Scene: Ennessdee Towers, on a wet and windy day. The sound of car tyres is heard scrunching over gravel as a sleek, black limousine glides to a halt outside the front door.
A small, slightly twisted figure in chauffeur uniform climbs out of the driver's seat and walks round to the back of the car. From the boot he extracts several large, expensive suitcases and carries them into the front hall of the house. Difficult to do whilst also carrying a battered briefcase full of highly polished chefs knives, not to mention the rucksack full of a rapidly expanding recipe book collection, including the latest Mrs Beeton Goes Paleo With The Naked Hairy Bikers.
Having safely deposited the luggage in the hall he returns to the car and opens the rear passenger door. An elegant figure climbs gracefully out, clad in apricot and lime silk culottes, scarlet basque and purple velvet cloak, a vision of grandeur right down to the green diamante-studded Jimmy Chew wellies with the kitten heels.
A sheepish-looking NSD number 5 scuttles across into the house and dives into the Cauldron of Doom.
Yes, the Nargle is back!!!One life - your life - live it!0 -
Great to see you back, Nargle
NSD 5 for me today0 -
Hi folks!
I was computer-less for a day,so no updating done,but am now reeling under the sleek elegance of my new pooter...an iMac is what I have chosen on the advice of a friend.My old computer was really on its last legs,so I'd resigned myself to having to dip into my savings...then last week I got a large refund of money from having paid too much taxes for last year.Ok,I've gone slightly over budget,but I'm hoping that the excess can be 'absorbed' by my next paycheck.
Had a quick scroll through the posts and will update later.
Nargle,glad to see you back in one piece....I'm equally glad that your inimitable style has suffered no setback due to being pumped full of drugs...from your appearance I see that you toned it down a bit in fact. :rotfl::rotfl:
Knit Witch spent hours knitting you a chic and practical yellow and mauve fluorescent bobble hat with optional leopard skin trim and furry dice pompoms,and you didn't wear it?
She will be upset....0 -

marmite- your new computer is so good you're posting twice? (I think that is just showing off)
Please reassure Knitwitch about the hat - I honestly thought it was a bed hat and am saving it to wear with my winceyette nightlife and bovver boots.One life - your life - live it!0 -

Taking it nice and easy, they whipped my appendix out by the keyhole surgery method yesterday. I could have come home last night but I was too sleepy, so a little overnight B & B courtesy of the NHS. Excellent care, wonderful staff. The bruising has now come out on my abdomen and I am still full of gas (TMI !) but that is to be expected. No driving for two weeks or heavy lifting for six. OH is doing the catering today and tomorrow but I will start doing more Friday, within limits of course. In the meantime it is nice to have DS on tea making duty!One life - your life - live it!0
