Penrose is back, fast asleep now. I assume he's had a heavy lunch. The bolt croppers are here if you need them Iva.
I've given them a good clean, Lord knows what he's been doing with them.
V6, someone from the Bay of Biscay Borough Council has been trying to contact you. He reckons you've bombed one of their carpets or something? I said you were on a Sherpa baiting break in the Himalayas and wouldn't be back anytime soon.

That's about right yes!
And ill probably buy myself some frivolous knick-knack, ive gotten better at being critical of my spendings, which is a good thing, but there is no point in denying myself every single joy...
Now the question, plastic crack or cheap(ish) scotch?
Neither, chap. No good will come of plastic cracks - the Verger had one of those inflatable sheep thing, the bloody thing kept going down on him. He complained to Amazon and the next thing was armed police breaking the Rectory door down. Dreadful business.And ill probably buy myself some frivolous knick-knack, ive gotten better at being critical of my spendings, which is a good thing, but there is no point in denying myself every single joy...

Scotch? Well, up to you, but I'd stick with the Absinthe. Scotch is like supermarket shandy by comparison. I believe there's a Dutch version called 'Arnhem Bridgehead' that's worth a go.
'Titanic' is the best, at first you think it'll be fine, it takes a while to go down and before you realise you're incontrovertibly not designed to survive the ingress it's too late. You get photographed 100 years later where you ended up and some bd nicks your valuables and sells them.

Blehh, not feeling good. All cold/snotty/shivery mess. Gone back to bed. Wake me up when I'm better please.
Pull yourself together man, we've got a busy weekend ahead, what with the Pelican fancyiers show on Sunday.
How is the business plan for the tadpole farm coming along? I've forgotten whose project it is but the last meeting with potential backers was a disaster.
"We're seeking backing for a tadpole farm in the village."
"Have you thought this through? Is there much call for tadpoles? Is it seasonal?"
We have to get it right this time.

To clarify, Plastic Crack is what we in the business call Lego, because its Plastic, and well... addictive as crack.. And the fixes dont get cheaper, you keep wanting more and bigger sets...Scotch?

a €10 box doesnt really do it for me these days, and if i really want to have a full evening fix, id better be prepared to drop a 3 digit number at the

If you get short of Sherpa indicator lenses, or bumpers, they are easily interchanged with (or borrowed from) those fitted to the Panther De Ville, which is also a handy source of doors for your Austin Maxite no wonder they take them to wilderness areas to lose them.
