No, we are not stockpiling ahead of no-deal Brexit. Pat has to have an operation on her right foot* when the waiting list has taken its course. When that happens she will be laid up for some weeks with her foot in a pot which raises some practical questions, not least cooking and eating. My culinary skills are limited to the microwave so we thought it might be good to try a test batch of those ready-meals for the elderly - the things that look so appealing in those whole-page advertisements in the newspapers.
You know full well that despite references to them being 'home cooked' they are made on an industrial scale and the gloop comes out of an enormous vat the size of a concrete mixer lorry.
Well, our test-batch arrived yesterday - our own selection from an admittedly wide menu including Mediterranean, Indian and Chinese dishes. Allegedly.
We shall report here in due course.
* It's not all bad news. That's the one she kicks with.
