      Here on the Suffolk coast we're still waiting for the mist and cloud to break and let the sun through. (Don't worry about us ... we'll be OK ...just enjoy your sunshine...)

          Is this talking amongst ourselves whilst Am's brain cells do a U turn? Weather great here in sunny Cornwall, but a bit more of a breeze than yesterday.

                No probs cloughie - if you're anything like me, you'll be a bit fuzzy round the edges after an hour off the sleeping quota

                          I can't improve on it. Amateur is doubtless flâning along the boulevards twirling his cane in the soft spring sunshine. I imagine he'll be back shortly

                                A member of the DGPs? A member??!

                                Does being a founder count for nought these days?

                                Galina Wossername it is - perhaps an inamorata of DSCH according to the Guardian obit

                                Over to cloughie for a Vee, svp!

                                Sorry have been out for a Rasteau-fuelled luncheon, quite unexpected
