The Limousine was sent to the WI to deliver the stale sandwiches Battert had left over from the last naturist weekend do.

Morning.

Went up to my other house yesterday to check it out before the meeting with the insurers on Tuesday.

Was trying to fire up the boiler, ended up smashing my skull off the corner of the garage door instead, and managed to bleed on everything. All of the things.

I'm an uncle as of last night though. Need to go visiting this afternoon.
Congratulated Doogz, pray tell are you an uncle to a male or a female?

He mentioned uncle, therefore the child is male. Had the child been female, he would have said he is now an aunt.

Correct.

Ah, I see. In Germany the convention is that the older relative is the dominant relevance, a male will always be an uncle and a female an aunt.

A quick lunch was taken today due to the F1 race.

Big slab of aged sirloin steak, lots of saute pots, scallions, beef toms, mushrooms and to top it all off......Kale.

A new thingy from Waitrose. Baby kale with green beans and hazelnuts. Bloody lovely. Recommended. lick

Mrs C alerted me to the existence of a craft beer and wine shop in Newbury and suggested I bought myself a little something. May I say that the choice is excellent but one of my choices was not. Among six bottles of beer I bought two bottles of a Mexican beer called Death Becomes You. Twelve hours later, sitting on the khazi losing half my body weight, death didn't become me, but it was a close run thing. At least I'm forewarned for the second bottle.

As he wrapped my purchases, the lad in the shop, with a theatrical flourish, popped six complimentary beer mats into the bag.

"They're from the Stonehenge Brewery," he said.
"Thanks," I replied.
"Stonehenge," he continued pointing to the picture of Stonehenge on one of the mats. "It's near Salisbury."
"I know," I said. "I helped to build it."
