    Is there something that Nick can't do? Tegelen, bricklaying, juggling with boulders, making Andrea Happy, making wine, building cold rooms, keeping animals, speak Cornish, Zipping in two to help others as well! And now making sausages! Wunderfull !Andrea, you have found a wizzard🪄!

    Ooo Nick in the kitchen is always funny! esp when he cleaned the bowl and said he got tips from his wife! Because Andrea never leaves a drip behind in a bowl, etc. But the prep etc and the obscene nonsence turned out some beautiful sausage! 😂❤❤ love you two! Looked forward to friday, and your video, to always cheer me up on a rough work week.

    Great video as always... a tip to get rid of the yellowing caused by turmeric and curry stains on plastic containers/utensils is to leave them out in the sun for a day... the ultra voilet light nutralises the discolouration... stay well until the next one...

    Hello Guys, nice job in the coldroom !
    Sausage is looking nice, pro tip ! hold the skin between you indexfinger and thumb. with a little pressure on the nozzle. than you have more control and it works faster. And for portioning the sausage press with 2 fingers in the sausage with 2 hands(so left and right together at the desired distance. and swing the sausage 2 times and continue untill the end. ( you dont need to tye a knot in the skins. And before preparing . soak the sausage in warm water for 5 minutes. then the skins won't burst.
    greetings from Sandra( Sandy)😂 and Raymond ( more sausage tips available )
    And use Ken with a dough hook or K wisk to make youre sausage dough. Hands is nice but your warming up the meat warm meat is nice , But not for this sausage 🤣🤣

I told them without Nick, I don't know...Luke would have hurt himself again. All, the whole bunch looked happy and a great time had by all. Saw the pics of the watch party. I'm in the US and couldn't see it, I'll wait on CZcams! But I did see all Sarah's footage, Ang dancing, and behind the scenes stuff! I watch all of you! Your living my dream!!! ✝️🙏🇺🇸🇬🇧🇵🇹❤⛵👣🍍🤗

    You can tie the knot in the beginning before you start stuffing, let the meat push the casing out and you just guide it. Looks good though.

    Olá, vocês fazem um bonito trabalho. Parabéns!! Será que poderiam colocar legendas em português nos vídeos para podermos assistir na televisão com legendas? Apenas o telefone celular e o computador oferecem a tradução automática em várias línguas. No Brasil são mais de 210 milhões de pessoas falando português. E afinal de contas vocês estão em Portugal. Seria muito interessante. Luke & Sara estão colocando legendas em várias línguas, vocês poderiam perguntar a eles como fazer. Obrigada pela atenção. E bom trabalho.
