Best dreams and rest, all.

We used to have a friend who kept llamas before they were fashionable.

I understand that after a few weeks the local police asked him not to keep them in the field next to a busy roundabout, from which field they could ogle and urgle at the passing traffic, because there kept being accidents.

I do so wish I could draw. ‘Llama, in a field, waiting to be fashionable.’ I feel they would rather like Mary Quant, and possibly Biba.
Jumping up and down on rude foxes and allied nuisances is good too, from a llamoid point of view, or so I am told. Their keepers tend to fall absurdly in love with them. I merely admire the accuracy and heft of their gobbing.

Meanwhile, I have taken our guest to the airport. Another horribly hot day here, it seems. I’ll be under that pile of ice over there.

Can you extol the benefits of alpacas loud and long

And they are pretty…

(1) Wait for alpaca to amble past
(2) Leap out with shears
(3) Profit!
(4) spend several hours cleaning alpaca-spit off everything

Why does everyone think camels llamas and alpacas spit constantly?

I am sure that they can be encouraged to use a spitoon

If some stranger leapt out and sheared me, I’d probably spit at 'em.

Cracked it! First of all I couldn’t see what I was doing, and then when I could see, thanks to the Goggles of Enlargement and Enlightenment, it became apparent that I didn’t know what I was doing… much swearing ensued. And then I found alternative instructions for the same thing which made it clear that while the pictures in the first set might have been right, the wording was misleading or, to put it another way, plain wrong.
Thanks to a certain amount of resistance from the medium, it being fiddly even if one does know what one is doing, it only took me all afternoon.
The beads involved were 11s and 15s, meaning either eleven or fifteen of the little swine to the inch.

Gus is now Ready For A Drink. Care to join me?

Actually, a drink is pretty much essential at this point, it being TA-00.03

Yes; I think I shall now have a large vodka and elderflower cordial, with lots of ice.

Some things are so nasty that it needs a lot to wash the flavour of them out of ones mouth.

Having given some thought to the puzzle of What on Earth You Have Been Doing, I have only managed to conclude that it was probably not vajazzling. Even though it sounds awfully like it.

Making jewellery, Dere. And before you start, not for the fanny or points adjacent, either.

But I have a hot-glue-gun and sequins, so it’s a question of whether or not you feel lucky, TFM. Well, do you?

I am always very, very good.

Sometimes I’m very, very good at being bad, but that is still being very, very good at something, isn’t it?
