Lots of mentions for good chums and family, comment on politicians' failure, more fun than seriousness and tinctures for all...

Welsh hillsiders' quandary...
There is much furious foaming furore about Welsh schools not being academically on the same 'level playing field' as English schools today.
I have to inform everyone, that nowhere in Wales, which is a delightful country with lovely, friendly people, is there a single level playing field!
Michael Green decided that Welsh rugby players had one leg shorter than the other, so that they could play on their gorgeous hillsides and valleys and, for Scrobs, having played the game there for many years, there is general agreement on that score!

Neigh Lad...
This latest furore concerning meat in burgers really gets my goat!
It's another example of the nanny state, expecting people to actually find meat in food, especially those things made from old tyres and motorway service station plastic gloves!
If I was a vegetarian, I'd eat my hat, but I wouldn't because it's a natty leather one with a rather fetching plaited two-tone band around the brim...
Give me a Lion bar any day!

Are you sitting comfortably...then I'll begin...
Daphne Oxenford was the hugely long name of the person who would start to tell us something, when the music stopped. My dear sister and I would hang on to every word when she spoke with those beautiful tones, and I've never forgotten her.
There used to be a short piano prelude as well, which still rings...
I'm so looking forward to getting our grandchildren into a state where we can do half what this lovely lady did for me.
