I can report that any tumbleweed here would have been sucked into a vortex and drowned, as it's been high winds and rain, rain, rain all day. However, this morning my preserved lemons were oozing juicily in their jar and looking very sunny and bright and I'm having a vegetarian week.Originally posted by ferneyhoughgeliebte View Post
That is all the news fit to print from the Principality!

Thank you for your, and others', good wishes. I'll let you know how it goes. My sister, assisted by Mr Pickford, is in charge. I'll just do as I'm told; I know my place.Originally posted by Anna View PostI can report that any tumbleweed here would have been sucked into a vortex and drowned, as it's been high winds and rain, rain, rain all day.

Sorry to hear about the rain. Not too bad here today, but other parts of Scotland have not been so fortunate.
What a vision "oozing juicily in their jar" conjures up! What is in there apart from lemons - unless of course it's a trade secret?Comment
