I knew the worst before I even opened the parcel. It was 1994 and we were exchanging Christmas presents. "''We know that you're a Grigson fan"'', he said "''so we got you her latest!" '' finished his wife.
Yes, I am a Grigson fan; Jane Grigson that is. I knew it wasn't "her latest" because she'd died the year before. I also knew what it would be - "Travels a la Carte" from Jane Grigson's daughter, Sophie Grigson and her anthropologist husband William Black. My heart sank.
