Hello Beth, It would be fine, when I fail there is a chinese takeaway in the village and, of course, there is always the Fish and Chip Shop. If anyone is willing to do the train from London, never mind the 5000 miles, they can eat here xxExx I assume you will not all apear at once!
Hi Emma!
Nice to "hear your voice" here in our little playground.
Are you aware of what a bad bad boy your Jono frequently is? (I don't have time to go into all the details.....)
But your kindness, patience, wisdom, and culinary skills are legendary.
And thank you for allowing Jono to come play with us here as often as he does. (He really is quite the menace, isn't he?)
Best wishes,
Ancient David
P.S. That was me, I am afraid, who recommended Equus. I am a famously not very nice person......but I am trying to repent and reform myself.

Very nice to see you on our little playground (don't eat the sand)! I would like to personally thank you for a wonderful day. You certainly lived up to your status as legendary cook as well. Carrie and Michael also say hello and send an e-hug and their thanks. I am looking forward to seeing you again this summer (minus the family).

Quite by accident! I hope he did not bother her. Thanks for the adulation! We try hard to be good parents, but the truth is that we got very lucky and just ended up with a good kid.
I don't care what you say, that horse wants me DEAD! He will probably get me in May. Guess I better up my policy.
PPS. How was France?
(See the whole gallery at http://www.pbase.com/moonface/e10_jonos
the larger ones look better)
We (the Moons; Mike, Carrie and little Michael) had the honor,
pleasure and priviledge of spending a day and evening in beautiful,
North-Eastern England with the Slack Family. Of our 8 days in the
UK, we can honestly say this was our best! No kidding!
First, Emma fed us like royalty. Incredible Greek cuisine, straight
from the Aga...
After lunch and a bit more chit-chat, we went about the 'garden'.
Michael got to hold Emma's chicken...
And their horse plotted to kill me ;-)...
After a warm up, we went on a stunning walk in the countryside
(right outside the door!)...
Jono was kind enough to take us to the local, 12th century church...
and graveyard...
We made our way back as my wife and son were turning blue from the
cold. After warming up again, Jono and Emma took us to a little pub
in town where we had a fantastic dinner (I had the salmon rolls).
Then, at about 10 that evening, they put us on a train back to
London. I can't express my gratitude enough for their hospitality.
We also got to meet Saul and Simeon (unfortunately Silas was off at
school). Wonderful boys! Great dogs and bird too! I think Michael
was annoying Saul a bit, but he was fascinated with him. They all
tolerated his (Michael's) high energy and unstopable talking very
well.
It was an absolute pleasure! Hell, he only lives 5000 miles away
from me...no big deal ;-). I hope to get out to see them again in
the early summer (if they will have me, of course).
One more (Sorry Jono, but I really like this one)...
