I was rummaging through my photo collection looking for an ancient print of ladybirds when I came across this:
One problem with eating octopus is that it can be quite tough. Brought to mind a radio programme where some chap (whose name I forget) talked about life in Greece. One day he was listening in to a conversation between two elderly English ladies. One said that the Greeks weren't very kind to animals. "I don't know," said the other, "yesterday I saw someone taking an octopus for a walk."
Apparently she'd seen someone tenderising an octopus: put a string on it and smash it against the floor, occasionally dipping it into the sea: something to be done while walking alongside the harbour and chatting to your mates ....
