Dear Chums,so how has your week been?
Visitors from the Flatlands
Another Friday evening arrives in the House of Electrofried, bringing with it a visit by maximouse (our eldest daughter) and her husband, His Imperial Hirsutelessness. The extended Hounds are, of course, in tow.
The younger of them, a sturdy creature of some uncertain parentage, seems intent on nefarious pleasures with sundry items of furniture, Fetlock's right leg and our own dear Dylanne - simulaneously, if at all possible.
Canine Shenanigans
Fortunately, young teenygoth is currently attending the local youth-club for persistent ASBO offenders, so her blushes are accordingly spared. Mrs electrofried does, however, observe that our youngest fruit's increasing interest in the opposite sex might mean she has more than a passing interest in the finer mechanics of these high-spirited canine shenanigans.
One hopes, therefore, all will have cooled on the dog/furniture/Fetlock front, come teenygoth's return to the House.
Downtown Little Wittering
In the meantime, yours truly and His Imperial Hirsutelessness are currently half way through a demi-john of the finest strong continental lager, laid down in the cellar just a few hours ago following a flying visit to Mrs Mills' 24/7 Kebab-bar and Licensed Victullers Emporium in downtown Little Wittering.
There are glasses to be drained and waxy platters to be spun on the faithful Victrola, so I will not dally long tonight.
Enter Lagerfried
And so finally, to the cryptic photograph that introduces this latest pasting on "The Chronicles". Grey-haired and bearing a slightly bemused expression, it brings to my mind my dear brother, Lagerfried, a wise old bird if ever there was one.
The observant may already have spotted a brief exchange of comments in the Visitors' Book at the very start of the blog that bears his name.
Joys to Come
If time permits, I will tell more of the mighty Lagerfried in pastings to follow - his is a story that defies description. Fortunately.
And with that thought in mind, I must take my leave.
yours as always,
electrofried (mr)

Enjoy that lager , and play a platter for me ...
I look forward to hearing more of Lagerfried . Sounds an interesting chap(ess) .
A good evening to you and your guests electrofried .
Good evening sir. Many thanks for the pleasant visit. maximouse has retired to her sleeping quarters, followed by the now exhausted younger hound. I am therefore
currently enjoying a wet one from the family brewery. With a change of maltings and the primary fermentation time reduced it has led to a much more tolerable slurp.
The mowta carriage returned us safely across the eastern flats, only needing to stop once to refill the water tanks and raise steam for the final part of the journey. I shall gladly be returning to two wheels tomorrow. The motorised bycicle having recently been fitted with a new elastic band, should propel me to 35mph on the journey to work.
This next week should bring about some interesting fettling and hopefully the opportunity for a bit of "bodge it and scarper", followed by a trip to the local tavern. A charabanc training day is in place for friday, where trousers will be dirtied, knuckles grazed and expletives duly & freely expressed.
But before then I feel it my duty to spin the latest scratch disc supplied by yourself, before being summoned to the snug of my wifes bosom.
Until the next time, keep out the hoss rowed.
H.I.
now now, don't start talking about bosoms! Not to relatives anyhow!!! :O
Welcome again to the House - and a special greeting to His Imperial Hirsutelessness.
What a rather splendid pasting - perhaps I should appoint you as joint editor to the Chronicles!
Please do enjoy looking round.
best regards
electrofried (mr)
