Local Food
Being enjoying lots of fish and chips lately. Lots of grease. The interesting thing is that some stores deep fry the fish with the skin on. Still good. And for breakfasts, eggs, sausages, back bacon, tomato, mushrooms and black pudding. And in Scotland had haggis, neeps and tatties, which is the national dish with turnip and mashed potato. Must say I like haggis. Good to sample the local cuisines. Food on Iona was porridge and toast for breakfast, every day. Interesting how you can dress up porridge. They also are mostly vegetarian so lots of casseroles with vegetables. And they have a great book of graces.

Hi Robin,
You seem to be enjoying sampling the local food!
Fish and chips never tasted better than when the shops were allowed to wrap them in paper and the outside layer was ordinary newspaper!
When I go to Lethbridge in October there is a fish and chip fryer that was imported from England almost 40 years ago! I hope to photograph it this time as I didn't have the camera with me the day I went.THe rainy weather is a common occuren to pick up the order
Glad you wre able to attend Choral Evensong in the cathedral.
The rainy weather is a regular occurrence in the Lakes.All those hills and valleys.
I shall be in touch again soon
Neil
