Last night, during our emergency shop ...

... (we'd neglected to do any shopping at the weekend you see), I popped a bag of "Traditional Dutch Recipe Cats Licorice" into the trolley.
Mr Brown gave me a funny look when I did so but I just assumed he was being cheeky about my popping sweeties in the trolley.
This morning, as I placed the bag of little salty black cats into my work bag Mr Brown went "O, I see now, that's a relief".
"See what?"
"Those are for you, it's not Cats' Licorice".
Yes, Mr Brown thought I was buying licorice for the cats. Tonight we will not be eating oysters for dinner, not a single one.
