Wot, no Brussels?

 

Do you like Brussels sprouts?

Gail does but I don't. A Sunday carvery meal with roast beef but 'no Brussels' would suit me just fine, although I do wonder if calling something a 'Brexit Special' might not be the cleverest marketing ploy in a city which voted heavily for 'remain' in the 2016 referendum.

I am still hoping that Gail will take me on holiday to Germany or Switzerland one day, like she did with my predecessor Bouncing Bertie. But she says travelling with a pet over to the Continent has got more complicated and expensive since the UK left the European Union. As has so much else.

I do believe that in some quarters my human would be labelled a 'Remoaner'.
