Letter: Letter: Salty story

Published 6 March 1993

From C. PARKER

Your article on thirsty drinkers (This Week, 13 February) reminds me
of my early days behind the bar; here the landlord provided a large bowl
of free biscuits on the counter. I soon realised these biscuits were slightly
salted. Another pint please!
