"You know what would make this scene more poignant? Some Spanish guitar music."

Oh dear, sweet Lord on a pogo stick. I’m sure you’re all now well-acquainted with the fact that for someone who is, objectively speaking, really very clever, I am amazingly, inconceivably stupid most of the time. It is the tiny tragedy of my otherwise joyous life. I do stupid things all the time. It’s like there’s a tiny bomb of stupidity located

I should have learnt by now. Next time I see your wallet anywhere that isn't your current bag choice, I shall put it back where it should be.

Poor Liss... what a complete stealth-Mondaying that was. Boohiss to the universe and its trickery-knavishness.

Oooh, with you having watched Phantom (trust you watched the beautiful extras with Cliff Richard etc - or whatever it was) may I take it home with me tomorrow? I miss it... *weeps into hankie in corner*

Also, have you any need of eggs for this evening's repast? Because I have four & the box says they are best before tomorrow and I have Failed To Bake and ARGH! Aussi, is there a dress-code? As it is a Proper Grown-Up Dinner Party, I mean? (And because any change to wear a frock or swishy skirt is not to be missed, evidently...)

In re clothes, tbh I'm going to be coming straight from work and thus in jeans, so wear whatever you like, frocks included.

Eggs would actually be handy, actually, thanks.

And yes, of course you may take it away with you. We were saying that only yesterday...

[xanantha]

Right, pyjamas it is then, splendid...

Will bring eggs along with me & swap them for my Andrew Lloyd-Bach DVD Of JOY.

Eggs will keep a long time after their best before date. As long as they sink when you put them in a bowl of cold water, they should be ok - if they float, chuck them out!

Liss for Poet Laureate?

Mondays are BAD and evil. They should be slept through. But good call on the cheque book front. I only found mine yesterday after a 3 month absence... I would be screwed frankly, in that situation!

The poem made me laugh until I cried. Possibly not the impact you were aiming for. Poor Liss. Well done for sneaking past the guards at Waterloo. I am v. impressed at your stealth!
