# reason not the need


I've had more productive mornings, but at least I'm still in bed.

# I love Durian.
At work (on the night shift, so small team), we had this older woman who thought that the only things that were food were Britsh (as she ate her chips made from potatoes - you know the sort). So, I used to make a point of eating foreign food, just to wind her up. Asian (South, South-East and East) foods were particularly effective and Durian was perfect.

The fruit tastes like a lovely caramel custard and has a beautiful texture that makes it ideal for mixing into other things such as the pudding here www.grosse.is-a-geek.com/lunch/durianRicePudding.html which is designed to take to work and eat cold (It is very nice).

The downside of Durian is that it smells like the chemical they add to natural gas so that you know if you have a problem with it escaping. One night, the night manager came into the canteen and asked if there was a gas leak.
