Yes I did! And Andrew Neil, whom I know quite well,
did an excellent job in pretending never to have heard of me.

No fixing though. I've been trying for years.

Congratulations!

If it were possible, I would attach a tea bag to this message to help you
celebrate (-:

It was neither cold nor wet yesterday at the Loch of Strathbeg,
which is not a million miles from Peterhead. In fact, it was
bright and sunny with a gentle but cool breeze from the south.

And I have just had seven rain-free days in succession, which is rather nice at
this time of year.

Another lovely day today, sunny, light north-easterly, and the fog has cleared
away out to sea.

The Met O forecast shows no rain on the five day forecast - I could be on for a
personal best here (-:

The mug arrived this morning ... christened with a generous helping
of Earl Grey. It'll now go on the mantelpiece to keep it (relatively)
safe. A virtual cup, perhaps, for one and all?
