Like using your soup spoon away from you to scoop up the contents; doesn't make sense, has further to travel to yer gob, and tipping the plate towards the centre of the table to grab those last remaining drops. Of course, would do this when out dining, but never at home now ... probably tip the plate directly into my mouth anyway ..

Loved the bit where 'Kevin' was making a stew butty.

Knife kate, whats one of those
