Ho dear MorticiaaaAAA! I'm really sorry to learn of your kidney infection and do hope that you overcome it quickly so that you become happy and ungrumped again. Missing the concert must be teeth gnashingly and spittingly annoying for you. You have my permission to swear - loudly.
These slugs/snails of yours must be tough ones. Have you tried crushed sharp horticultural grit round your pots and plants - or the beer trap idea? Up here we've had such a plague of snails in the last six weeks that we've had to use slug/snail pellets to defeat them. So far we've collected five full buckets of the invaders. Is this a result of climate change? Will we soon see giant snails? Aaaarrrgh!
Get better soon Mort. That's an order to you and your kidneys!
Two hugs from
S'wave.

Grrr. I am a seriously Grumpy Old Woman today. I can`t go to the Richard/Ollie concert tonight because I have another bluddy kidney infection and a raging temperature that won`t go down. I was looking forward to it and seeing people again. Grrrrrrrr. AND I`ve just noticed that the 5 chilli plants that I potted up earlier this week have been completely slugged. There aren`t even any stalks left. And they`ve nobbled my Nemesia! ARGGHHHHH!!
Grump, rant, grump, mutter, mutter .......
Hope you're feeling better soon Morticia.  Sorry about your chilli plants. I know it's like shutting the stable door to suggest it but Copper Tape's the answer.  MJ xxx |

Merely corroborative detail, intended to give artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative.

Sorry to hear about your kidneys Mort.
At least it was a rather good Dr Who tonight.
(Hope you got to see it and I'm not just rubbing it in)

Yes, bad luck Mort. You poor old thing. ('Oi, less of the old!') Get well quick. I'm a bit grumpy cos I'd have liked to go to the concert tonight featuring Richard and Ollie, and attended by various of us - but I have to - wait for it - BABYSIT!! Grrr. Grump. (At least I get to play computers, games, and eat a lovely pizza left for me!  ) |

It's not really a baby - it's a ten-year-old boy! But he still needs to have someone in the house while his parents are out. It's easy really - I just ask him to go to bed, he goes, I sit around playing with his dad's computer and video games, and eat their food. It's a boys' night out! Sort of.

Presumably he's going to fix Captain Jack's vortex manipulator thingy with his sonic screwdriver to go back to 2007, where he knows that Mister Saxon (anag. Master no 6) is going to be (presumably with the TARDIS). There were rumours that Derek Jacobi or John Simm where going to be the Master, but I really wasn't expecting them both to be him! Nice. Hmmm... I'm obviously in the wrong room. My girlfriend's parents got me a dalek card for my birthday. Along with a ten pound note to go towards a bottle of whisky, they obviously know me too well. |
