Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
EKTUELLEH,you disgusting little oiks,I was born in The Dengies.
Yes-PLEASE do make the 'Dingies' joke-never heard that one before.
However,one was,within a few days,taken back to mater's lineal home,which was a tiny village named Saxa Vord,on the Shetland Isles,where one grew up punching puffins and leaping off the cliffs into the sea with ne'er a qualm regarding "ooh it's cold",along with other children of my generation. So,this 'Wessex' of which you speak,is known to we 'Danes' [we ain't all danes-some of us is Nordic,innit] as the place King Wotsit legged it to,when we of Viking lineage came a-visitin'.
Chap's an utter wimp-we only wanted to say hello....sigh.
One now resides on a tiny island of purest peace and tranqwooil...trankwill...tranqwilli...look,it's QUIET,m'kay?!?
And by the way-I've just realised this macbook,what I am using for only the 3rd time since it arrived in May,has NO 'pound-sign' on it!
HMMPH...bloody colonials-y'just can't trust the uppity sods.
It's got a dollar sign -z'iff anyone'd ever use THAT,for Heaven's [or in my case,Valhalla's] sake......oh,well....just hafta hope it can speak Sony.
I must be the only person I know who doesn't have an iPhone,so-we shall see. BUT-iff'n the damned thing doesn't want to interface with the wall,it WILL learn t'speak Sony Xperia.
Jolly good-carry on,chaps...
