What are little boys made of?
Frogs and snails and puppy dogs tails,
That's what little boys are made of.

This nursery rhyme goes back a long way - originally, 'snips' and snails and puppy dogs tails - 'snips' being eels. We don't breed frogs for eating in this country, as far as I kno, and being near the Estuary, eels seemed to me to be more appropriate.

Recipe:
I iceberg lettuce (water source for the slug and snail)
2 fresh outcrop of slug-friendly mushrooms
1 eel
9 toothpicks and some pins
5 puppy dog tails (or shaped wholemeal bread if you prefer)
1 slug
1 snail

Method:
Assemble and play spot-the-snail

Is that what little boys are made of? Maybe so.
