Silly martin tried to fight the tube. But couldn't. We don't have carnation breakfast here. But for a long time he could eat liquid porridge with maple syrup, rice pudding, custard, and creme caramel. Then it all started tasting of salt. He kept thinking I was sneaking in some salt in his food. That's when he had to go for the tube because he weighed the same as me (9 stones for 6ft2).
It's not pleasant to put in or take out (I had to look away while I was holding his hand). But once it was in in he had no trouble.
