Timgad

Some of you may remember my frustrated attempts to locate some nuts (
). After several expeditions to the various asian and health food shops around Dublin 2 and 8 I was beginning to lose hope. Everything I saw was either boring, tiny, loaded with sugar or grossly overpriced. That was, until I found this strange little shop beside the polyclinic.
Four hundred grams of mixed nuts with no salt, sugar, peanuts or raisons. Four ninety nine. Still a little more than I’d like to pay, but throw in a tray of thirty eggs for four fifty and you’ve got a deal. Yes, thirty. Thirty eggs. It’s the fat man’s equivalent of asking ‘what can you do me for cash?’.
I now subsist on a diet made up entirely of nuts and eggs.
I call it the Steve McQueen.
