Oh good, Galen - I was very nearly a tiny bit right, then!
corner you're saying that you slowly sneaked up on Somerset? Love it! Hope your inner Essex girl still livens up your particular corner from time to time!
I think a little Tara-type person will find its way into your heart and your home quite soon, Charley. You've no need to be home alone with all those sad little souls waiting for someone like you to love.
Glad you're feeling a bit better, Susan - a brief lie in courtesy of the divine Miss M today? Good plan.
Puzzler not sure what air mail you can provide, but I challenge you to defeat the new EU parcels rules - which actually nobody knows anything about. Meanwhile any small Puzzler emergency parcels will be greatly appreciated. Bring them on! Should you need tomatoes, citrus fruit, any fruit, cauliflowers, all vegetables and any manner of foreign cheeses, just let me know and I will arrange an air drop in exchange, courtesy of Biggles, my portly pigeon. {There's a bird who could tell you plenty about Logistics!}
You sound a little bit cheered, soop, no thanks to the Bungling Bastids of Technoland {that land being a very small place on the far side of Pluto - which might explain the inordinate delays in locating a small helping of decency and common sense! Fern is certainly a woman cat of mystery, isn't she? But then, imagine you having just an 'ordinary' cat !! ?
Hope the flood waters are still being held back and wishing you all a decent night, free of pain, worry and bad dreams, lovely Kitchener types.
TOYA and see you tomorrow. Hugs and hot chocolate from French France ? xx
