Nigel arrived home yesterday, after a day out with Lu, like a dog who’d been taken for a walk and found two bones, a ball and a large stick …….
……. he’d made a very considered purchase of something he hoped would be the icing on top of Darrell’s festive Halloween décor cake ……. to wit, real life, bleeding candles of the tapered variety!
Let’s just say that when they swiftly replaced Darrell’s normal candles in his seasonal beaded candelabra, things got emotional ……. very, very, VERY emotional.
Darrell, for all his hosting perfection, had no idea, that such wonderous candles even existed. Tears were not very manfully wiped away, in fact it was an absolute blubberfest!
And, when lit, did they actually bleed?
Well, not actual real blood, that would be a step a tad too macabre, but the overall affect was just too brilliant for words. We can’t wait to share their lighting with Iris and Bertie later on tonight ……. Nigel “dun soooooooooo soooooooo gud”, where on earth would we be without him and his untutored, yet totally instinctive finesse for such occasions!
