Perhaps it is an error of judgement, but I am off to St David's, West Wales tomorrow to give my best operatic performance. I am distinctly on edge about the lesbian contingent, so I shall take my mace and pepper spray, but I am looking forward to the luxury accommodation promised. There is nothing like the red carpet treatment, which I seem to get everywhere I go. I so love to be showered with gifts.
Meanwhile, I have been doing some desk research on this part of Wales and understand that this is considered a local delicacy:
That, apparently, is laverbread, or gelatinous, Welsh puréed seaweed. It has been described as 'Welshman's caviar'.
How sophisticated the Welsh are to enjoy eating such black gunge. No doubt it is collected by laverbread lesbians!
