Just had quick call from Uncle Arthur, hes just said - anyone coming to his bonfire party should leave their car in the lower field please and wear willies as the cows have been in it for the past couple of weeks. He reckons youll be able to see the bonfire from Lytchitt- Matravarse (Wherever that is?) He said itll be like a re-make of The Whicker Man Also - quote - Dont park ya motors in front of old prat faces gate, as heda get the right arse if he cant get his bloody Range Rover out! Im assuming old prat face is the farmer who owns the wind generator which was out of action due to a certain gusset jam following an elastic malfunction! He also requests you bring your own tankard. (By the sound of it I think hes been testing the scrumpy tonight? :) I asked if Auntie would be there as she always does the most amazing goat curry on bonfire night served with homemade bread, sometimes she also sticks her dumplings in it! :) Unfortunately Auntie Martha wont be there this year (Still in the sanatorium!) But the good news is she is due home on Thursday all being well. On the up side, The girls doing the Duke of Edinburgh Scheme (Silver badge) will be on hand. Their team leader and D of E local organiser, Lady Penelope (Yeah I know - but no apparently its not the one from Thunderbirds) Lamington-Carstairs, suggested the girls do some cooking and baking on the night to earn their Cookery Badge. So Arthur has lent them a old book of West Country Recipes. I sometimes wish we lived closer. Uncle is hoping this years event with give Glastonbury a run for their money, Im not convinced? Although he has a local band booked for the evening who are playing for free! Gene Pitiful and the Barn Dodgers. Great band apparently, who also do weddings and funerals. If youre going, have fun and keep an eye on Uncle for me please? ;)
