Goodness

I’m with Mae West on that one

[soobee]

Sniggle. Yeah - it had nothing to do with it. Is the new Neff suitably baptised by fire?

Yours were triumphs, Soo, & I really enjoyed doing them

And when you saw my good everyday leather Aussie hat you asked what the hell I was wearing dear chatelaine

A good brim keeps my glasses dry in the all too frequent rain

[Carinthia]

I too have an leather Nat, Twellsy

Mine is, no surprise, black

It’s the way they are worn…

And my fascinators would keep no rain out but look gorgeous, all the same. Are we on the same page with this, Dearies? I may post photies if we are.

Anyhoo. Home-built pizzas were good and sliced stuffed Aldi olives were delicious in the accompanying salad.

Carinthia asks me to forward:
“Me in 2016 having my caricature drawn”

[Gus]

I look good in a cloche.

But then early cucumbers start emergin’ from me ears, which spoils the effect somewhat.

@Gus

I look good in a cloche.

We love you, Gus. Yon Carinthia looks a bit gorgeous in caricature, tbf.

Well, I’ll cart this beely body off to bed and consider photo-shoots, tomorrow.
Looking forward to joe’s oven exploits. Seriously my (it is mine) 29 year-old Neff is fab.
Good nights, Cellarites,

Morning all

Yup that caricature is wunderbarr

Heavy rain here for a change

I am feeling like Eeyore -gloomy
I am just so fed up of weather that is decidedly non - Summery and life in general

I am mooching off to my gloomy place

[soobee]

Oh, dear, Twellsy. Why go to your gloomy place when you can be here, instead?

[yawnity] Tseep tseepy tseep that hedgetrimmer started at 8.30 and is still going. I mean, it’s a nasty noise for me over here, but that poor blighter is right next to the thing…

So I shall 'ave a gin and sneer at 'im from up 'ere on me roof.

Now you see the bacon sandwich… ooops, and now you don’t. Just a slightly bulgy limpet.

Have you considered settin’ fire to it & usin’ the insurance to get a new one? Seems as though it would be less work, and you get all the fun of a major appliance fire. Wouldn’t take but a moment.

[Carinthia]

You bored, Birdie?

It was Late Aged Aunts, so isn’t worth a bean. We had it, as no-one wanted it after she died.
I only used it for bed linen & towels, until Mr C became ill & 2 loads of laundry were done every day for him.

When it finally dies, I may consider a heated airer, as less damaging to the environment. I cannot deny that it has been very useful though, particularly as putting washing outside is a bitovvan problem here.
