Reflecting on the "over friendly attack" on my person by the WI "ladies"at the annual christmas dinner,I have reached the conclusion that they drank me into being George Clooney,the imbibing of much alcohol can give the impression that people are more presentable than is actually the case,but strangely enough the reverse seemed to be the outcome in this particular instance.
Sandra the pom was a picture of what a demure young lady should be, as we conversed on the webcam yesterday,her copious imbibing of Australia's finest white wine seemed to have little effect and she even offered up a new nom de plume for her SUPER MODEL role",Chardie Toblerone"which does have an antipodean flavour to it,however more care must be taken to remove traces of chocolate from around the side of the mouth,as this will show up badly on photo shoots, and she has prepared a lovely fruit cake for my arrival,but I think most of it will have been consumed before then, I am just a little concerned about the quality of the ingredients as I am led to believe they were purchased at the local Lidl Wholefood Emporeum down under.
Today we shopped for Christmas veg in Mablethorpe and Louth, we bumped into Mick and Montmorency,fellow South Yorkshire emigres in Lord Brothers outlet mall, they also were veg
shopping and are staying here beside the seaside beside the sea, for the festive season,rather than visiting relatives in Rotherham,the roads are clearing making driving a little safer and Mick was driving up to Grimsby on leaving Lord Bros,I think for last minute shopping.
The time is now 4.30 pm and pitch black outside,I mention this because I am informed today is the vernal equinox (shortest day) and it starts to get lighter from tomorrow.
