You are right, I wouldn't.  But thanks.

You have not seen the magnum opus play by the late Lord Goldwyn of Britain,
"Mistress Laurel Explains It All AT You."  In it, Mistress Laurel is 'given the
bird' and is pelted by thrown rubber chickens from all the assembled cast.  I
remember the odd looks I got whilst shopping for props for this baby.  We've
really got to do this one again.

A nice poached salmon, if you please.  Oh all right, you can catch it legally if
you wish.

Huzzah for the power of positive whinging!  I was happy to meet Bonne in person
as well!  I was probably useless at that meeting we had about organizing a War
Kitchen, still being stunned at the time.

I think I may celebrate by organizing that Fish Feast I've been threatening to
do for years.  Oh aye, nobody will eat fish at a SCA feast, but how about one
just for us seafood lovers?
