Sent me straight off to Wikipedia because I thought I recognized the twisted spire, but couldn't place it. Sounds like a good gentle comedy reminiscent of some of Barbara Pym's novels. I'll need to take a look.

I'll bet that those who've see the nearly immediate post-op photo can't unsee it!

Or did he regard these ideas as "evergreen"?

Please post a photo after all of the bruising and swelling goes away! Your current look is really not too bad, given the nature of the surgery, but it would be interesting to see an after-after photo.

I've wondered what all the tats we see on young people will look like by the time they're in they're 80s. Nurses in their 30s, in particular seem to be so heavily tattooed that there's hardly any natural skin showing.

Hoping for the best possible outcome from your surgery, and for a speedy recovery. Will be looking for a full report from you whenever you're able. In this weather, chocolate would arrive melted and US$s would be useless to you, so sending only good wishes.

I don't; never did, although one of my extremely traditional friends does. And I don't post Facebook updates, either. That just advertises that my house is unoccupied. Most of my relatives do that, and although I enjoy keeping up with their travels, I hope that someone is keeping an eagle-eye on...

Could do, of course, but had hoped that someone had a more up-to-date method of communication. It's been so many decades since I wrote a proper business letter that I'd have to look up the format!

Neither Virtual Huddersfield nor Beattie's Deli publishes an email, so there is no way to register a suggestion that the huge, white URLs at the bottom of the display might be reduced in size and relocated either to the top of the image, or in the top or bottom margin in order to avoid blocking...

So frequently that they might have started labeling them as false alarms!

I have several similar to that one stored in the cellar. Now I don't even have a landline.

Or is it the railway tunnels at Dunford Bridge? The building looks similar to the Stanhope, and the the two small tunnels with one large one next to them look right for there. Eagerly awaiting the correct answer.

I recall a bit of the dialogue, and of course the background is outside Marsden, very near the Standedge Tunnel. Can't recall who the third man was, except that it wasn't Blamire or Truly, or anything about the plot.

Just at the moment, don't breathe deeply in the vicinity of Gayle Beck. Today's BBC news report is not good...

It's similar, but not quite good enough.
