Darrell has Skyped Nigel to keep him informed as to the further trials and tribulations of our continuing en-suite saga saga. Whilst I am overjoyed to have a functioning shower it still remains off piste until we can arrange a suitable time for Tom the Plumber to fit it, but let’s just say Mr Tom is a VERY busy person and in VERY high demand ……however, we are now soooooo close to completion Darrell says he can almost smell his much neglected David Beckham shower gel.
Nigel was philosophical, saying that while there remained the slightest chance of undertones of an en-suite trauma pervading The Towers he was more than happy to stay in Exmouth for a few more days especially as The Manor was taking care of him so well, although he was avoiding the party of Twitchers, saying that though he can look very interested to be polite, there were only so many ruddy shelducks, warblers and tits he could now feign enthusiasm for.
He also said that he’d almost managed to work his way through The Manor’s daily special board but what he really, really fancied was of one of Darrell’s spag bol specials. I am really missing the little fella too ……I am much more calmer now thanks to Darrell’s brown paper bags and chamomile tea, hopefully one more visit from Tom and I can start to make it all up to both him and Darrell.

I guess the novelty of being on holiday wears off if you feel you have to stay away. Fingers crossed the Shower is sorted very soon.

Nothing better than good home-made spag bol - after a bit of twitching though I have to say - I'm on team feathered friends I have to say. Always one to have my binocs at the ready. JantheFan x
The spag bol sounds great.
