And I will presume that you are not. I would even go as far to say that he's not even funny. Y'know what I tried up in Shropshire? Marmalade bread and butter pudding and by the Love of All Things Holy (including Father Christ-mas) it was good. So extremely good. Not that I'm putting in requests to your wife. Pirates kept not only my nephew quiet but my dad which was a bonus. Once the tele's on there's no getting through to him. As a child this was perfect for getting what I wanted. Now it's hard to get through to him his dinner's on the table. I've started watching Neverwhere now and I'm not overly impressed... but it does have Peter Capaldi in who is fast increasing to be my new want. Well he’s quite… rotund isn’t he?

If only I had a wife to make me some! Happy New Day to you, Gerry! (I don't give a toss anymore about New Year's either. But a new day? Sure, why not.)

Happy New Day to you, Gerry! (I don’t give a toss anymore about New Year’s either. But a new day? Sure, why not.)

Nobody wants that. You're welcome to share my bread and butter pud any time, KatieMc. I'll get the missus to put extra on so there's no fighting. Sorry about Pirates.

Currently I'm eating moist Christmas cake and supping some red wine at home whilst the nephew watches Pirates of The Caribbean. Well, I can't have everything to perfection otherwise I can't improve. Judging by the rectangular black and white photograph of your mouth you do not look like Rory McGrath. But your eyes may say something different. Happy New Year Gerry, nice to have *met* you this year. Next year I’m coming round yours for bread and butter pudding.
