Yuzu is a Japanese citrus fruit, likened to a wild mandarin orange crossed with a lemon. This product is 100% yuzu juice, with strong citrus notes, laced with heady floral, lime blossom aromas. Green yuzu juice is so strongly perfumed, that it was once used as an ingredient in scented bath oils! It’s more commonly found in the kitchen now – used in ponzu sauces or yuzu chilli pastes. Green yuzu juice is also used in some of the world’s best cocktail bars, recently featuring in the James Bond Skyfall Martini. There is no Western equivalent to yuzu juice – so keep a bottle in your fridge for homemade condiments, vinaigrettes, fish marinades, floral-scented granitas and a cheeky cocktail or two. A little goes a long way! Also available in store is hand-pressed yuzu juice. Ingredients: 100% yuzu juice. Storage: store in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight. Please note brand may differ from photograph, depending on availability.
When the madness of battle takes hold of the Slaangor Fiendbloods, the carnage they leave in their wake is truly sickening. These gregarious beasts are frighteningly strong and fast, and fight frantically in defiance of their own survival. Despite their almost delicate appearance, these wild beasts strike with the force of a hurricane. Gifted with supernatural speed and vigour, even in small units they can attack the enemy, while a concerted attack in numbers can disintegrate the most imposing formations. One of the figurines can be assembled in the form of Slake-Horn, to lead the unit. This 37-component plastic kit assembles 3 Slaangor Fiendbloods figurines (one of which can become Slake-Horn as a unit leader). Each figure comes with a 40mm citadel round base.

Anne and I have been busy painting studio-portrait-backdrops- proper stretched canvases, prepared with gesso, proper oil colours mixed with linseed oil, and proper blue hands! Reet proper results too (as they say in Yorkshire)
While it's still chilly out, it's time to give this honey wine its due attention. Drinking horns sold separately.
Record collectors entranced by the otherworldly sounds of Ethiopian funk and jazz of the 1960s and 70s had only rare 45s to slake their thirst until the Ethiopiques series of albums hit US shores in the late 90s. Those albums feature some of the best music to come out of the scene, but still more albums await re-release.
