    They're a thing of beauty, not going in a Spoons to look at them anytime soon though.

    I'm not sure if you're saying this to try and wind me up or if you really mean it!

    Some good news for you, two outlets trade for the last time today, the already publicised Grapes in Sutton and the Stick or Twist in Leeds where the whole site is going to be turned into student housing apparently.

    Nowadays any plate or bowl is an improvement on the ridiculous fad for using old slates, bits of many driftwood, old boots (no, not him) or shovels.

    Well that depends on what the food is, where it is placed and who is eating it.
