Haha, this reminds me of the diner in the Chinese restaurant complaining to the waiter, 'this tastes rubbery' and he said 'ah, thank you very much'. Fun Senryu, Tom. Regards, Viv

I wouldn't be amused either Tom. She should have told him to tell it to the Chef - Then he would be faced with the ire of this big guy who carved up the fowl. Lol. Loved it
