Postscript

Eeek. Ran into the basil v's mint boy at the pub after the Stereophonics (Yes, Trish, Kelly = total tiger). Felt guilty. He invited us to share a table with his mates. Felt more guilty, so confessed that I'd overheard his basil/mint question at the supermarket but not realised that it was him until after. Left out the bit about blogging it. Got to the table. His friends were fun and friendly. Felt even more guilty. Told him about the blog. He laughed nervously and started singing a Laura Veirs song, so I think it was OK in the end. Avi asked what you have to do to get mentioned in the blog.
