I cut the skin back, cover the whole thing (not the skin) in honey etc and put the skin back and secure with cocktail sticks… best of both worlds ;) 

It just someone was telling me to salt the skin 24hours before cooking to draw out the moisture and get really crispy crackling.

I'd cook them separately, do crackling hot and fast and ham as standard, but yeah I guess leaving it on will draw out more moisture but don't think I'd bother 👍🏻

Rabbit Pie ! And, for the purists, made with shortcrust pastry, NOT puff pastry ! ? ! Cheers.

Family get together at ours, so a bit of a spread.. 13 hour cooked brisket, slow cooked pork shoulder.. Home made coleslaw, stuffing, roasties... and a 2 day hangover! Lol

Treat off my dad tonight, he's a friend on the fresh fish stall up town... Scallops and lemon sole fillets...

You and Arry turn out some great grub ! And the fact you've probably laid 2 acres of slabs ,or 3 miles of fencing during the day ! I'm guessing you enjoy the cooking ? It's quite relaxing, music on ,beer on the go ,

Got a gammon in the oven kids want it with pineapple rings? And new potatoes for tonight , I'm hoping they sleep well after that ...lol
