Yellow. But no matter, I'll remove the wrapping and post it back.
Well, since you've already gone to the trouble of wrapping it... It'd be rude of me not to accept it.

Today has seen me tend to the Wife and her hangover. When she suffers, she really suffers. Takeaway tonight is a given, I've just got back from the gym and if we have Indian or Chinese I can walk down to them, order, have a couple of pints in the local whilst waiting and them walk back.

After my encounter with the Corniche yesterday I've found myself looking at them in the classifieds today. Not sure I'd suit one though - it would give me an excuse to buy the Panama hat I've always wanted.

They think that there are only 38 left on the road and 62 knocking about in the UK. I know of two here in Guernsey.

The chap from Yodel had some trouble getting it in the back of his van, but he assured me it would be delivered on time.

Oh good lord this is so out of control. It was all arranged: you and JAYB (TT's answer to Ronnie and Reggie) were meeting iva, FB and me at the Rubbing House in Epsom for TT's 4th Birthday Bash and Worldwide Virtual Drink Up. I arrived promptly with a box of shot glasses only for it to emerge that I had dreamt up the whole thing! So, after a drink and a meal and another drink I went back to the lonely garret Tolworth Travelodge where I found my phone battery was nearly dead and I went back to work to charge it a bit to fulfil my obligations vis a vis the Virtual Drink Up and have my taxi bill entered in the Guinness Book of Records.

Anyway, to cut a medium length story a bit shorter, we've run out of shot glasses.

There are moves afoot to have a new batch engraved when the TT coffers allow. (Haymarket's offer of support would have been derisory if I'd asked so I didn't ask.) So, when it has weighed sufficiently heavily on whoever borrowed the reptile fund and the next time I look in the biscuit tin in the Butler's Pantry I find it has been repaid, more will be ordered.

One of the problems is that this year's anniversary souvenir is proving more popular than last year's. One can never tell.

I can't decide if "Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit" is a really quite good film or a massive kick in the goolies for the dear departed Tom Clancy. confused

It was very entertaining but has absolutely fk all to do with the books grumpy

Can we not get an official TT sponsor outside of the remit of Haymarket?

Maybe TT Palace Hotels?

http://tthotels.com/hotels/suntopiapalace/

Or

TT Foods?

Just a thought...............

That level of seepage isn't normal, and of course the swelling is a worry.

I would see a specialist immediately.

It matters not that the llama seemed symptom free.

My dear chap! I'm overwhelmed. And thank you, but no. Here's my thinking, as it was my idea I'll send them as long as there's demand unless demand becomes redicklious. And, judging by last year, demand will dwindle on its own and it will be fine. After that, if there is agreement on retrospectively producing shot glasses for years 1, 2 and 3, then I will have these done and supply them at cost.

What do you reckon?
