Valentine joy!
Posted: Tuesday, 14 February 2006 |
What a wonderful day! I'd just given Chrissie Mary her medication and sent her for a lie down after a fairly tiring session of wool winding when Roddie John came with the post. Well, I was half expecting the hay bales and was excited enough about that, but wasn't there a Mystery Package from a Secret Admirer as well.
I don't know what to think. As you can see there was a wee tray with a tweed cloth, a can of WD40, a pack of Sun Ray Tips and a wee note saying, "Be mine Annie Beag and there's some Duck Tape where this came from"
How romantic is that?
So who are you, man of my dreams?

This is obviously Mad Lamb's anti vet kit, and it's been sent ahead because there won't be room on the airplanes now because of all the emergency saxephones. Is a saxophone an early version of a mobile phone?

What is a man trying to say with a can of WD40? Unless it is the oil the wheels of love.. Oh Annie, don't be fooled by cheap tricks, hold out for true love, and a box of black magic at least.

Someone's gone to a lot of trouble ordering that gift set from Harrod's. Someone must love you very much.

Annie, I had a tear in my eye when I read this - as I suspect the vet did when the manse cat approached. I think it's more like the anti-manse cat kit *for* the vet. However, the Manse cat doesn't like the saxophone, either that or he's joining in, so perhaps the saxophone might be a better feline deterrent for the vet. As for Foxy - the sacks o' phones is the early version of mobiles phones - you were getting confused.
mad Lamb from Westray
Well done! I got a dozen text messages... Haven't worked out how to put the in a vase yet and I can't eat them so I'm a bit confused... again. I think we should have a chat with the mad lamb as from all accounts she's managed to trap herself a husband! And he's not even someone elses!

Clock those Sun-Ray Tips! Has anyone alerted the Antiques Roadshow team?

That tea's worth money! Get it insured.

this man (assumin its a man) is not for you. this romantic gift is a before and after set. you work out what is before and what is after, he(or she) has a one track mind. I agree with Annie - it might be a cheap trick. A box of Thornton's would be more appropriate. Black Magic is dated. PS what IS the best present from a would be valentine?

Oh Annie Beag I love you I'd wine and dine you on mutton stew I'll oil your cogs with WD40 and caress your soul with words so naughty Cook Szechuan Spam on Friday night Wearing Lyrcra boiler suit fitting tight Sing words of Love about you Annie Your words so funny, your wit so canny.

I would like to point out that Black Magic is in no way dated. And the if that doesn't work we use Milk Tray. Papa Doc Marten (the man who doesn't have to try too hard)

You could always enter this tray in the WRI stall at the fank?
