I have just had a small operation which involved a certain amount of oral brutality, and I have to eat slops and sludge for a couple of weeks or so. Now, I have a dim memory of reading once about some Scots delicacy called, I think, Athol Brose, that involves porage and whisky and some other stuff. Can anyone help me out on this? Or anything else that might enliven the next couple of weeks, I'm exhausting my enthusiasm for whizzed up soup.
