TFIF

So tired. Slept right through the alarm, so I'm getting a late start to the day.
Only time for a quick coffee, slice of toast and a blog.
Liked reading about Richard (of RBB)'s Fluffy. I miss our cat, even after I had to dispose of it. (See the case of the Cat and the Paracetamol)

The ex-Führer of Nuova Lazio returned from his command of the Afrika Corps for a quick vi st (and gloat).
In his current incarnation he's not teaching, just advising teachers and principals and modern educational practice (Kiwi Style). Sounds like he's doing a good job, and his situation is giving him and Mrs.ex-Führer a lovely expatriate life style.
I don't think I could take the 480C summers though. We may moan (a lot) about the cold and wet, but 480C is a bit extreme, even in the "winterless North" where The Aged and Grumpy one purportedly lives.

    The Sellwoods are also due home for a quick gloat, I mean holiday, next weekend. I will try not to be too sad when they tell me about all their adventures

    "where The Aged and Grumpy one purportedly lives."

    Is this a reference to the Curmudgeon?

    "Is this a reference to the Curmudgeon? "

    1 archaic : miser 2 : a crusty, ill-tempered, and usually old man

    Yep
