Bovril, yuck, Cod liver oil was supposed to be good for the eyes at one point, as mine were very bad I had 2 tsps a day, now I take the capsules for my arteries, malt extract, a dessertspoonful was given to 2's juniors every morning between November and February.

I really like cod liver oil. I bought a huge bottle of it...much cheaper than those capsules. Its got such a nice taste and feel, as it slips down your throat. :D

At least it's cod liver oil not castor oil he likes.

I'll thank you not to talk behind my back. In fact, you've reminded me that I need to buy some cod liver oil (in a 300ml bottle) from Horsham this afternoon...

And no, I'm not joking.

Isn't it cheaper in larger bottles?

We were not talking behind your back, it was all there out in the open.

Dear Luke,

I think you're weird because you like cod liver oil. But each to their own, I suppose someone's got to like it.

Yours truly,
