MMM. lobster salad!
Did I tell you the story of out friend from Maine who flew over with 2 live lobster.................................?

Sounds like a good story; why not tell us??

I guess there's not much of a story - except that he did it. Obviously got on the plane at Portland Me, changed at Boston, carrying a box with LIVE MAINE LOBSTERS on it. Walked though immigration and customs at Heathrow

. I didn't believe the gift really 'did what it said on the tin' but lo and behold, open the box and there they were, 2 lobsters, claws taped but feelers wriggling, sitting on a cool-pac.

Poor creatures, thought they were going on vacation, and they just ended up in my largest saucepan.

Gary had to do the deed. I wanted to put them in the freezer, as I've heard that tranquilises them, but the Maine man said no - straight into an inch of fast boiling water

After the drama, they were excellent!

I would love to try fresh lobster, but that is something I couldn't do.

Fresh lobster is gorgeous!

I never did a live lobster, but have done crabs...awfully messy, easier to just buy the crabmeat !
