One of my best moments in early independent life was at the cheap end of Ridley Road, near the end of the trading day. A trader had a load of boxes of yellow peppers, part spoiled but mainly sound. I asked how much for one box, he looked at me and just gave me all of the boxes.

How widespread is the cultural belief that teeth, speech and weaning are interrelated? It's ingrained in my middle-aged white English mind.
