delurking to say, firstly, that i wish you a very speedy recovery - came across your site relatively recently and was really sorry to hear about your very nasty accident. *sends "blast from the past" hug*.

secondly to say - i'm glad that i'm not the only person who uses tolerably stewed/blended/brothed vegetables as a substitute for just eating them properly (because they're horrible).

and of course, thirdly to say hi... don't know if you still remember me; i was in the year below you at kings. following a nasty stalker-related incident i'm rather precious about using my actual name on t'internet but it began with T and if i'd married Pete de Bolla i'd have had the most alliterative name at cambridge...
