    I want to go to a seafood restaurant.

    I want to start with clams with garlic butter and parsley, with some crusty bread. Then I should like a whole roasted turbot, with samphire. And chips.

    A bottle of Gavi di Gavi and, with dessert (mousse au chocolat, natch), some of that red Italian dessert wine we had at my wedding.

    I suppose I could do all that at home.

    Wait, I’m off to source a turbot.

    A whole roast turbot? The fúckers can be 14 kilos and the size of a table!

    Anyway, it won't be the same if you cook it yourself. The whole joy lies in just sitting there and having delicious things brought to you.

    Sadly I don’t have a good local fishmonger. Anyway, how many fishmongers are going to keep turbot in stock?

    I can think of a few that would. Still likely to cost you 50 notes, so as you were. Now salivating at the thought of a beautiful whole roast turbot.... Enjoy.

    enormous super trawlers that can clean out a whole year's supply of turbot in 10 minutes with nuclear powered sucking devices. They are all manned by sneering surrender monkey frogs who reek of garlic and never bathe and everyone of them is a personal friend of Mutti Merkel.

    'Kin right Herbs! Also our fishing boundaries stop at about 200 yards from our coast. The French, Spanish and Portguese help themselves to the rest of the 'English' Channel. Probably some Argies and a few German U-Boats in there for good measure.

    if I were to choose a restaurant to visit, seafood would be third bottom of that league.

    And therefore relegated along with vegetarian and vegan.

    Indian Curry House crowned champions. Again.
