GLAD YOUR BETTER BORIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice to see you back on TIBB we've missed you so! I hope your feeling better and that your back to full health soon

[Romantic Old Bird]

Hello folks.

Sorry Bo, Duch, or whatever your name is!


I didn't read all this till just now, and I am completely contrite. Poor you.

I hope the repair of the unmentionables has left you in even better fettle than before. Do tell Nursey all about it when you can.

HOPE YOU ARE SITTING UP IN BED AND TAKING A LIGHTLY BOILED EGG BY NOW!




All this aliasing is making me think perhaps I should transmogrify into something or someone else.

At the moment I am hovering between

Randgo the talking aspidistra


or, indeed:


Nursey!

What do you think?



P.S. Get well soon oh svelte one! xxx

Can't get rid of this image of haggis out of my head

Glad you're back and PROPERLY sorted out.

[Boris]

Yes Stowford, you got it in one. And there is the surgeons knife just where he dropped it to have a wee dram!

Funny places these hospitals!

Speaking of the chief of the pudding race

YUK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Sorry everyone but I just couldn't manage Haggis before and now I shall be thinking of poor Boris's tummy, so there's even less chance. No Burns Night suppers for me from now on!

I had haggis last year in Scotland and was not enamoured. As far as I am concerned it goes with such other 'gastronomic delights' as chittling and tripe.

Definitely not for a recovering Boris although I have been told tripe cooked in milk is supposed to be a good meal for delicate constitutions.

[Sticks]

Actually

I quite like Haggis

When I used to be able to buy it on Grainger Market, I would always buy one, then freeze it and take it with me when I visited my parents in Yorkshire. I would then prepare the neeps and tatties, on which you use quite a lot of black pepper.

It can be quite delicious. Unfortunately even the smallest haggis is a bit much for one person. I could try and get the "tinned" haggis, but it is not quite the same.

Boris!

Sorry I've not been around recently . . . long story . . . . moving office - holiday - PC playing up again - whatever!

So sorry to hear you've been ill . . . . but great to see you're on the mend.

These are for you . . .



Take care . . . . look after yourself . . . . . and make sure you get lots of TLC from Mr Boris!

No, spare poor Boris from the Tripe!

Someone told my mum a similar tale when I was a child with frequent tonsillitis. I used to have to hide the b****y stuff under my bed unil I was better. It's vile.

I still can't stand to think of Virol for similar reasons......
