You my Love are absolutely right and I apologise. I adore Hake and in fact, my second favourite Fish and Chips is hake. My No 1 is Huss (we called it Rock Salmon when I was little). Like you, I could cheerfully live on fish - and am pleased that there is this move pro-fish. I was not keen on Sishi to begin with but have some around. What I cannot eat under any circumstances are oysters. They just some straight back up. Cooked they are fine but that applies to all shellfish for me.
