from the ABC set Silver Spun Sand Stories

The Chablis - unequivocably delightful...richly evocative, as it was, of vineyards bathed in sunlight 'neath a dewy, dappled shade, with hints of pineapple, citrus fruit, lychees, melons...reminiscent of the fin-de-siecle, yet I imbibed to an excess at the café today, and as my arm suddenly dropped off the table, it woke me with a start, at which I realised, I was as pissed as a newt.

Hey - thanks for that, Pia. And many congrats on yours. This really was a fantastic idea of Tony's. After a hard day painting my garden fence, it was just what I needed to make myself wind down;-)

Have a great weekend, Pia;-)

Only once in a while...Doesn't everyone's? The times I have written something like that and then realised what I have actually said;-)

Thanks, Maisie and more power to yours...your arm, I mean;-)

Hi Tina,

the beginning made my mouth water, the ending made
me laugh out loud.

Great IP.

Jenny.
