So, who wants to help ... to cower in the cellar?

Of course. I must keep up at the back.

There must be a story behind this.

I’ll be back, lucky you lot.

A ‘thorough wash’ involves a surprising amount of Stomping About, btw

There is a nasty rumour going round that they came for the TT and not for the birthday twins. But we know the truth don’t we?

We do.
Why would they give a tuppenny upright about mere bikes? But a Bee anna Twellsy (no dere, they weren’t particularly impressed with the broom either, I’m afraid) are a very different matter.
Nothing but the best of the best will do.

You should see my earrings, Gus. One pair is handmade, teeny pottery bees and the other is silver with amber accents.

Thanks, Gus. Over the years, I have been given a lot of silver and amber (I don’t think that Carinthia cares for amber). I have a pair of silver earrings that I purchased from Helen of Troy. They need a bit of a polish and I shall do this tomorrow.

Now, joe, we don’t discuss that shower, here, so don’t get me started on the accents they murder. Like mine - I have a pronounced Newcastle/Northumbrian accent, but it sounds nowt like that blurry Ruth. I hope.

Eta I am off to bed. Happy last birthday minutes to my Twin, gentle hugs forran out-of-shape Fish, a night of less bitey stuff to Gus, concerned thorts for our newly bled Chatelaine and best dreams to all.

Amber is too Yeller fer me, Soo

Are the Beely Earrings from C.W. Sellors, by any chance ? They have the most fabulous collection of Bee/Dragonfly/Butterfly jewellery including some stunning brooches - Bees in Marcasite, & Blue John

Worth looking at their website - they have quite a connection with Chatsworth House & the Late Duchess of Devonshire & have recreated/reinterpreted several important pieces for an exhibition

It was the “no fly zone” that concerned me.

Well, that and the waste of €10m.

Ah, the hideous squelching as of a particularly obstinate drain being cleared… Fear not, it is the Resident Eejit, inhaling his Late Supper.
The sheer glamour of all this gets to me sometimes, you know ;- )
