Time for a pint, I say! Am about ready to market my new venture, the "gatito burrito"... just too many kittens in such a small apartment! (Yes, still living in Millar's Ct).
So, bottoms up, my gel!
Bestest mate,

It's a beautiful Friday afternoon, so take a pull from a pint and enjoy Slate's amusing article about European and American attitudes towards e-mail.

Hi Natalie,
I'm glad you liked it; that article tickled me because I tend to get chatty in my e-mails (unfortunately not about getting up to beautiful Cape Cod). Sometimes I notice a deafening silence from my British and European friends.
Thanks again for getting over to Oakley Crescent and have a splendid weekend, btw.
xoxo (laugh),

If anybody wants a free gmail account with 2000 MB of storage, drop me a line at oflaherty66 at gmail.com. I've got lots of invites still. They've got ads tailored to each piece of mail, but they're pretty unobtrusive. They've also got a spam blocker if you don't already have one and that handy Google search feature to pick through your emails if you save them like I do.

What time Monty-could make around 11.00 to mid afternoon?If you were thinking of later on might not be able to make it.
Sounds a great idea!

Gotta sort my leave and sort out travelling so I'll let you know nearer the date and you can decide what you want to do.

The splendid American Civil War historian, novelist, and pipe aficionado Shelby Foote died last night at the age of 88. He was one of the best parts of Ken Burns's Civil War documentary.

Dave, that's a real shame. If I didn't know it was impossible, I'd swear he was talking first hand. It was uncanny.

Hi Robert,
That's narrative history for you; plus there was more living memory when he was writing his history. Don't feel too bad though; I guess 88 is a good long time to be around. I read that he knew Faulkner.
Foote had a great quote at the end of the Burns Documentary that went something like "Before the war, people used to say 'The United States are. . .' and after it, they said 'The United States is.' That's what the war did, it changed us from an 'are' to an 'is'." Something like that.

Dave.
What a shame. That is correct that Mr. Foote said that the way you stated he did. I watched the series countless times....
I especially enjoyed his discussion of N.B.Forrest during that series.
Plus he had to be a cool s.o.b....During the series, I noticed the photo of Robert Johnson on his wall taped up there and prominently displayed...A guy who can praise the genius of a Forrest and admire Robert Johnson...well.. that man had to be cool.
Thanks for mentioning his passing,Dave O.

I thought this would be the right titled thread for this one.
They won't thank me for it, but...
Here's our very own Rob Clack and Christian Jaud (Chris is on the left) in The Ten Bells last week with some horrible acolyte.
