Thanks for the info about her Christmas cd, Diana. Yes, "Nights in the Alhambra" was on sale at the concert, along with USB pens with her image and with pre-loaded mp3 on them (!) lol.

 

I need to go and teach a bit of grammar to one of our constables here; particularly the meaning of possessive adjectives like 'my' ;-).

Auntie Mira,

Help!! It's all going pear shaped now! do you know of any lovely maidens in bungalows who need serenading?

Or maybe I should take up a new hobby. A life of contemplating my navel?

Yours in anguish,

Ray.

Dear auntie Bumcheeks,

It has been 24 hours since I ordered your product, the special potion remember? Nothing has arrived here yet. I would appreciate it very much if you could track this order and give me an estimated date and time of delivery.

I am getting impatient now. It will soon be 'Hoedown' night!

Thank you.

Ray

In view of recent developments, please cancel the potion. If that is not possible to cancel at this late stage, I'll give it to the spaniel.

Ray.

Hi Auntie:  We have a very similar recipe for out west here,  It's called Love Potion No. 9999.   The recipe is virtually the same except we substitute eye of gila monster for wolf bane and catclaw acacia for poison ivy.  But for the life of me, I can't remember the rhyme?!?
