      1. it is actually impossible to use a wok in a traditional Western style kitchen heated to a sufficient temperature to obtain huòqì (镬气) without coating a 1 metre radius in condensed grease

      As this translates as “gas/air from round cooking pot” but also means the “spirit of a wok” its hardly surprising this happens as all that oil has to go somewhere (but now I will have to clean it up later :yakk:)

      2. the workaround is of course to use a cooker extractor hood and open the window and they aren’t that expensive these days (£70 from Screwfix) but I can’t wire this in myself because of the fucking part P regs where i have to do a exam to prove I can do safely some of what I’ve been doing for the last 20 fucking years..:you_crazy

      3. this is why oriental people cook outside, even in modernised countries like Malaysia. However British weather makes this difficult (I am working with one of my mates to see if there is a solution to this to get the “best of both cultures”). He even has the “food stealing jungle cat” that will test the security of any food storage methods :laugh_at:

          Virgin Media! Yes, you are cheap but your customer service is appalling. If I were half as shit at my job as your call centre staff I would have been sacked long ago! Sort it out!! *breath*

                      Usually works when I lose my mobile.
                      Then again, I usually just leave it stupid places like the bathroom … and say I’ve lost it ’cause I cba walking across the hall to find it…

                          Tried that but it ain’t in my house. I’m sitting here waiting for my cousin to pick me up and he should of been here an hour ago. He usually rings me to wake me up so he probably thinks i’m still asleep. i’ve been stood outside for the last hour waiting for him, Oh how my rage is rising! :head_bang

                                                      Haha, aye, I got a mobile around the age of 12 though .. Before that, all my friends lived close to me, so if I wanted to talk to them, I’d just go round to their house. Idk what I’d do now though, most of the mates I have live ages away from my flat .. And I don’t have a car anymore,so it’s awful haha.
