Mmmm chestnuts my grandad used to do them on the gas fire by placing them through the wire not as enticing as that pan but well worth it when we ate them

Caz650´s yup portuguese love their st´s days.. any excuse for what they consider fireworks to be (not actually let off at night, and not actually pretty.. just a flash bang things let off every flippin hour!)

Hope you guys had a good holiday at least you had good weather for the most part.
