Dicky, how long has been since you kindly gave us our Trivial towers mugs?
IIRC that was TT5. I forgot this year and TT6 was Trivial Towers Anniversary Ale.

Do you sense there is a drive towards more mugs?
I was sat here drinking out of my my mug thinking..'Oooooh, it's been a long time'.

Every working day since I got it. I'm on my second mug but it still counts in a triggers broom way.

Anyway..

..I'm being trivial.

The rescue truck? It's parked up on the village green in Trivton Regis at the mo, the old beast certainly made light work of the picket fence.

I've not been over here for a good while, I think I'll have a sharpener in the Plucked Pheasant whilst Dicky goes about his business.
Lucky you.

I'm at the B&L.

Frank is having a 'Vegan Extravaganza' lunch menu as it's half term. Bloody Lynda McCartney sausages, Tofu burgers & Lentil Bake!! Mmmm So yummy......... Not!!

Currently 89% humidity in Singapore, thermostat set at 20 degrees C.

That's the thermostat in my hallway, not Singapore. I expect they'd have more than one anyway.
Spreadsheet updated. Thanks

If there is sufficient interest I'll see about having some more made.

Mr R was either being kind or he's forgotten that buyers had to stump up about £15 per mug last time to make it happen. It's the world shortage of bone china that I've just made up that's to blame.

The mug people have emailed about ten times a day since Battert's order so they may give a discount if we word our enquiry carefully.

I hope it's more successful than the 2012 'Vegetarian Hog Roast' day. He had a good number of complaints about that, especially as the pig had to be slaughtered in the First Aid tent beforehand.

Rabbi Goldfinch was quite nonplussed when he popped in for a bar meal several days later and found out the full story behind the 'Reconstituted Chicken Substitute'...

Those poor young things! Will they ever recover from the hog roast? The adults' cries of, "Come and look at the piggy!" and the faces of the children when confronted with a half eaten carcass will haunt me forever.

Don't know chap, I've not seen him around for a day or so. Is that his phone you've got there? Give him a call and ask him...


Anyhow, the TT mug business. I'd be interested in buying a couple, one for me and one for Penrose.

He had a Reservoir Dogs one for his evening Horlicks but I think he swallowed it.

He says you're not speaking Pelican. You're speaking an obscure dialect of Old Flamingo.

It`s Battert`s special recipe Coffee.

I`d love to know how Mr Roper gets it in a mug. Last time I had some it was served by the slice!

When the coffee percolator's bubbling away, I've often noticed Battert dragging a sack of Cornflour around. Something to do with reducing spillages, according to him?

Anyhow, I wonder if anyone can help me here please? One of Grandbomma's milk teeth has finally capitulated to incessant 'wiggling' and is now wrapped in a piece of tissue on a bookshelf.

Does anyone happen to know what the current Tooth Fairy tariff is?
