What cheeses me off

Just found our water heater has a gas leak -lpg. We are rural so it might end up a cold water Christmas. Probably needs the heater replaced.

It must be the day for plumbing issues. Our plumber came out within the hour and said he will fix it by the end of the week. Our rural guys are fab. Our water heater last year stopped Saturday morning and by Saturday night it was replaced. Same plumber.

But MrsK relates the warnings they were given before school dances (hers was an all-girls school) to watch out when dancing with young men, as if they had very shiny shoes, as they would try 'see' things in the reflections

If they had knickers on, so what?

I broke a plastic piece on the pool filter last night. No proper part available around here so I have bodged up a temporary repair. It was nice laying in the son trying to fix it when the temperature is on its way to 43.4 C.

If they had knickers on, so what?

In olden days, a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking.
But now, God knows,
Anything goes.
Good authors too who once knew better words
Now only use four-letter words
Writing prose.
Anything goes.

Jacket update. I talked about the jacket issue with my butler yesterday (yes my butler) and at lunchtime when I came back from today’s excursion, there was a jacket on my bed, unrequested.

It would be rude to turn up such a nice gesture, so I’m currently sitting in the bar with the jacket.

What are those nice nibblies you ordered for Jacket? They look really nice. Is the second one an arancini?

Nightly canapés at 6 pm brought around the various bars and decks. Yes a little arancini but the others I couldn’t really recall but they are very nice
