Several points:
1. So when people went out for a picnic they deliberately didn't
choose an area with a spring close by? I think that bubbly water is
perfectly reasonable under certain circumstances.
2. I'm sure you're all going to sit on me for this, but my favourite
knife is a Mundial, which doesn't even complain after cutting up a
whole sheep into manageable bits.
3. Do people think that a small amount of tact is called for
occasionally? I mean, I know that there are half-a-dozen or so
'important' people on the list, and the rest of us aren't, but do we
really have to be squashed quite so heavily? Self-esteem isn't
always that easy to come by.
4. Can anyone help with documentation for haybox cookery? Seems
like a good thing to use for no-fire picnic events, but I'd like to
have documentation.
5. The only eel we've had to deal with (and it lasted about 6 meals
for the pair of us) was not electric in any way (are there multiple
species of eel, apart from fresh/salt water? Maybe I should ask my
zoologist husband). It did, however, die very hard. We ended up
using an axe and hoping none ofthe neighbours was watching...
