Ackshully, there's this bit while cooking pumpkin soup when you take a box of matches and you go and set - no, hang on, that's pea soup.

No, the pumpkin soup is kitchenfirefree. I'll send you te recipe!

BTW: you know what it's called when ALL the trains on one day (or in one week) fuck up, don't you? (Or at least, what I call it...?)
