Also, my thanks for the concerns, and Mr & Mrs Mallard that you have sent to keep an eye on me. (At least I assume you've sent them, as it is either that or they like sitting in the prickly juniper bush by our patio, and given they seem to be equipped with VTOL capability I am guessing they have had dealings with Montsmags Enterprises.) They seem to spend a large amount of time staring in through the patio, presumably taking notes on my on-going health (either that or to embarrass me into getting back onto MR). Well, apart from the time they spend staring into the wooden fence. This, I infer, is a result of the daily, post-debriefing, mandatory ZCD causing a minor targeting mis-alignment -- I know from trips to Adrian's that Anas Platyrhynchos normally has excellent targetting abilities.

However, I am somewhat nervous about the simultaneous recent residency of a reasonable number of crows. It occurs to me that they may be spies for Nogbad the Bad, or Slite's evil twin (who has probably dognapped him again, and is doubtless up to no good again). If anyone has a gong to call Groliffe, perhaps they could give Groliffe a call and ask him if he could drive off the crows, unless he's busy freezing Texas again.

And can anyone help work out which side the rabbits are on -- their plant munching habbits are definitely evil. However their escape tactics when approached are, shall we say, not particularly well organised as they seem to involve running into things (fence post and fencing) looking confused, running back towards me, stopping, running away again and then eventually working out that they are small enough to fit through the stock fencing and are equipped with highly efficient jumping equipment allowing them to vault the ditch.

I suspect I'll not be about much for a bit, but will try to return with some presents....

In the meantime, if someone could pass a few drams of the Bowmore Islay 18 year old Malt, that would go down exceptionally well.

And I'm still looking for the escape tunnel. I just want to use it in the wrong direction.

Or should that be the right direction?

Would 23 year old rum do in a pinch....

So long as it's more than a pinch, or it's in a punch, certainly. Would a cocktail be possible?

<pause>

Ummm.... Is that a Parisian Blonde or a Little Devil in your hand?
