Dining on the firm tonight. There will be 5 of us, brainstorming session after. So its fillet steak, mushrooms, selection of green vegetables, Onion rings and thrice cooked chips, after the garlic breads, followed by very sticky pudding and custard. A good South African red wine, possibly Capel Court. Tomats, (Victory) cocktails to follow so I have a clear palate for talking. Being in HMG's employ does have some small advantages. I'd have thought at your age you would be taking it easy in July and August ! You know my age? How, I have never published it. Besides it's none of your business. Who is "a"?

About 216 yrs old is my best guess.

It is indeed.
And for reference purposes one of my sources works for Kroll O'Gara. Well maybe they are Kroll Inc. now but I think of them as the company who merged with an armoured vehicle producer.
It's amazing what you can find out when you have the right people !

Well, we know your dad is cracking on a bit, so you must be approaching gimmerhood. We've not had an update on the old rascal for a while, is he still ensconced in the far East? Not quite as old as my forum moniker! Thank you for asking, yes, he is still in Manila, no chance of him leaving in the near future. Besides he appears to be enjoying his stress free life too much at present. His lady friends are looking after him too well. The Mayor is enjoying his mechanical and engineering expertise too, may be sorry to see him go. There are now inoculations available, he has been double vaccinated fortunately for which I am very grateful. The Presidents policy of minimising any travel seems to have worked well in minimising deaths and the severity of illness seems to be less than it was in the UK. Thankfully his pension seems to be covering his living expenses but it is annoying that every time I send him the money the banks suck up their percentage.

For supper tonight I had two Babybel cheeses, another bag of Frazzles and two radishes.
Tomorrow I might have some chilli con carne (out of a tin) with rice.

Tonight I had about a dozen Ritz cheese crackers spread with Saint Agur blue cheese. I like Saint Agur, it's not a historical cheese by any means, I think it was introduced in the 1980s but it's creamy and tangy and goes down well with a can of cheap Polish super-strength lager.

Pollock from co-op, Aztec broccoli, fried courgette and chard with a couple of boiled potatoes, followed by rhubarb crumble and yoghurt with fresh black and white currants from the garden. Everything from the garden apart from fish and potatoes.
