Is it ‘Transito’? Just kidding, but it really is a girl’s name. It refers to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary into heaven.
No, thank goodness! My middle name is not a girl’s name, anyhoo! Good nights, Janie and all.

More Champagne, Darling, or Gin?

The Comedienne, Janey Godley, makes great play of the Scots or Irish Mammy calling their children in using all of their Christian names.
Posh had an Uncle who didn’t realise that his name was Robert until he was 10 or 11.
He was the youngest of 11 children & heard his name as ‘ShurrupRobert’ almost from the day of his birth…
We were choking with laughter when she told that one.

Want to borro0w my broomstick?
And my flying bloomers*
My kicking tackety boots are no use to you as they are too small for you
My current favourite skirt is a long black velvet number that works well on the broom as it tucks into the bottom of the bloomers
*Red flannelette with a tasteless black lace edging
I’ll try to squeeze my size 7s into your size 7s, Twellsy, but I’ll choose me own knickers, thank-you.

I am a size 6!

5 and a half in pointe shoes
“Is that flying garb rated for aerobatics, ma’am?”
Aerodynamics and pockets
Pockets are useful for essentials like my Swiss army knife and food and bottles of gin
At least one reserve emergency gin is kept up my knicker leg
Today is Day 59 of 2024. So far, it has rained on 48 of them … and it’s rained a LOT on 33 of those …
This babble about irrelevancies - shoe size, rainfall, questionable lingerie and ultrasound- is not succeeding in distracting me from the week’s burning question
But thank you for trying [grinnity]
OK
What IS the burning question Gus?
How to light yer fag when yer lighter’s broke and you have no matches.
Propane if you need energy per mass, butane if you need energy per volume.
What short memories some of you have…
I always keep matches in the house
If I lob em your way Gus will that help?
Sorry TFM I got confused while working out flour ratios and yeast/surgary water quantities to make bread
