I think you might find that actually we do. It’s what Blue Sky is all about, and Michael would encourage you to embrace that.

I had a lovely butternut squash, chestnut and sage soup in a restaurant in Frome. It was very smooth, quite salty and subtly festive.

I was born on the same day as Bono. My husband took me to Dublin for my 50th birthday so beforehand I tweeted about it to Bono and suggested that we meet for a shared birthday pint of the black stuff in a pub by the Liffey.
He didn’t show up.
I never liked him anyway.

Ah yes I know that antibiotics can cause problems. We all avoid them as much as possible and our GPs are very good at not prescribing them unless absolutely necessary. We have had a “wait and see” prescription so if the problem clears up in the following 24 hours or so we don’t start taking them.

No, daughter and grandson still have theirs.
My husband had his out in his 40s after the children were born.
But mine must have been removed with my colon when I was 25. Before children.
I’ve not heard that that was a thing!

She’s using oat milk but has to order a certified GF one online!
But we had a totally GF and mainly DF Xmas and Boxing Day without too much trouble. It just takes a bit of planning doesn’t it.

Oh and daughter is allergic to celery and strawberries!
Neither her dad or I are dietary restricted in any way. Makes you wonder where it all came from.

My daughter is coeliac and her little boy (20 months, still breastfeeding) has a cows milk intolerance and is allergic to eggs!
But at least we can all eat nuts! (As long as not “may contain”!)
Challenging but not impossible.
