A piece of dialogue

A piece of dialogue from when Jo and I were sorting jewellery yesterday:-

Jo:- “You were going to photograph the thingy off Doris’s whatchemacallit.”

Me:- “Can you possibly be a bit more explicit????”

Jo:- “Of come on, John, you’ve got to keep up better than that!”

Me:– under breath – “Doh.”

Jo:- under breath – “Duh.”

...and thus, the tremendous fame and acclaim of the book "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus".

Oh Jo, you and Cynthia LH are so right! Maybe it's a guy thing.

Me - 'Did you see that?'
The English Robin - 'What?'
Me - 'The X.'
The English Robin - 'What X?'

Can't help but love 'em though!

The Cast

This is my main blog insofar as it is the one I try to ensure has at least one entry per day - and usually two. It is also the one which has my Friday My Town Shoot-out on it.

My home is in Pensby on The Wirral in Cheshire, England but at the moment I am on holiday in the Outer Hebrides, staying at my brother's near Stornoway. (Somewhere I have a little map that says I am here and points to Stornoway but I can't find it and am too lazy to make another one). This is the cast of characters who appear regularly:-

Me - sometimes known as CJ or John and otherwise known as Scriptor Senex; Jo (alias Partner-who-loves-tea and also known as Partner-who-hates-being-photographed); Bryony (Food-loving-Daughter); Bryony's husband Mark (Son-in-law-who-cooks); Helen (Daughter-who-takes-photos); Helen's husband Ian (a.k.a. Son-in-law-and-Friend-who-loves-Otters); Richard (Son-who-watches-films);
