How are y'all planning on spending the day? There is a possibility of rain which hopefully will come via Marsden moors. Does anyone fancy a game of soccer? I wonder how many of us have the strength to kick a ball. I personally do not have the strength to kick the bucket otherwise I would be typing this in a wooden overcoat. Can we organise a couple of teams? One male and one female. Just imagine fellas, eleven gorgeous ladies in football shorts. Captain Clutterbuck could lead the male team off with a medley of tunes starting with the Dean Martin favourite, 'Memories are made of this'. A word of warning to the male team, be very careful how you tackle Pearl or you may get kicked in the penalty area. The last time I played football I went on covered in feathers and a red comb on the top of my head. Well, somebody had to be the fowl. Who would you like to referee the game? Don't even think about suggesting me. I might be okay as a corner flag. We would need someone with enough strength to blow a whistle. This brings us to a very sensitive part of this mail. Who, I ask, is our biggest windbag? Now you are thinking 'Who IS our biggest windbag?' One or two people spring to mind and I....??? What's that you said missus? .......ME? I know I like to chat a lot but windbag? Let me tell you that the last time I tried to blow out a candle it just stood there and laughed at me. Last Friday I had 85 little candles in hysterics laughing when I tried to blow them out on my birthday cake. That reminds me, thank you for your birthday greetings Moggie. OH, must tell you this, a beautiful big chocolate cake arrived on my birthday with, and this is true, with 83 on it. Either my wife is going doolally or that cake is two years past it's sell by date.
