Bye bye Ian

 Pictures that emerged from Ian's visit to Hereford

On Tuesday mornings we hand over
the house to Julie, our indefatigable
cleaner, and pass time with hot-cross
buns at Tesco's caff. It's not The Savoy

During his three-week stay Ian baked
several cakes; this one's ginger flavoured.
Yes, I know it sags in the middle but I,
for one, like ' em slightly soggy 

Our house has a side bed which
tends to be ignored. During a
visit from the solar-panel cleaners
I discovered the camellia (which
I refer to as a cyclamen - but
who cares?) was in full bloom
and I escorted VR for a viewing

As a going-away present Ian prepared
these six curries to spare me from
having to prepare anything other 
than Philadelphia Cream Cheese
spread on slices of Ryvita

  2. Ian was good to prepare six curries to freeze (I'm assuming you will freeze them?). I think the hot cross bun looks inviting. Ginger cake? Yum. But most of all, I like the picture of you two walking to look at the flowers. You look gallant, holding your arm to your chest so your lovely lady can hold on to it.

  3. Colette: Only in extreme old age does one become aware of all the different levels of affection. In many respects this is the most intense.
