[Stuart N. Clarke]

“The supermarket chain Sainsbury's said that if the travel restrictions continued there could be some food shortages, including of salad leaves and citrus fruit.” (BBC)


>From Alan Bennett’s “A Private Function” (set in 1947):

PC PENNY: Mrs Metcalf?
MRS METCALF: What love?
PC PENNY: Are you wanting that banana?
MRS METCALF: (Apologetically) I am, love, I’m planning a trifle.
