hello, woofy, pleased to see your fire has not gone out. Broccoli sounds fine to me.
Went to a talk on Local History last night by a Local Historian And Old Identity. Very interesting, went back to the Celts, who apparently called the place Noble Leader or something of the sort. Then we chatted to neighbours who are off in a week or two for a cruise on the Irrawaddy, which of course left me green with envy. She kindly dropped off a brochure this morning, leaving me greener.
Apart from that, went shopping for OH's birthday next week. OH has firm tastes, getting firmer with the years, and already has pretty well everything an OH needs, so is increasingly difficult to buy for. So far, it's tickets to Jerusalem (the play not the city) and chocolates which, if they displease the recipient, can alway be scoffed by me. <licks lips>
