Sunday Roasts & London Toasts
September 9, 2009 –
It’s getting a bit chilly now don’t you think? I have the heating on in the morning, it’s on the low setting but on it is. I am not too keen on traipsing – is that a Devon word? as in ‘Look at that maid!, (maid being a female and not necessarily of the serving wench variety – when you come here ( the westcountry) and get to know these things, you will be honoured to be called a maid, honestly, it is a term of endearment for girls/women/lasses – I don’t mind it, I have been called it all my life. Likewise ‘Bird’ , we call everyone ‘bird’ – men, women, dogs ,cats, even birds hahaha.
I got into trouble once, in a PC environment in the north for calling someone, a colleague ‘bird’. My defence, your honour was that it was a colloquial saying where I come from and therefore I was entitled to say it, so don’t tell me what I can and cannot say. Sigh. Don’t you wish you shouldn’t have to explain this stuff – these things that mean no harm to anyone to these PC maniacs?
Anyway, if you are a man and are called that; bird that is fine but maid is not (please keep up darling) Maid is definitely only for women. So I was saying; Oh yes ‘Look at that maid traipsing around looking like God knows what!’ Hmm and I thought God knew everything. (nods head unsagely)
Oh anyway, I digress :) where was I?, oh yes traipsing around the apartment semi-naked freezing my wotsits off. Oh no. You will find a warm and toasty welcome here. Yes indeed.
I don’t know about you but my attention goes to comfort food (yes food again :) when the autumn peeks it’s coppery head around the corner. And that means….. ahh roast dinners. Oh my word, yum. Now, who on this whole planet doesn’t like a well-cooked roast? No I thought not. Everyone does. I actually like cooking them too. I know they can be time consuming and all that washing up (horray for dishwashers!) So here is the deal, humour me, pander to my cravings and book a sunday lunchtime appointment and you will get…. eggs on toast. No just kidding, a roast of course. Chicken, Beef, Lamb, Pork, whatever. I don’t care. Just let me,go on let me do it for you! Or we could always pop out to a nice country pub and eat one there?
Talking of weekends, you will note that I have been away a fair bit lately and not available every weekend, well I am here for the next 3 (sorry, this weekend – 12 Sept – is fully booked though). But if you want to see me during the other ones and claim your roast, you know what to do ;)… A Roast and a Romp? Ooh er Missus!
Getting excited about my forthcoming London trip. Very excited. Apart from the splendiferous hotel I am booked into, just you wait and see! I have lots of other things planned too. Meeting my sexy London chaps of course!, lunch with the fabulous Miss Dollymopp, a party (yes I have been invited to a party! – whoo whoo! I can’t remember the last time I went to a proper party – sad isn’t it? hehehe). Obviously I am going to do a spot of shopping while I am there, maybe buy some new fancy pants and possibly take in St Paul’s Cathedral. I haven’t visited there before and I am gradually ticking off all the major sites of London during my tours.
Unfortunately for those wishing to see me in London this month, I am now fully booked for this tour (I have a list though – I love my lists! - for if you want me to contact you in case of cancellation) but I think I may be back sometime in November, so keep a look out for the dates my lovelies. I think some new pictures are in order for then too. The fellas on my VIP list will get first notification of those dates, oh and the pics. What? You are not on my VIP list? And you being a VIP and all? Scandalous! Send me an email darling; rhiacharles@yahoo.co.uk and I will pop you on there, quick as you like.
So roasts and toasts, looks like a splendid September after all! x
