Knowing that you're under a lot of stress just now, would it be helpful if we doubled up and pushed the colouring books - after we've done a bit of drawing and shading - to save you having to buy envelopes as well? I'm still not sure how the envelope pushing works so I hope this isn't a daft idea.

A whole parlour full of nails AND a studio I can tan my skins in! Is this fine catch of a Donnie really single Calumannabel? Rolf from Harris has promised to bring his wobble board to pass the queueing time, although do you think we could cut the congestion by posting everyones dating profile on ebay? How much do you think we'd get for Donald? His hairt is made o' solid gold efter 'a.

So sorry to have been out of the loop so to speak, other commitments overtook I'm afraid. First I had a wee problem with the door on the hothouse, which got jammed for a week. I had been down there on the Saturday to finish lashing the last of the barrels to the floor, I now have a promise of transport to Penniver on McCallums low loader that they use for the caravans. So, from there it will just be a short paddle to the Fank, as Sunny has a map I'll follow her. Anyway I digress, so I got stuck in the hothouse, luck would have it that I had indeed taken peices with me that day so for the first few days starvation was held off, the remaining few days I'm afaid it was fried green tomatoes and it all got a bit fraught as I ran out of bakkie. I eventually escaped with the help of Neil Lennon, and 'wee sean' of celtic fame, my allotment as u remember backs on to the training ground. By use of smoke signals I managed to attaract their attention and was thus rescued. I have also been arranging my mothers 80th birthday party next month which will be followed by a wee holiday to the west coast. You dont think she will mind giving a hand with the the hothouse do you? Then finally we had a wee problem with my daughter, the one with the wean, she met this bloke on t'internet, and he has only asked her to move to an outback ranch in Australia. She has lost her mind as she has agreed. Fortunatly she will be leaving my grandaughter with me for babysitting, I've set up a special seat in the hot house to attach her car seat to so safety is not an issue and she will of course be wearing one oh thon yellow floating systems. I've had her up the leasure centre training. As long as I take enough rusks she will be no trouble, if someone could just seive some stovies for her arrival that would be a great help. Its grand to be back hope to have more news soon. Did anyone see the news item on reporting scotland during the week about the shy guys on the island and lack of women. Could new Mike no co-ordinate with the news room to give the Fank some publicity. I have again made an attemp to have Auchenshuggle Island status, I await the reply with baited breath. But I'm sure once the antibiotics kick in the cough will be much better.

And there was us thinking you'd gone to Milan for a hat for your investiture! I didn't know you knew Neil Lennon. Can you get me the other Beatles autographs if you see them training with him. Annie B passed her lowers in Smoke Signals last year. Her father was so proud he bought her a bike. Is this the sort of gossip you're looking for to bring you back up to date?

Oh the gossip, the gossip, how have I survived. As a matter of intrest Neil was nearly my grandaughters god father, but the spl changed the match to a Sunday and thus alas and alak, he was otherwise detained...errr...occupied. Just as a wee aside, my mammy, "I'm nearly 80 you know!!", got all excited about the prospect and told the minister it was John Lennon. No matter, only problem was his disapointment when we found out he couldnt make it, I'm afraid the meenister has never forgiven me for giving up my season ticket, which he often borrowed.

A warm welcome back from the hothouse, GrannyE. We've missed you! Maybe if you dug a moat round the hothouse you could have island status?
