I must have been about five years old as I remember I had to stand on a kitchen stool while he showed me how to dress a Crab,\u00a0 take the vein from a Tiger Prawn, and fillet a fish. One of his favourite fishy snacks was &#8221; jellied eels.&#8221;\u00a0 Ugg. This is a real Cockney dish but I hated that Gramps had to cut their heads off while they were still wriggling so I would never eat them. Many years later when I married a Cockney lad he said &#8220;Just try some&#8221;. Well I found I really liked them, especially when Paul had prepared them himself for me, but I stayed out of the kitchen until he had finished. Isn&#8217;t it funny how colors bring back different memories for us all. Good palette, good memories&#8230; cheers Cindy. <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\"><strong>~Elaine-F<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Very lovely colors Cindy.
