We went to friends' for lunch today. It was a bit manic before we left. It was a 60 minute drive. I'd made the starter. Emptied the bags. Poppadoms, raita, chapatis, wine... Onion bhajis. Where are the Onion bhajis? Bugger. I'd left them on the kitchen top.

Just watched "Faking It" With the lady from Castleford in Yorkshire, thrown into the bear pit of London pretention. I'm from Yorkshire, and have met many Lords and Ladies. I'd say that they feel at their most relaxed when they are with people who don't fake it.
