Sounds very interesting Hobie, how do you get to hear about these things? I expect, being ****-er-nees, some of the conversation went a bit like this:
I?m really looking forward to a nice Ruby Murray,
But I must do a Banting and Best,
For before you indulge in a hot spicy curry,
You must do a blood sugar test!
I?ll work out the size of my grandfather?s nose,
Before a peck of my old speckled hen,
For you must be precise with your insulin dose
When you inject with your insulin pen!
You can choose to be pecked in your Old Auntie Nellie,
Or perhaps in your Old Fife and Drum!
But in public it?s best to inject in your belly,
As your bum may be too much for some!
Would you Adam and Eve that a nice Britney Spears,
Or even a stiff Fine and Dandy,
Can be supped with your meal? (That?s a bottle of beer,
Or a generous helping of brandy!)
You might want to finish your Lilley and Skinner
With a treat like a big Sexton Blake ?
With the lowered GI from the rest of your dinner,
There?s no reason you shouldn?t have cake!

If I'd known you were that close we could have had lunch, I'm at The British Library
