The Food Monologues

I've been eating a lot of fish recently - well you could say I am on a fish diet. Besides I do like fish. Today I tried canned sild or slid as I call it, much to Tim's amusement. Sild, I have discovered is a small herring, with silvery skin. I didn't like the taste of it much - perhaps because it was canned in sunflower oil? But it was very fishy yet had no flavour - a little too oily and the slid about (sorry bad pun).
