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)
