Dear Calumannabel, I am writing this as a letter as this sit is slower than if HM Queen was delivering snail mail herself, although I reakon even she would move fater & deliver ALL the mail faster. I am deeply dissapointed to have missed HM's visit as we do enjoy sinking the odd gin or twelve together, she does a canny impression of Donald begging for alms when she's on form you know. As for Phil the Greek, he's always good for an inardvertant splitting of the sides.We do miss Bettys visit from the days when the Brittania dropped by Arran. It's just not tiffin! D'ya think Graham is on half time? I see a revolution brewing... so who is up against the wall... will this ever be posted? probably not... It's not like it used to be when this was all fields.. hrumph!

Donald doesn't beg for alms anymore - he dives off the pier at Stornoway if anyone throws 50p in. He's a major tourist attraction/shipping hazard - we're not sure which. Glad you're better and hope you have a busy summer in the shop.

All is well. Colonial daughters and Mother returned from Fank with many tales. Most of which I find unbelievable.Their eyes gleam and dance when they speak of the "interesting" people they met. Perhaps I will attend next Extraganza to judge for myself. Elgin? Unfamiliar with Elgin other than in Illinois, some 2000 miles east of here.
