I have a hospital appt tomorrow - nothing major, don't start worrying - but it may mean another sauce-less eve for me. Never mind, at least there will be sweet potato fries.
Aren't you allowed to drink on Penicillin?

That's not nice. I was fighting back tears. A sauce-less evening? It's really hard to contemplate.

Londonmike, being married to an Englishman I'm well versed in fighting Cymru's corner when the conversation turns to sporting matters. I will definitely bring up rugby at some point. The more drunk I get the more Welsh I get or as my bloke says 'I get all Nessa (from Gavin and Stacey) on him' so maybe I should watch my intake. Hope your trip to the 'clinic' goes ok....do they still use the 'umbrella method'?

I shall look forward to the sparring. Or, we could meet in the middle and talk about what a splendid footballer Gareth Bale is.

The method used really depends on how big it is. Yes, umbrellas can be used, but only if the girth is wide enough to justify it. It's complicated. Just as well I'm not a doctor .

I will be very disappointed if your beard isn't as epic as that. It has to be of at least 'Brian Blessed' proportions

It's really quite different. Sophisticated, distinguished with barely a hint of grey.

In the spirit of anxious concern for those that haven't me Novo, simply look in the pub for someone who looks like a slightly older and greyer version of the image below.

Spitting image. Although I rarely spit. It's why I could never be happy in Newfoundland.
