Down on the Breck

 

The Current Mrs Creel went into Kirkwall today for a craft session.  She stunned me on return by presenting me with the paper at 12.55.  A rare treat.  However it was only when I noticed that Jimmy Shand was top of the bill at the Tivoli in Aberdeen did I become suspicious.  Third on the bill was Jimmy Clitheroe (the kid himself).  Gusto Rotardi and his performing dogs were next, followed by Madame ZaZa and a bucket of cold water.

In the afternoon I went and retrieved the wheelbarrow from our neighbour.  As I was walking home with it Angus slowed his tractor down and asked if I was taking my test soon.  I put the wheelbarrow down for a chat and he immediately buggered off and gave me an age-old sign.    

On CMC’s return I also stunned her as I forgot I was on cooking duties.  For the sake of completion I have to report there’s quite a dull ring when a le Creuset frying pan hits a skull.

I have just fielded a phone call from Shetlanders asking me to go dancing but I have had to decline.  At midnight Zibby arrives for a two month stay with us, he is currently on the Hrossey steaming up from Aberdeen.

I’m not sure if King Zog would have appreciated any of the above.
