   Oh yes, worry about the b****y floors! No word of sympathy for me as I freeze to death and ruin a perfectly good pair of ankles ……. and I’ll pass on the ball protector as well!

   [ahem .....a bespoke pair of socks would be handy though - ta]

   Underfloor heating? …… mmmmmmm. Perhaps I’ll rip everything out and start again ……….. NOT.

   [One ordinary one and one large enough to fit over my ball and chain ...... obviously]

   How PERFECT, dear sis! You’re brilliant. A knitted cover would not only be useful and practical, it would be fashionable and quite fetching.

   What color do you think?

   I always thought the ball & chain came 30 somewhat years ago, you know, when you got married to the Terrible one?!

   I think it’s a ceramic piece we’ve got called the Jongleur – horribly expensive but terribly amusing don’t you know …..

   …… can you reach the milk? – the fridge is over there ……

    hmmmm.. a little “passion pink” nail polish on those toenails will brighten up those otherwise pale feetsies….

    The jewelry goes well with the ensemble…TG has fabulous taste !!

    70’steen.. can I help you knit an “over boulder floor protector” ?

    [reply to this comment]
    daddyp replied: January 31st, 2009 at 8:59 am

    Enough with the knitting.
    My footsies are very pale at the moment – I need some sun. I would appreciate it if you could make some arrangements – ta very much.

    If it’s been 36 days since she gifted you with that incredibly fashionable treasure, how do you expect us to believe you’ve made her 637 cups of tea? That works out to about 17.69 cups per day!

    Hmmm.

    - People tend to drink tea to calm themselves/wind down.
    - TG does have to live with and put up with you 24/7
    - It all makes sense now.

    Actually, I’ll rephrase my comment now.

    In the last 36 days, you’ve only made your lovely goddess 17.69 cups of tea per day? You my dear old git… are slipping. She must be terribly distraught. Perhaps, as your loving fracretary, I should arrange for a palm-frond-wielding-grape-feeding-and-strapping-young-handsome-assistant to come in and help make enough tea to calm poor TG’s nerves?

    I don’t mind. Really. I bet TG would actually even send me real shoes once in a while…

    daddyp replied: January 31st, 2009 at 9:03 am

    ….. and what’s worse young Fraccy, those calculations reflect the number of beverages consumed by two people. The TG very graciously allows me to enjoy the odd cuppa or two for which I am extremely grateful.
