Letter: Letters: Burned out

Published 16 October 1993

From LIAM FITZGERALD-FINCH

Would Peter Naylor like to suggest a cure for ‘burned out food-mixer
syndrome’, with which the appliance I used to mix his ‘thixotropic corn
flour recipe’ (Letters, 14 August and 4 and 25 September) seems to have
been afflicted?

Would the aforementioned also find it agreeable to hint at a remedy
for the injuries caused by the severe verbal battering I got from the owner
of the above-mentioned article?
