Crofters on the west-Scotland coast, where soil is often very thin,
traditionally planted potatoes on a mound of seaweed. The mounds were
called lazybeds, must have been named by someone who had never done it
:-) Potatoes grown with seaweed taste marvellous.

Do you still have to salt the water when boiling them? ;o)

I never salt the water anyway - the last box of Maldon Sea Salt I bought
has lasted me nearly ten years.

Hardly any salt in anything and almost everything fat free. Plenty of fruit
and fibre and trying to lose another half a stone before we go away.

That's an amazing diet. Fat free - Do you mean low fat ?
As for salt and other salts you are probably eating more than think.
Plenty of fruits which contain much more fat than you think.
Finally added fibre (bran) can be harmful to your ability to absorb certain
vitamins.

At this rate you could be dead and gone within the week.

As low fat as possible. Very interesting statement on the front of some
Yogurt pots "FAT FREE", then round the back in the section contents "FAT
01Gr" Now that to me is NOT Fat Free. Low Fat yes, or even very low fat :-))

As for salt and other salts you are probably eating more than think.

Yes I agree there as well. Look at any packaging and there is aways salt in
its content. What I mean is that I do not tip loads of salt on my food.

Taking all of the last statements together some people may be pleased to see
me dead within the week, but according to my doctor I won't be, at least by
diet and how I was the last time he did a check up. I will take my doctors
advice because according to him, it is 'In his own interest to keep me
alive'.

All I know is that I am going to have to say 'No' to a lot of the food
whilst I am away :-((

I use a fair amount of fat, and often have (say) a sausage, bacon, black
pudding, white puding and fried leftover potato for breakfart (ToBAGO)

I don't eat a lot of processed or manufactured food. That excludes bacon
and black pudding, and I make my own white pudding and similar things.

Avocados contain plenty of fat.

And I avoid anything with 'added fibre' as I reckon I get enough - use
wholemeal flour as much as possible, plenty of veg, etc.

At this rate you could be dead and gone within the week.

And I'm still invisible, viewed sideways...

Well, one of them. Sometimes I add a bit of salt if I find myself
getting cramp during the night.
