Only in the Christmas Panto.I hope you liked the candles. Apparently some idiots turned up wanting me but pressed code red on Bommas entry system. The Cubs made short work of them - bomma you MUST put a sign up saying there's a pride of lions in your grounds, it's made a right mess of the Petunias and you know Petunia Major has her GCSE's next week she needs to be revising not picking up entrails.
Ive resorted to watching Sounds of the 60s and 70s Ripping good tunes, 
THE Shadows You can't beat a bit of Hank Marvin 
With the rest of the Towers' occupants absorbed in air guitar, Dicky turns his attention to the serious issue of the 2017 Marmalade. He has 4 lbs of Seville oranges, 8 lbs of sugar and exclusive use of the kitchen until about 2 o'clock.
The make-one-singe-batch-this-time-you-idiot method is being attempted in various pots simultaneously in the hope of rationalising the cooking process. This was the lesson learned during the Christmas Cake debacle. Instead of researching the cooking times for cooking all three cakes at once (one for us, one for my mum and one for Uncle Ron), Dick the Genius cooked them one at a time and monopolised the oven for fourteen hours.
The blip on the National Grid's usage graph is still be investigated.
If anyone wants me, I'm in the outhouse ferreting about for jars.

One more thing, Tesco have this year labelled the oranges 'Marmalade Oranges' with 'Traditional bitter oranges from Seville' as a subtext in much smaller writing. Inside the label - I swear this is true - it reads, 'Why not try - Homemade Marmalade'.
Why else would you be buying them?
And isn't 'Why not try - Homemade Marmalade' a question?

I just got a new credit card to replace one that is about to expire, and the 3 digit security code is 000. For some reason I am irrationally excited by this, and can't wait to pay for something over the phone!
On the other hand, if they just issue them in sequential order, I've just missed out on 007.

Bob Marley would be a good idea but it would clash with the Air Guitar booming from the Main Hall. If, as I suspect, the chaps are throwing themselves around and posturing wildly as they pretend to be their guitar heroes, could you remind them of their great age and frailty? We don't need any more lawsuits for a while.

That trumps the 500 I had that I was really chuffed with.
