A shame he did not turn up, I would have enjoyed a chat with @Crashy_Time about the effect of the SDLT holiday in propping up the market. Still, it was nice talking to all the others and jumping into the pool at midnight. Thanks again @Mutton_Geoff , good music, though, as you promised, rather loud.3

, I had no alternative but to drink myself into a stupour in one of the walk in pantries, off the scullery in the servants quarters. I fell asleep before midnight & missed the firework display.
And it wasn't me with the tomato ketchup, though I did have a minor mishap with the wasabi, which was quite painful!
Happy New Year everyone.
PS who drank all my Galliano?

Who ran off with my fluffy handcuffs ?Miss A was looking for them first thing this morning, and will be most disappointed if they are not returned.Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

I then sent Winston to get some more from the cellar, you took one swig and realised it tasted like old brake fluid and left it on the table in the library.I'm still tidying up and have a list of "lost and found" I'll be publishing later. If Freebear has the key to the handcuffs, I'd appreciate it so Mrs Mutton can get the breakfast sorted.There is a makeshift "Do Not Disturb" sign on a bedroom in the West Wing (handwritten on the back of an S21 notice). It's too early to knock on the door just yet.

As there's so much Galliano left, would you mind brining it to my house cooling party. If anyone wants to sit down during the festivities, or stay over, you'd better come on Tuesday as removal men will be here first thing Wednesday to load most of the furniture and all but one bed.
We can carry on partying on Wednesday night though. Help me finish off the booze and empty the freezer before removers return Thursday morning. Please be extra careful to avoid the usual spillages. I don't want to have to recompense our buyers for red wine/tomato ketchup damage to carpets.
No casino allowed as gambling is prohibited by the Conservation area covenant and sorry, but we closed our (outdoor unheated) pool in September. There is enough rainwater on top of the winter cover to dip your toes in if you crack the ice first. Just watch out for the frogs
