21st April
Miss W is holding the fort back in France. There are a few things puzzling her, I thought I'd share some of the emails ...
Friday
I can’t deal with your kitchen - I’m going out to buy a load of bread and we’re just doing sandwiches til you get back.
Saturday
Those jars in the fridge – should I tip everything out and check whatever's in the damn thing when I change the damp tissue? I can’t tell which are the bits of twig and dirt and what’s alive and I’m frightened that a bug might be in the stuff that gets on the floor
Sunday
That woman came over to put her sheep back in - WTF!!!, the boys spent the morning with her!!! – she got right on my tits - do we invoice her??!
Homeric Hapaxes.

Bit of a townie then is she? You realise she'll be writing up her experiences of visiting you on her blog like it was Cold Comfort Farm ;-)
ReplyDeleteUh oh, I sense a catfight brewing between Miss Whiplash and Mrs Druid. Perhaps "cougarfight" would be a better term.
ReplyDeleteThank god you've got someone who's not afraid to stand her ground holding the fort. Miss W sounds like she's holding up well!
ReplyDeleteStef - I love seeing the place through her eyes
ReplyDeleteGadjo - I hope she does put it on her blog
Gorilla - I expect you'd love a catfight/cougar fight - should I get photos?
Daisy - Miss W would hold up well anywhere!
haha! Sunday's entry is a particular favourite, along with StefRobrts' hilarious comment.
ReplyDeleteGotta hate when someone gets on your tits.
ReplyDeleteI think Miss W is a very fine bug and boy steward.
ReplyDeleteOhhh lalala !!Dans ce cas c'est la facture !!
ReplyDeletekatrocket - I'm going to get Miss W to take over this blog
ReplyDeletebb mcclain - it's worse than a pain in the arse
xl see my answer to Kat
Crabbers - Bien sur c'est la facture - si non nous mangeons tous les moutons
Alors! you've gone bilingue on your blog.Come back and take the reins from Miss W - it's falling apart without you.
ReplyDeleteIf she's bent you over and placed a rather large carrot up your bottom you must fire with fire, and invoice her.
ReplyDeleteFrenchie - I think she's doing terribly well - I can't handle Mrs Druid
ReplyDeleteMr Marks - an invoice it is
you have such an interesting life!!
ReplyDeleteI say invoice her and to hell with her. That's what I say.
ReplyDeleteI fear that Miss Whiplash may not be the Amazon she appears to be. I worry for the Camera Boys' health if they're subsisting on sandwiches.
ReplyDeleteRoshni - I try Roshni - life would be too dull otherwise
ReplyDeleteIan Lidster - I will bloomin' well invoice her to hell.
Madame DeFarge - I think Miss W would say that she has simply not got potato-peeling hands
