A digestive base with a raspberry puree with patches of raspberry gelatine.. goodness.. what can she be talking about?

It's a no brainer folks.. she's describing a raspberry cheesecake, is she not?

You know, she's quite capable of making such things, I've actually seen her make them with my own eyes BUT to be hand delivered a large slice of slurpy cheesecake, is, we think, a huge treat.

Her greed, I regret to tell you, was such that it meant that I didn't even get a crumb from the base.. see what I have to put up with, huh.

She is on the mend, her voice still sounds like a rusty old file and she has a hacker of a cough but she was at least standing up for most of the day and dressed. Not in a mix of clothes that was for public viewing but as she wasn't going out, it meant no one was going to see her, so she didn't care, she was warm.

Now this is curious, we had a message from Pauline, from their slimming group, to say she's not in a good way.. with a severe rash of hives and a hacking cough, she's on anti-histamine and benovate. We are wondering whether she's had the same thing? Poor Pauline. If it is, we know how evil you feel.

We had swede and carrot mash in the late afternoon, with a small amount of beef stew, it was good, we tend to forget how swede is fabulous if cooked with carrots or sweet potatoes, especially if you grate a little allspice over the dish and add a knob of butter together with a crunch of sea salt.

Miss Piggy ate the cheesecake at about seven o'clock..

It's late, she's got an alarm set for some strange reason, she's expecting 'a call about a dog', this means it is none of my business - except is is my business, when I'm awoken at some gruesome hour.

And that numpty man whom she saw read all of the meters a couple of days ago, well, he has got to come back between 12.45 - 15.00 tomorrow to read the common parts meter again.. words fail us..  wouldn't you think to check to make sure you had them all before you left the first time?

No response from the landlord about the tv aerial, so today, she's sent an email to the TV Licensing Dept of the BBC, giving them notice that as she is not being allowed access to the aerial on the roof to see what is wrong and as she has no service, what they think she should do? Why should she pay £12.12 each month when she has no tv signal?

Nothing else to report.. a trip to Chinatown has to occur tomorrow, she's finished the supply of greens and they are the best, steamed, then chopped up over a bowl of rice noodles with garlic and grated ginger, very good for the chest and a stupid cough, which wakes me up in the night as it rattles in her throat, poor old bat, she can't help being so old.

GeeGee Parrot.
