Looks better from a distance than close up, needs constant upkeep, still does the job though but not quite what it was nor indeed could be with more effort

We wouldn’t want an Ashley Lawrence of a yard… it would look too masculine The builders looked at us sideways when we asked for a Colin Firth of a back yard… ‘fraid not madam, what we’re lookin’ at ‘ere is more of a Pammie, in need of constant work, looking cheap but costin’ a fortune’ In feminine terms how would you describe your own back garden?

WoE

As to my standards, I’m nothing if not civilized

Pushing our masonry efforts to one side (and isn’t it just the Pamela Anderson of all yards… difficult to know how it stands up and looking a bit rough round the edges, but will no doubt attract a crowd ) … we are stunned to hear that you are a three napkin a day man, sets you apart from the kitchen roll wipers! Man of your standing in the community ought to have linen, possible six or nine…. monogrammed of course.

WoE

As to these linen botchelism rags - I’m fully aware of what linen napkins are and how to wash them but I’m not going to wash 3 a day which is what my standards of personal hygiene would demand.
I’m also aware that those who use them do not sanitize them after each use - hence the microbe issue ~ shudder

Yes, we have come to the same conclusions… you are positively the squariest, peggiest, peg this side of the moon … we at the Coven salute you

We shall acknowledge Sunday by taking coffee and a leisurely glance at your involvement with the Middle East ~ since we have worked jolly hard on the exterior masonry today, we’re due a treat!

Linen napkins then… are you getting your textiles muddled up? Linen, dear boy, if good quality, can be boiled in the cauldron. Tell us please that any disposable examples that enter LCG are not made of that scratchy grease proof stuff so reminiscent of post war lavatory paper

Good health,

My presence in Grimsby is perhaps the town’s most notable asset
I’ve travelled the length and breadth of the country and each have found myself in exactly the same square peg situation as I am here just in another location.

I’m also something of a square peg in the middle-east it seems - full details in tomorrow

I’ll pass on the listeria rags, otherwise known as linen napkins, if you don’t mind.
Their akin to hankerchiefs (which should only be worn in the top pocket of one’s jacket !)
Are you trying to poison me with your bug spreading suggestions

The Witches are fond of the Simpson’s scripts and often allow ourselves a chortle… but a Bart blanket is bordering on the obsessional Despite your limpet like attachment to Grimsby isn’t it time to admit that you are a square peg in a round hole? Or, instead of grumbling all the time, tell us some of the good things about living in the area.

Perhaps it’s time for you to escalate to the heady heights of owning a washable linen napkin?

WoE
