    Good Evening loverly NSDers smiley-love023.gif

    I would like to know what Igor has put in the latest batch of pickle, I arrived out of hospital yesterday. The nurses would like to know why I glow in the dark and my consultant is intrigued by the strange odour coming from my toenails.

    I have, however, grabbed NSD #14 today. There ain't much to spend your money on in hospital.

    Never mind, freeby, one of Mrs Doyle's famous cups of tea will see you right, it is said her tea kills 100% of all known germs.

    Did Igor wash the cups? Or did Hubert lick them clean again?

    Mrs Doyle is deeply offended that you should cast aspersions on the state of her cups. Only the finest bleach is used to remove the tea stains.
