what the go is with the book :)

Funny, I was thinking about Wizard yesterday :)
-
Me too, he just pops into my head every now and then.
Hope you're having a good time up there George ;) :bouquet:

A good time???? I'll bet he's running the show! ;D

He was remembered yesterday on RC. On there he was known as Georgee.

He used to make my mouth water with his discriptions of food and I always read his posts as if he spoke in a soft gentle country voice.....nice he was able to touch so many people with his words of wisdom!
-
yes, I was also thinking of him the other day, looking at my sorrell. He gave me the recipe for sorrell soup and I also wondered about the book. :&>
-
Yes, he is sadly missed on here for his words of wisdom, and he was always willing to send people things if he had what they wanted ....... I was off line just for quite a while and thought maybe I had missed the recipe book, so pleased that I haven't!!
-
im also glad i havnt missed the book, quiet often wonder how the book was going, All the best Wizard :bouquet:
-
Just thought of him today; then remembered the book. Did a quick search and hay presto, we all seemed to have more or less thought at the same time ish. Wreckon its as already mentioned, natures bounty at the ready. Glad he's still thought of, such a nice chap.

I got this far in copying and pasting recipes and quotes into a word document - will it help anyone get a book started? I can't remember who was going to do it :-[
-

-
I too have been away from TAS and wondered if The Wizard Book was ready
-
As I said, I can't remember who was doing it. I could get a good quote for printing from a friend if we want hard copies but otherwise I could do a pdf version if others could choose a recipe and add some comments and maybe a photo and email to me.- but happy to leave it to someone else if they want to do it.
