I guess I'll never know the reason why you love me as you do....

Monday, 8pm

Thought for the Day - You can only ever set a toaster to toast your bread either too pale or too burnt

Pug Status - Slightly narked by puppy Bob's habit of chewing her ears when she's trying to sleep

Got all the paperwork through for my new job yesterday so we're almost up and running, something which perhaps Ms Easby will not be for a while.... Well done Dawn for doing so well in the Berlin Marathon at the weekend! Although, shouldn't it be called the Berlin Snickers these days? Her ability to run 26 miles in four and half hours now makes her officially faster than the 07.48 Monday morning train from Welwyn Garden City to Moorgate and, hopefully, less liable to suffer a breakdown....

Some friends of ours have just got back from a holiday in Memphis and they rather sweetly bought me a little gift, of some Elvis and Graceland branded chocolate! So, to James and Anna, I would just like to say - Thanguvrrymush....

I thought it might have been fried peanut butter and banana sandwich flavoured in honour of The King's idiosyncratic dietary regime (just milk & plain unfortunately) but it made me think whether they sold any other Elvis themed confectionery - Jailhouse Rock perhaps, or a pack of Blue Suede Chews. The chocolate itself has a serving suggestion on the wrapper; 'ideal melted and served between layers of Victoria Sponge, topped with cream and black cherries'. So, best eaten (ahem) 'In the Gateaux'.....

Obi Pug Kenobi, like me, is a guilty Presley fan; she readily admits to being partial to a bit of 'Teddy Bear' (especially the ones with a squeak in the middle) but, as a pedigree pug, refuses to have anything to do with 'Hound Dog'....
