    I,ve eaten plenty of flying fish, very nice too, but for goumet food I think the Oysters and smoked eels down in the Bluff,N.Z. were the greatest. Dirt cheap 50 years ago. Wasn,t too keen on the mutton birds, though!

    When I next Grind Dem Bones Captain Kong I will certainly send you a sample.
    In the meantime keep drinking the Guinness and Oysters.
