It will be!

Bootlaces, huh? I'll keep that in mind for later.

My Yorkshire cousins ended a wedding reception by serving a roast pig at midnight under a massive harvest moon. That was the wedding at which I saw an old bloke quietly loosen his bootlaces in order to make room for more beer. Very Yorkshire.

Roast pig a speciality at the Malvinas House, Half?

Hmm, is that when it’s traditional to put a whole pig in?

The only time I ever had a whole pig (I didn’t have the whole pig, obviously, but the whole pig was there to be had) was the only time we ever were away but not at family’s somewhere for Christmas, and we went to a luau in Maui for Christmas dinner.

It’s been a year since the last piggy. I’m ready.

Augh!

So, refridgerated box technology has really come a long way in recent years...

Maybe I should replace the tip jar with an address to send regional food. Apple pies from you, meat pies from down under, RC2 can throw some gazpacho in a jar, a whole pig rotating on a spit probably from Half...

After spending the weekend converting the Red estate’s terrific crop of apples into pies, crumbles and chutneys, Mrs Red and I would never ever again speak to anyone who turned their noses up at what is some of the best grub of the entire year. (It was taking less than half an hour to get an apple from tree to cooling rack.)
