Episode description
HANDS DOWN my favourite day of the year.
Even tops when I got a pair of Heeleys (with green lights) for my 25th.
Summer yawns, the sun shudders in the high blue skies like a white marble.
Meatopia an unctuous utopia of unreal grub.
A bacchanalian flame-soaked meteorite of food, fire and booze.
This Little Piggy went Tobacco Docks, “Me, Eat” - stuffing my face, Notorious P.I.G. style.
Washed down gallons of Beer, the colour of Autumn, cold like Winter, tastes like Spring.
A Notorious B.I.G line up - Ottolenghi, Fergus Henderson, Richard Turner.
