Food and hypocrisyNo, not the latest Ken Loach film. He was sitting at the dinner table munching into a doner kebab, his face filled with a guilty satisfaction (and not a little grease). And I was thinking: my little brown balls of scientifically balanced nutritional crunchiness are all very well but sometimes you just want a lump of meat.
Now, as it happens, there was some shopping sitting on the floor of the dining room because in their haste to stuff greased lumps of meat and pitta into their faces, they couldn't be bothered to unpack straightaway. And one bag had the distinct aroma of ham. I was just sniffing. Nothing more. But he still told me in no uncertain terms to get away from it.
So, there you have it. He can break his 'diet' for a doner, but I can't have a little bit of ham when I fancy it. What's good for the gander is sauce for the goose or summat. Whatever.
