Have we got time for another?
What, wine? Oh no let me recover
Well maybe a sherry
Gin from a berry
Or a drop of fine malt to discover

It's nice having friends round to eat.
Good company just can't be beat.
They taste best well done
Hard, cooking for one

But keep your clouts on when you roam!

(That's interesting. Where I live, clout means political influence.)

Mollygo Mon 30-Jan-23 16:22:45

I do, when alone in the shower.
