You know I really am a miracle man! After only about 89 attempts I have managed to post something here using 'SoD's magical-mini-do-flicker-thingie. Well, to be accurate, I am managing to type this but whether or not I will be able to send it is another story and it is possible that SoD's 'mmdft' will end up in the Med! However, I did manage to leave a comment at the post below. Anyway, my brain is hurting - and, no, it isn't last night's Greek brandy - so I will take a well-deserved break and perhaps return later.

Well, that's very kind of you but we're doing just fine without you, thanks.
The peace and quiet is lovely and we're reading books, going for walks and talking to friends and neighbours.
Don't worry about us - we'll have forgotten about you in a fortnight.

I tried phoning Mum's mobile, the hotel room telephone (don't tell me you were? ... urrrggh!), and email, but to no avail.
So I guess I might as well drop it in here: -
HAPPY 75TH BIRTHDAY, Y'OLD FART-KNOCKER!
SoD

(don't tell me you were? ... urrrggh!),
..and precisely how do you think you were generated SoD? Not from under a cabbage leaf that's a crock.
Happy birthday Duffers.

Happy birthday Mr Duff. I have a vision of you surrounded by scantilly dressed 93-year olds soaking up the sun.

All very well, Duff, but what about our gloriously unPC Monday Funnies?
Posted by: Oswald Thake | Sunday, 18 May 2014 at 10:29
Enjoy the fun? in the sun. Happy B`Day.
Posted by: Up2L8 | Sunday, 18 May 2014 at 13:15
Enjoy the urrrggh!

Thank you one and all for your birthday wishes and for what it's worth I can tell you that the memsahib has told me that 'uurrrggh' is definitely OFF the menu which, given the heat, is something of a relief! Tomorrow we are off to Rhodes city which means, dread word, shopping! As for the lack of jokes, Mr. Thake, you had double-bubble last Monday!
