This was a couple of weeks ago but I've just got round to working out how local (or not) it was:

Starter: Vegetable soup. The veggies were local but the butter and bay leaves weren't (don't know about the pepper either), and the vegetable stock was Swiss. Points: 2.29

Main course: Fish pie with two kinds of veg. Again, local veg and smoked haddock, the potatoes were Northern as, I suppose, were the Manx kippers (it's not very far!); the crème fraiche was French. 1.92.

Dessert: as made by The Spouse™, lime pie. The limes were from Brazil. They don't grow limes in the North, I don't think... The digestives however were from Stockport... Points: 1
