Oh Elsie

Sorry Elsie I know I promised to take you to the seaside – I will pick you up on the way back next week.

Veronica is not available.

A bit of a do

I have been invited to an extended party – Mabel Elizabeth is an undisclosed age next week together with her twin sister and they are having a shin dig. 

There are lots of people invited and we are celebrating in Derbyshire; so staying away is necessary.

Albert will be ok because I have baked and he needs to stay home to look after Elvis.

Back early December.

Art Gallery, Museum and a pub lunch

Shall I leave it at that or tell you more?

I might tell you the story of our day out in stages – we travelled many miles to Leeds; we did not notice the distance because we chatted all the way there.

We were in a museum where there was a dressing up box which Veronica had not seen – when she turned round I was wearing a  long, white,  curly  wig; looking like an elegant judge ………. she screamed and we were making so much noise were almost thrown out.

We were thrown out of an art gallery once for touching a painting.

Blogger information

According to the latest news on blogs you have to declare if you are advertising – of course I am! 

This is a promotion site for me and my lovely pal Veronica – non profit making and just for a laugh.

 

 

Ice Rink

I have just discovered there is an ice rink nearby; I hope that Veronica is not thinking of a skating adventure.

 

 

a message

Veronica communicated with me stating that we are catching an early bus – no further instructions?

 

Need to know

Tried to telephone Veronica but she is out of range again; I want to know if I need a lot of cash for our day out and Albert asked if I will return before it is dark?

I cannot answer his question at the moment.

Home early

Albert thinks I am unwell because I left home for a night out and returned the same day.

A bus trip

Veronica has decided that we will have a cultural day out on Tuesday, arriving by bus – she will not tell me where we are going.

 

Television

I was mentioned on television – I am so excited, so nearly famous!

 

 

 

Back from lunch

Typing not up to scratch, contact you tomorrow ………. must not fall asleep!

 Oh, yes had a splendid time.

 

 

 

Dustbins again

I have fallen out with Albert over the dustbins; he is insisting I learn how to put them out and when.
 
Enough I am out for lunch with a special friend – practising for lunch with Veronica next week!

 

Doubles

I have two sister-in-laws named Barbara now that is not a startling fact.

However, I have two cousins named Marge Allsop – Marge Clotilde Allsop lives in Halifax, Nova Scotia; I have yet to meet her but communicate on line.  Marge Wendalynne Allsop lives in Cambridge in New Zealand.

I have met Marge Wendalynne several times over the past twelve years and stayed with her and her husband Johnny Dwayne Allsop; Marge Wendalynne is a stunning blonde lady who likes horses and keeps her oven door closed with a broom.

…………. You wanted more, well you will have to wait; sorry.

Horoscope

My star sign today said I was nearer my goal …..  I am waiting!

Tied with a pink ribbon

I wrote to the BBC again, placed my letter in a large blue envelope and tied it with a pink ribbon – someone will notice me, surely?

Recipes

I needed a sardine recipe and contacted Veronica – she sent me a message three times saying she was in the bike shed. 

I am concerned now because she does not own a bike!

I will look for her tomorrow and get the proper story.

New Zealand and Australia

An opportunity has arisen for visits to New Zealand and Australia – should I take Albert or leave him at home to look after Elvis.

Veronica said I should take him to carry my suitcase.

 

Prize related

A mutual friend, Annabel just telephoned me and mentioned that normal people usually win a box of chocolates in a raffle – what does she mean?

A prize

Last year Violet Rose and I travelled to York for a Christmas event and I won a Christopher Guy chair (famous interior designer) the said chair is still covered by a blanket awaiting collection by an eBay buyer. 

We went to a similar event yesterday and I purchased two raffle tickets – Violet is standing by her telephone to see what I have won this year?

Worried

Veronica is sending me messages in triplicate (on email, facebook and on her mobile) which is a worry – I will telephone her and ask what her problem is.

Not dusting

Of course I am not dusting, Violet Rose and I are going to a Christmas event; I could dust when I come back but it will be rather late and dark!

Disappointment

I was supposed to be staying with Imelda Appleblossom from Pudsey, on Saturday and she promised me gin for breakfast, with my bacon and eggs because I do not like white bread.

Imelda and I were going to be tourists in Sheffield and have a posh lunch but now she is ill.

 
I casually informed Albert about my disappointment and told him I may stay in and dust; plans may change!

 

Away up North

Albert and I were away at the seaside, I told you about it.  We used our balcony to sit and read because it was warm and sunny … how did he know it was going to be warm.

Bought a large bag of Scarborough winkles for a friend – I will not eat any of them as I do not like them.

 

This morning

I am tired this morning – it was all the laughing; crying and drinking last night and I do wish Veronica had not told me that Madam Butterfly died.

The Theatre

We sat near the orchestra next to the harp and cried at Madam Butterfly and the price of the wine!  Never mind I had a handbag full of extra alcohol.

Whilst waiting for our taxi we had a drink in a nearby pub where a very young man asked if he could buy us both a drink …….. When we had finished telling him our husbands were 8 ft 6 in and black belts in judo we said no.

As usual we had a good time and have arrangements to meet soon.

 

 

 

 

 

Are you there BBC?

I still have not heard from the BBC, perhaps they are waiting to give me a Christmas Special on the radio.

I will send them a reminder.

An irish Mother

My Mother would disapprove of my outing today as I will not be available to get Albert’s tea – tough Mother!  She liked my friend Veronica but would frown upon the gin adventure; you cannot watch opera and drink tea!

Must get ready for the theatre, should I wear my luminous green boots or the silver pair – I will ring and ask Veronica.

 

 

Opera and wine

I am out with Veronica tonight at the opera, now this could be interesting.  Veronica usually manages a backstage visit but this would mean we miss the last bus …………

Gin and tonics packed, worried about where to put the ice; better take a bigger handbag.

 

 

A holiday

Albert has booked a holiday for us next week, at the seaside.  A very nice thought, our room in the hotel has a balcony; even nicer he said ……  I have tried to tell him that snow is on its way and he can sit on the balcony on his own.
 
Taking a large book and lots of wine.

A birthday

Elvis forgot Albert’s birthday and I did remind him.

More about the Queen

Anna from Poole rang me to ask if the Queen really rang me – I have told her before she should not believe all she reads.
 
She may have rung  ….

 

The Queen

The Queen telephoned me last night to congratulate me on my new radio programme, the BBC gave her my details.  We were just talking about how informative my blog was ………… when I woke up.

 

 

Looking for me

Veronica has been looking for me, she forgot I was meeting with my bohemian friends; she wants to know if I have made mincemeat this year.
 
She is dubious about my claims to be a genius and insists I make mincemeat with love and special care, why?

 

Goth weekend

Violet Rose bought me a black lipstick from Whitby at the Goth weekend – should I wear it with my red or green earrings?

 

 

 

My writing friends

Oh what a time we had, eating, drinking, talking and talking …..

I cannot possibly tell you all we spoke of because one day one of us will be famous and the comments of the day will be important.

 
The respectable members of the group left early and Claudette and I went drinking followed by a chilli.

Did I tell you where we went, I will tell you tomorrow.
