Several decades ago I made the memorable journey across what was then the Soviet Union by the Trans-Siberian Express. At breakfast time the Brits and Australians aboard would bring out their little pots of Marmite and Vegemite and argue the respective merits of these two concoctions.
Then I just heard a couple of days ago that some people in Singapore eat Marmite congee. How the British Empire lingers...
Trying to make sense of a weird world - and maybe make it a little better. If that's not possible, then laugh at it. Those with shorter attention spans may enjoy us on Twitter at Private Pebble.
