I have been reading the Brentford triangle trilogy books
I find more humorous observations of life with each reading of said books

Robert Rankin seemed an excellent bloke when I met him, but his books are too relentlessly funny for me.

Drive carefully, Carinthia. You’ll look sensational in that suit and I am hoping that others will run around after you, so that you won’t become exhausted.
We bees are preparing for the arrival of the prodigal. Mr Bee is vacuuming (displacement activity, I call it) while I am sitting comfortably on the beely bot. I’ll clean the lavs, I s’pose, although that would provide more enjoyment if they were sparkly. More food and drink will be bought, this afternoon.

A textbook example of “doing exactly what it says on the tin”.
As used I. Alas the state of my skin these days largely precludes such activity

That’s a bugga, joe. Eczema? Not that it is any of my business.
Thwumping bread is good for the soul, and one’s enemies, who get strangled slightly more gently (wiv floury prints round their jugulars and carotids to help out the slower type of Plod)

‘pestered by a Norwegian folk fiddler’
That’s what R3 just said.
Grieg was the pesteree, for them as likes Facts.

It’s none of mine, either. Whatever the reason, I’m sorry that your skin is giving you problems, joe. I had eczema as a young person and it was the bane of my life.

I wasn’t ignoring you yesterday evening, but I arrived to chaos, & it took some settling…
Local Daughter was here & screaming like a Banshee at her father
Her partner was plumbing in the Noo dishwasher
I made Prawn Cocktails before Strictly & then cooked Steak, Mushrooms & Potatoes afterwards
I am loading up with medication before we go out this afternoon…

Did he deserve it? Enquiring minds need to know.
I very much like the vision of Grieg being pestered by a Norwegian folk fiddler – I wonder how he (or possibly she) manifested. Knocking on the door at all hours? Playing plaintively under his window of an evening in the snow hoping for admission? Turning up uninvited on picnics?
Joe, I am sorry about the state of your skin. Sending a a calaminely thought at it, that’s what I am.

Y’see, that counterbalance suggests the partner is not unused to this.
I assume this was done “IN BLOCK CAPITALS”.
