The other night, Mr. Waffle and I were sitting
in (as opposed to the evenings we are out tripping the light fantastic) and it
was bucketing rain ouside.

Me: Is there anything nicer than sitting inside
warm, dry and comfy when itÂ’s cold and wet outside?

Him (pause): Well, the entire tourism and
leisure industries are predicated on the belief that, in fact, there is.

And what about camping? The best bit about being in a tent is when you can hear the rain on the canvas outside, and you get to snuggle down inside your sleeping bag and drink whiskey – surely? 0

Um, maybe Mike. Groupie, this was never a feature of camping holidays with my parents; I mean the whiskey. BHM, eh? 0

Very sound. Logical. Very sound and logical. And intelligent. Sound, very, and logical and intelligent.

In hospital, people were constantly sticking
needles into me.  One nurse said
“Vous avez des veines comme un bûcheron”.   I asked Mr. Waffle why they would say that I had veins like a cork (comme
un bouchon).  He looked surprised then
asked “could it have been “comme un bûcheron?’” Ah yes, that was it, what does that
mean?  “Like a woodcutter”.  Fantastic, kick the patient when she’s down.
