I’m sitting at my computer when a link refuses to load, leaving me with a white screen. I click on several of the 37 other windows I have open. None of them loads. I go and find my wife in front of her computer. “Are you having trouble with the internet?” I say. “Why yes,” she says. “I am.” She doesn’t seem as put out by the situation as I am. I go and look at the wifi router, which is pulsing with an eerie blue light – a sign that all is not well. I unplug it briefly, and let it reset itself.

The fried pickle – or frickle – is an on-trend appetiser with a murky provenance. Allegedly, it dates back to the early 1960s, originating at a drive-in restaurant in Arkansas run by an individual who laboured under the name Bernell “Fatman” Austin. Frickles are generally deep-fried, like onion rings, and usually accompanied by a gloopy dipping sauce such as aioli, dill and caper yoghurt or ranch dressing.

One minute the house is full – when I walk in the oldest one, and his friend, and the middle one, and my wife are all fussing over a manual juicer the oldest one has brought back from a car boot sale. “What’s going on?” I say. “We’re juicing,” says the oldest. There are 20 spent orange halves on the worktop, and an inch of juice in a glass below the squeezer. “Is it working?” I say. “Sort of,” says the middle one. “I might have bought the wrong kind of oranges,” my wife says.
