I was in our local supermarket last week when I saw a disturbing sign. It is never pleasant to witness distress, however there didn’t seem to be any sounds of discontent or pain coming from the chilled cabinet. So I continued on my way and ignored the sign…

There’s nothing worse than battered fish,
It sits sadly on the dish.
You never hear it complain,
Just in case it gets thumped again.
So perhaps we all should make a wish,
To be much kinder to battered fish.
