Possibly
I'm rather late to the party.
It was mentioned in the thread below.

Monty claimed this was piss-funny

Sadly, the majority consider him incorrect on this occasion.

What did you do about your telly Barry?

(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 22:34, Reply)
I'm trying to work out a way I can break it and make it look faulty so I can take it back.
Ideas welcome.
(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 22:37, Reply)
I'm not sure how that would work Barry.
You could try leaving it switch on 24/7 for a week and see if the thing overheats.

But the chances are, it won't.

What's up with it then?

(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 22:41, Reply)
Nothing, I'm certain I'll keep it as I can't take it back now and the only way to get my money back is if it breaks.
I just don't really need it. Saying that I'm sure as soon as I move out of here and into somewhere that actually gets TV reception I'll be more than happy.

Hmm
I feel sure you could do something with fuse wire - wrap it around a few components. It should last just about long enough to short something out without blowing something up. That or reverse the polarity on a nice big capacitor, switch the TV on while stood a long way away, then return the blackened capacitor to it's original state. The good bit about doing that is that it will probably take a few other bits along with it, rendering the thing un-fixable.

For something less explosive, pick one tiny diode, unsolder it and replace it the wrong way around. Should work, and it would be properly hard to find.

Happy b3'day Mrs Entity !
I'm totally chefing it up with an expermental cheesecake thinggy, made it up as I went along, one with a puff pastry base and the other with a shortcake base.

Can't fail cheesecake recipe:
It's in old money because I'm old.

2oz butter
6oz digestives

Crush biscuits and melt butter, mix and use to make the base in an 8" flan case.

Small tub double cream
Tub of mascarpone cheese
2oz caster sugar
juice and rind of one lime

Dump all in bowl,
Mix
Will go all thick,
Put on top of base
Put in fridge for 30 minutes or so.

Oh cool, that's pretty much identical to what I've done, except I've used creme fresh instead of cream, and made my own shortcake for the base.
I've studded stem ginger in them too, very thin and light places as the flavour of it is soo strong.
(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 22:57, Reply)
Oh, and egg yolk in the mix too, hopefully it'll make it richer.

(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 22:58, Reply)
and I'm baking it.

(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 22:59, Reply)
So actually not the same at all then!
I'm not too fond of baked cheese cake, and I've made this a bazillion times so I know it works.
(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 23:02, Reply)
Hah, true, oh' yeah', there is lemon curd in there too... Quite similar though I guess.
I love both types of cheesecake, this I guess is half way between a custard tart and a cheesecake. I got a felling it would have been better with gelitine to help it set though, but we'll see.
(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 23:18, Reply)
The tarts are lush, but I accidently burnt them =(

=D


I'm not being funny, but this is the nicest sweet dish I've ever made, really sharp and creamy and sweet.

Use bourbon biscuits
And sling a bit of JD in with the cream and mascarpone mix!
(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 23:05, Reply)
That sounds good, orios are supposed to make a good base too.
The masciponi sauce here is nice: www.coll3ctive.co.uk/food/recipes/paulypops/deep-fried-puff-pastry-filled-with-mars-bar-and-joy/

You got any good ideas what to do with posh cider? Pork is the ovbouse awnser, but what exactly is aluding me. I'm gonna do a creamy crab pasta on saturday, looking forward to that.
