The last words were lost as the kind-hearted Scottish housekeeper closed the door. Dr Watson always says my duff is the sweetest he’s ever…” “Ye’ll be coming to the soiree doctor, will ye no’? I’ve two plum puddings yonder in my pantry, soaking in brandy the noo. Mrs Hudson was clearing away the remains of a fulsome breakfast. What a picture, I thought with a smile perfect! I pulled the brass knob for 221 and heard the first fourteen notes of “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen” ring out inside the house. The cheerful beggars, (God bless yer, Guv’nor!), the barefoot urchins playing hopscotch in the snow, all rosy cheeks and wrapped up warm in coal sacks, and the red mail coach rumbling by with a fat coachman blowing his bugle on top. And so, at a loose end, I found myself once more in Baker Street at the door of my friends, the celebrated investigator, Mr Gorilla Bananas, and his assistant Ayres.Įven here in the Great Metropolis, I mused, the Spirit of Christmas had touched all in his eternal message of hope. Stan could get his magnificent balls out and she would show him where to put his firry log.
If I would leave them to it she said, they would start decorating the tree. Mrs Maroon had gone so far as to employ the services of a local department store who that very morning had sent round a fine strapping lad recently arrived from Poland called Stanislav, with a basket of decorations and half a pit prop festooned with fir cones. It was a quiet time in practice, and our household equilibrium was upset with the expensive preparations of the season.
Ps, happy new year etc, to Bock, Knudsen (and his shrapnel), Kim, Footsy (all of them) and all the gang. It’s too late to change it now, you’ll just have to sort yourselves out and that’s that! I also see now that it was Daphne that went on about the next episodes and not SheBah. I know YOU believe, it’s the rest of the doubters that bother me. It’s odd to me to think of you out in nice warm air while we dodge the wet rain and flu germs. Should you receive course credits for it, I shall expect an acknowledgement. A distilled piece of English prose at its best. Any good?)Įryl, I have passed your succinct comments to your tutor. (Daphers, am in Toulouse 15 to 18 January. (FMC, I’m only flirting, It’s the season for it.) I, by the way, am a fantastic Latin dancer especially the mamba (that’s the dirty one) and one day I feel sure we shall take the floor and show those silly Wallonians and Flems the meaning of bonding. The human hand is a harbinger.ĭaphne I bet you can rumba like a champion. There’s nothing more to say except to send you my deepest gratitude for such an inspired concoction. Pat you gave us kir and changed our lives forever. Yer no’ bad lookin’ neither, which is always a bonus. Yer a guid hertit gurril and that’s a fact. The food, the lavatories, the unfinished hotel, the language, topless sunbathing, Ambre Solaire, shall I do your back? … It’s like taking us all off on a Spanish holiday. Anyway, it’s all there ready for us, the photocopier, the drink, all of us in fancy dress we know what’s going to happen. SheBah, you’re right, but as Kim points out, Panto goes on almost to February. (least said soonest mended) Come on, we’ve all done it. It came, if I’m honest, as a terrible shock but in a really really good way. Just like that time at the works do four years ago (ask Kim if you don’t believe me) when this young thing came up to me and gave me a hell of snogging.
#THE MUMMY RETURNS MOVIE TOPLESS FIGHT SCENE FULL#
A full on fantasy etheric snog that’ll take me months to get over. My nearest and dearest can go hang but I must check on my correspondence.įatmammycat your kiss is sweet. It’s odd how attached I’ve gotten to you all. I was in Perth yesterday so I couldn’t resist it. Not my library, it’s being remodelled right now, no, the public library. I cannot tell you all how pleasant it was to read them yesterday in the library. And also your wonderful wishes for my seasonal success. You know, the panto thing, the last article, that one down there. R e the comments from the last thing a fortnight ago.
