Cosy, cosy, cosy.


She'd phoned to say that she'd landed at Gatwick, and I was expecting Lady M at any moment, so I lit a cosy fire.

Having been out in Thailand for 3 weeks, I presumed she was used to warmer weather than we're having here at the moment.

Welcome home Lady M; I'll make you a cup of Tea. I've missed you!

    If we have a fire it is like that one. Otherwise I huddle around a radiator! I hope Lady M appreciated the trouble you went to?

    LADY MAGNON: "Oh my darling Cro! How I have missed your tender smile and the mischievous twinkle in your eyes. The way you sing 'The Red Flag' each morning when you rise at 5am and the trumpet blasts from your rear end... but mostly, I must confess, I have missed Billy!"

      You have the scene perfectly. Billy is still wondering who she is!

    What a warm welcome. Lady M must have felt welcomed indeed. With tea and crumpets?

      No crumpets I'm afraid, just toast and jam.

      It seems like a long time to me, but it's good to have her home.

      My oldest (Kimbo) is at our home in France, but he's having proper fires!

    Very happy Lady M has returned safe and sound. We'll also be sitting around the same version of a fire tomorrow as they're predicting up to 12 inches of snow! It will be a good day to make some of those lovely cheese crackers.

      It's raining here; not a lot, but enough to be annoying. Good luck with the biscuits, I think I still have some frozen dough in the freezer!

      She's well and truly home now, and having a good sleep. She was exhausted.

      Fried Salmon steaks, chips, and peas. A classic Friday night dinner.

      She's relaxed now; settling down to a well deserved G & T.

    A cozy fire and a cup of tea would be what I would want when returning home. You did good.
