    It sounds ghastly! (Though I can think of one member here for whom this would be ideal. )

    Well if it was 1st April, I'd say it was a spoof. The diet appears somewhat lacking in fruit & fibre.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    I really cannot imagine anything worse.

    The flavours of great food (and wine) are one of life's greatest joys. There is no length not worth going to in order to achieve culinary excellence. I do most of the cooking in our household and I don't regret a single minute spent in the kitchen.

    Handy if your in a hurry or can't be bothered though.

    Also useful if you gave a dodgy stomach and struggle with too much solid food.

    The name is a bit daring, though. Life imitates art once more.

    What a difficult choice it would have been today. A nice glass of white powder or one of our rabbits, slow cooked on the woodburner in cider and armagnac with peppers and celeriac, with fresh steamed vegetables from the garden.

    So glad I didn't have to make the choice

    When we went to Ravenna a few years ago, there was a McDonalds under a portico in the old city. It was closed and the sign reversed (translucent, or I wouldn't have known what it was). I asked at the hotel what had happened, and was told "We didn't want it here, so we got it closed down".
    I like Ravenna.
