Yes, very bijou, so sorry to shatter your image of me neti. I went to the shops & used up every ounce of strength in my stikky body, moaned to all who'd stand and listen and I'm now sitting here in the east wing eating a medicinal custard.
Oh yes, there are several who sit with their finger on the reply button to every Q whether they've anything useful to add or not.
My coat's arrived, very nice for the offer price (well it'll be better when the creases drop out, tut) but I wouldn't pay full price. Just covers the btm, versatile but it's not long term classic quality so it'll be wear it whenever... now I need a new parka...new waterproof...'nother pair boots...shoes...wellies...bags (Kipling one not arrived yet)....brolly...
Oh dear, I'll have to rent out the west wing to students...
