        Yeeeeeerse, but if Piglet pops the pressure cooker on the Patent Peter Propane Burner, it might just compensate for his altitude.

        Alternatively, if Piglet knows anyone with an ex-RAF single seater, or a jet dragster............

              I think you could turn them from a fast rolling boil to a gentle simmer now Piglet. Just keep an eye on them in case they are still hard!

                    Someone said on the radio the other day that if you can still count them they aren't ready!

                      Now, Mr H Blumenthal suggests taking them apart leaf by leaf and cooking them thus...

                      dooooo tell me if you have the patience to do this, because I know I haven't!

                        An alternative to gas cylinders.

                        Have you tried making a curry of some of them and feeding them to your relatives and friends? With the correct piping connection arrangement you could save on the gas cylinders and have a continous supply.
                        A hot vindaloo should do nicely.

                          Final Results?

                          Piglet, were they al-dente or broke-toothy?

                              Piglet, are you waiting for the sprouts to drop from the stem before you harvest them?

                              If so, I'm begining to think that your plot must neighbour a golf course where they favour green balls.

                                Don't forget to add some bicarb to keep the stinky mess looking green! (They used to do it with mushey peas - what's wrong with grey peas I want to know?)
