May I bid you all good evening, in her Ladyships absence I have been asked to throw open the doors and bid you welcome.
Following last weeks excellent suggestion that we may raise some funds by having a small select campsite in the grounds whilst the 'Family@ were away, some very posh tents were procured or purloined and various facilities installed. After a local ad campaign we had a few takers, but and here is the rub, the local Bewildered neighbours though it a wheeze to disrupt proceedings. Damage to the lawns and a deep clean to the moat had to be done so all that was left was enough to clear the ever mounting tab at the chippy,
So maybe a fish supper later, still it was worth a try.
For the raffle I have knitted a camel hair scarf, courtesy of Humph, very soft.
ok all outside for a ciggie, Ill bring the tailcocks, try not to spill any on the patio or her Ladyship will have a fit. Where is she scavenging anyway?
I'll help myself to the nibbles and tailcocks, I've been running around all day. Then helped the gardener, I wondered why the hostas are doing well, it appears we have a frog in the garden eating up the slugs and pests.
Well I think I'll have to hit the road, if I have another of these tailcocks I think I would.
Goodnight everyone, I'm sorry Its been such a short visit tonight. I missed my pal ttfn tonight too, she usually does the pedalling home. x
Times are hard in the big house alex, she could be scavaging (Wendy gags herself from mentioning place names).
Anywhere.
Flippiong keyboard won't baCK SPACE. Now it keeps doing upper case, grrrrr!!
Time for me to leave ladies so I will wish you all a very good night and thanks for the company. One last fortune cookie "a friend in need is a friend you dont need". Night all
Good heavens gran, may I borrow your frog. Sick of slug pellets, they do work but hate clearing up the dead little blighters.
Think I'll go, Ester Ranzen ad is getting me annoyed.
Thanks mamya, I'll be off now, happy in the knowledge Alex has sorted the bewildered lo can fly my broom flipping key board mis behaving again. Sleep well, thanksxx
I hesitate to intrude upon such a grand soirée, being of the humble peasantry and not the gentry, but did I not read somewhere that moat cleaning can be claimed on expenses?
mike we can claim nothing indeed we pay for the privilege of being considered a loyal retainer, I urge you to rethink and stay as a visitor, do have a drinkies.
