Our last Christmas dinner was a medium-sized cauliflower between 6 of us (friends joined us for all ‘holidays’), a large rather ‘woody’ swede, and a small piece of belly pork which gave each of us a piece the round of a teacup. We cooked it all in the copper of a nearby abandoned nursing home, whose one-time matron was a family friend, as we had no fuel for a fire by this time and there was no gas or electricity.
