I popped into the Tea Shoppe earlier, but have never been there before so didn't like to put my two penn'worth in.

But to answer your question. A roll-mop is a filletted, pickled herring!! It is a flat piece of herring, rolled up with onion slices inside, held together with a cocktail stick and pickled in either sweet or pickling vinegar.

Very healthy, but not to everyone's taste.

Us Grannies know a bit about preserving and picklin'

Congratulations on the impending baby, by the way.

Sorry, have cluttered up your space for long enough.

Take care, Universal Granny

Thanx for that....erm....useful info, although I'm sure I'll never eat one if offered
I'm off most foods at the mo, although I have just shared a prawn & pasta salad with my daughter

Thankyou for your congratulations, & believe me it can't come soon enough, I suffer with terrible morning sickness & have to usually eat at night, hence the salad scoffing

As for clutering up my space, I don't think it could get much more cluttered, so one more thread will make no difference

Hope to hear from you soon!

Take care

Hmm... I don't suppose it was a good idea to describe roll-mops to some who is suffering morning sickness! Sorry about that!

I suppose one consolation about being pregnant now is that you will not have to be carrying the baby during such a hot summer as we had this year - I couldn't think of anything worse than being 9 months gone in the height of the summer we have just had.

Right, back to the night shift

Take care Universal Granny

Yeah thats a good one, & it was well timed wasn't it
I get hot flushes as it is & i can do without having them in 90*C heat

Morning sickness or not, the roll mops really don't appeal to me, i'm not a big fish fan
I only like fish shop fish & mussels & prawns & they have to be in moderation

Oh well, i'm off to nighty-noo's!


Have a nice evening/night!

Take Care
