First – ? – sunflower seeds have woken up. Three or four pushing stuff skywards. Jolly quick, I thought. Second, food – ? – know what you mean, Lou. I love food which is well seasoned with either spices or herbs. Am careful not to overdo it though, like Rick Stein, I mean, chilli on prawns? Kills the light, delightful flavour of original ingreezement.
Other stuff? “Stavros” (as Di Spencer called him) – met him once when he was being shown round my magazine. Seemed alright, if more than a little three-sheets-in-the-wind (was after a fairly lavish Royal lunch).
Pics of Tilly – such a camera tart! When she’s walking with neighbour, the latter ends us about ten snaps from every walk.
Operations: you have our very best wishes, Lou. Believe me, we really do know what you will be going through. Aside from risk of op’ itself, one of the greatest issues is the chance of PTSD after it. Physical and mental stress etc. Try to find someone to talk to during and/or after your operation? We are always here, of course…
