So, who wants to help ... to frivol in the cellar? (Part 2)

[3Wells]

I have a mate with Bloodhounds

And a mate with border collies that work on mountain rescue

And the trail of sawdust is a good place to start

Exits stage right preceded by hounds and a black red and white carpet of collies

I prepared a very tasty and redolent prawn biryani, this evening, with the notion of tempting you back from your quest, Twellsy. Unfortunately, we scoffed the lot in your absence.

We’ve had another offer on our house and are flattered by the attention.

The timing of our friend’s funeral is such that we must cancel/reschedule our holiday which is proving difficult. We’ll bee there for her and her family, regardless.

Not sure that Twellsy eats prawns, Soo

I do though…

I do hope that you can reschedule your holiday. There is never a right time for a funeral, is there?

How is your poor friend’s husband, in the midst of all the madness?

@Carinthia

Not sure that Twellsy eats prawns

All part of my cunning plan…We enjoyed them, anyhoo and made sure to save some for Carinthia.

M’s husband is recovering from covid and his surgery and the loss of his Beloved as well as a human being might. He’s terribly deaf, so 'phone calls are a bit fraught.

[Carinthia]

Please, Dahlink. Both

Soo, many years ago I had to shout sympathy & thanks over the telephone to a profoundly deaf person & it remains seared on my memory.

on a day wot is promising to be Bastard Hot

though not as hot as tomorrow

[3Wells]

Enters stage right

Followed by a cart towed by elf and safety operatives rounded up by collies

The cart contains the trapeze and frame

One Twellsy is capering with glee as the trapeze is placed back in situ and reassembled

The collies are supervising and the Bloodhounds are lounging by

[HedgeSparrow]

Run for your lives! The wren is back and historically this garden has always been part of Wrendom.

[3Wells]

Snigger

I am safe with hounds and collies looking after me

[Fanta]

@3Wells

trapeze and frame

Frame? What was wrong with the Old Oak Tree?

[3Wells]

The elfin safety lot got an Emmur to do surgery on it

Hence the sawdust

It will recover in a few years I believe

[Carinthia]

Bloody Ell

Capering…

Have had crunchy peanut butter on toast to keep me strength up…

Chicken thighs later, & the apple & onion salad combo

Paneer masala, cauli and potato sufficed. I’ve spent far too long trying to put together an outfit for a wedding in just over a week’s time and I am missing my Muse. Nothing to be done about it - I’ll be dressed like a dog’s dinner but I’ll not look like a tart.

Soo xx

[Carinthia]

Ooh, please tell me the options, Darling. I’ll Muse from here. It’s time that we had an Frocks Fest.

For the last 2 weddings I have altered garments wot I already have, in the spirit of Upcycling.

No Nat for the Bristol Museum wedding, but me 'eadpiece was an triumph.

I wore the same Gabor suède platform sandals for both, as they are so comfortable.

@Carinthia

tell me the options

There aren’t any, Sweetheart. I’ll show the deffo bits of kit, gladly, but I have no time to change anything. Mañana!

[Carinthia]

Gin.

You will look lovely, I’m sure.
