Not Quite a Recipe

If not the best ever, then certainly up there in the Super League Playoff or even Champions’ League qualifying zones. 

Oh, where would we be without sporting metaphors? 

Well, I rely a lot on driving metaphors and occasionally on the military, interchanging with analogies as the occasion demands, so a better question might be:

Oh where would I be without metaphors? 

Metaphors are so much more grown-up and economical of words than similes.  My imagination suits something “being” something else, rather than a “like” or an “as” so they win every time. 

In other words shapeshifting appeals more to me than fancy dress.

There is more magic, imagination and genetics involved.
