The Old Man Makes Marmalade

Yes indeed. His first ever marmalade.

Very good it is too. Good flavour. Good colour...

But I says to him:

"Howcome your strips of peel are about half inch wide and two inch long?"

He say:

"It said to cut the peel as thick as you like."

I say...fishing around in the jar what is like a bowl of pasta.... "Huh?"

The Old Man climbs onto his high horse....

"It's what one prefers to call Orange Preserve." Say he. Sniff.
