At 19:07 I went downstairs for a refill ... the pink pop has all gone.

And now, so has a bottle of Sancerre.

The missus has decided now would be a good time to dish up dinner.

I might be back later.

(I can't believe how many typos I have made trying to write this!)

I didn't realise that was a service they offered. Do they bring him round to your house for you to boot him, or do you have to go to his office?

If you go to his office, then it's included in the standard charge.

How many weeks long is the queue?

Hmmm.... Anthony Buckeridge's fictional schoolboy Jennings was the son of a businessman from Hayward's Heath.

Well, well.

I also.

The last one was only published in 1994, so there must be quite a few I haven't read.

Feel free to eat all the ticket-touts you like.

From Wikipedia:
"When published in France we find that Jennings has been given the name of Bennett while in Norway he is known as Stompa."
