HAAAAAAAACK! Oh dear, this is getting worse. I'm going to see Doctor Gleadle.

I've left Battert in charge of the trolleys. Can't see too much going wrong there.

HAAAAAAAAAAAACK! Excuse me.

A regular theme on the covers of my wife's magazines is 'Body Goals.' I can't bear to look inside. Have they no respect for human dignity? We always used piles of jumpers and jackets.

I thinl i may have just met Batterts Scottish cousin/brother/inset other family member, as we were leaving a shop an elderly wisened chap held the door open for me, as I passed and said thanks he muttered "Aye, I reckon ye're welcome right enough, ye'll be a needin yer coot oot thier soon mind!!" Now either he knew that being a thick blithering southern idiot I'd forgotten it, or as I've alluded to, He's a Battery family member and they've communicated at some point, either way I just nodded, muttered "yes you may be right" and took my leave!!!!

Could well have been Henry 'Help Ma Boab' McKlintock, second cousin of Battert. His Grandfather died at Al Alamein (food poisoning from an iffy curry apparently).

Works in a bakery in the village of Kinell. Almost certainly the same chap.

Just looked him up on McLinkdin. He has a part time job as a bottler in the distillery and sometimes does a bit behind the counter of Bargain Booze. Depends where you saw him I suppose.

Aahhhhh that would explain it, we'd stopped in Kinell on the way back from Stirling, just to pick up some provisions, we found ourselves in Bargain Booze perusing their offerings!!!

Would anyone like an anti-biotic? Dr. Gleadle says I have to take the whole course but frankly I doubt I'll last that long.

HAAAAAAAACK! Oh dear. I'm sorry, please excuse me. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!

Not far off old chap. Feels like I've swallowed a litre of Jet Fuel and smoked 200 Rothmans in the last hour.

I maybe have, but I'm buggered if I can remember when. Probably the last time I was in Corfu at a guess.

How the bloody hell did you do that?

I have made very healthy butternut squash soup (4 servings) tomato soup (another 4 servings) and leek and potato soup (2 servings) and spent roughly 10% of that

It's a simple equation old chap:-
Wife+Baxters shop×large selection= £30 spent!!! smile

Sounds reasonable to me. The chap who last piloted the High Speed Hot Dog Trolley is still hanging upside down in the Burns Unit. Traction apparently.

Speaking of which, I must take a bunch of Azaleas over to Mrs B. Poor old girl still hasn't recovered properly.

HAAAAAAAACK! Oh bother, I'm sorry.
