Prawns as well, and the occasional mussel.

When I was young you could collect periwinkles from the rocks. They were boiled and what was called the "eye" was removed with a pin, followed by the winkle. I refused to eat them! Have who collected and eaten shellfish?

Yes, on holiday in France we collected mussels from the rocks at low tide, and I cooked them , delicious!

Do you know not to eat any that don't open during cooking?

Yes, learned that early. I used to get moules et frites in France and it was a big pot of them and the liquor at the bottom was amazing.


Do you think the food's better in little local places? I do.

Yes, food cooked in smaller batches is usually best. I always look for a small place rather than a chain or large restaurant. I've actually had amazing food at festivals from a small van! You can also get appalling food at festivals

Jam doughnuts or doughnuts with holes?

Ever had your laptop make a weird noise, then refuse to type anything?? Well you type but it doesn't appear on the screen? I had to reboot the bugger!

I suppose in a sense it is the ultimate punk thing to do, but a shame in terms of history

Do you hang on to the things of your youth or liberate them and enjoy the things of now?
