350 Vampires found dead in the NW

I never want to see, smell, taste, or even talk about garlic ever again. I made a garlic leg of lamb yesterday and I must have screwed it up. I think I have OD'ed on garlic.
Driving to work this a.m. , within a twenty mile radius, there were vampires dropping like flies, leaping out of coffins and surrendering to the nearest priest

Was that the recipe I said I got off my brother: loads of cloves inserted into the joint?

Did they caramelise?

[EternalOptimist]

Did they explode in the Approved Buffy The Vampire Slayer dusty fashion or did they liquify in the rather more OTT "TrueBlood" way?

No, they stayed pretty recognisable really. I obviously screwed up somehow,

It doesnt help that I used the last of the lamb for my work butts, and I am sitting here trying desperately not to burp.

yep, it's all your brothers fault

I stuck three quarters of a bulb between the skin and the flesh. Roasted the joint for 100 mins,180, wrapped in foil.

Caremalise, my @rse. Stenchalised more like

Speak with French accent.

Then no one will notice.

This is no laughing matter.
35 years drinking ten pints a night, I never threw up once. Dodgy kebabs, p1ss drinking competitions, sh@gging fat Maria and the black hole of Calcutta, and muffing hairy Mary.
I never chucked up.

But this morning..Jeez my hands are shaking

Good job you didn't do a handful of bulbs, like he did.

No skin, slits made in flesh, clove inserted but still visible. I think that last bit might be important.

Mind you, I do like garlic. I had garlic soup once - it's like potato soup. I ponged for a week. Not just my breath, me. It was as if the pong was coming out of my pores.

Lovely.

Anyway, tell your colleagues yesterday was St Nicholas's Day and that it is traditional to eat garlic on his day to keep the, umm, let's see, keep the trolls away. Or you were celebrating Spain's Constitution Day.

[EternalOptimist]

It does.

Look on the bright side, it's allegedly good for the heart.

Or something.

my stomache churns.

I spent a few hours looking at boobies over the weekend, together with the garlic I reckon I have added ten years to my lifespan.

I think I enjoyed the boobies more than the garlic

Once cooked a chicken with 75 cloves of garlic.
