Oh, but I've just enjoyed a lovely meal of Scottish Salmon, Cornish potatoes, and British spinach, with a sauce made of British cream and dill from the garden. All washed down with a very nice glass of NZ sauvignon blanc. I can't vouch for the lemon, which may well have been EU sourced, I may just have to do without in future. I don't know how you manage it, but you give tiresome twats a seriously bad name...

    Tuesday : Scottish salmon fish pie with a cornish mash potato topping with fresh grass from the garden, some fecker stole all my dill..NZ wine delayed due to bad weather in pacific.

          You spelled "months" wrong. It's actually "weeks"...

          PS - you also spelled "theee" wrong. It's actually "two"...

          Otherwise, as you were...party round your place on April Fools Day, I take it. Should I bring a bottle?

            According to a DEFRA report published earlier this year:



            From: https://publications.parliament.uk/p...ru/348/348.pdf
            EU tariffs on food from the vast majority of African countries is currently 0%.

            HTH.
