So, who wants to help ... to rattle on in the cellar?

A lady who was very dear to me was called Doris

And she was called “a real lady” by all who were lucky enough to know her

So Doris is much too refined to have at the grey visitor with a stick

Now to proper things

Bacon butties folk?

Fresh loaf Madame Chatelaine?

I reckon herons are called things like Baz and Wayne, and occasionally Waynetta.

I thought it probably wasn’t original to me but but it was a bit early in the morning to check.

In Bristole, every woman has a friend called Reen. You can hear 'em in gangs on the buses or in the pubs, having a right old Reen-up:

“Our Reen says…”
“I dunno, but it happened to Reen.”
“Reen got a blue one and she loves it.”

Short, I assumed, for Maureen, Irene, Doreen, Noreen, Fluorine and Stergene.

… aaaaaaaand, flop.

AND I washed the towels, on a special “towel wash” which takes 2hrs 50m. We’ll see.

AND made French onion soup. Though I’m far from convinced the onions were actually French.

I guess the butties are done. I don’t mind. I’ll just have a sit, he… zzzzzzzzzz.
