Hello there, my reading friend. Given that yours truly still had a lot of material on T.K. Bellis Turtle Company Limited of London, England, I thought best to put said that material in this second instalment. And here it is. Are you not joyous? I could easily have turned this project into a three-part article, you know… Humm, your show of joy is not exactly staggering but it will do.

Do you like sea creatures, my reading friend? Do you like them platonically or do you like them once they have been baked, braised, broiled, canned, cured, dehydrated, dried, fermented, fried, grilled, marinated, microwaved, pickled, poached, roasted, salted, simmered, smoked, steamed or stewed? Unless of course you prefer sushi or have turned away from meat – a thoroughly honourable option and one which is better by far for the planet. (Hello, EG, EP and KR!) Incidentally, the source of the
