Thinking of you JT.

Sorry, I've never told you, all I wanted to say
And now it's too late to hold you
'Cause you've flown away, so far away

Never had I imagined, living without your smile
Feeling and knowing, you hear me
It keeps me alive, alive

And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually, we'll be together
One sweet day

Darling, I never showed you, assumed you'd always be there
And I, I took your presence for granted
But I always cared
And I miss the love we shared

And I know, you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually, we'll be together
One sweet day

Although, the sun will never shine the same
I'll always look to a brighter day
Lord, I know when I lay me down to sleep
You will always listen as I pray

And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually, we'll be together
One sweet day

And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually, we'll be together
One sweet day

Sorry, I never told you, all I wanted to say
Forever in my heart: JT & ESS

Hello Celestial, I am very pleased to make your acquaintance. One of the most charming guests we have had in our quiet (but cosy) little establishment in a long time. You are very welcome!

Please don't be alarmed.

Oh, Not to worry, I', sure it was said in good spirit...
But I actually do need to tighten the security as I'm planning the Embassy Gala for the end of the month...

You wouldn't happen to know of any good bakery around here?

There used to be a couple in the village, but I'm afraid they've closed down.

We usually send out to Bearistotle and Herbert.

Maybe you could make something of eggplants... we have those

I understand you're swamped in this part of the region by eggplants : "Is it possible to make a 6 course menu with just eggplants?"*

Theoretically yes, but I would suggest you add bacon and maple at the very least if you want a reasonable variety. Doughnuts are readily available, and Cowland5 has a good range of dairy products.


Oh, and B&H usually do free delivery on large orders.

* Goes over the list, "lets see: Honor's, Texas Ambassador
and General Consuls, Canadian Government officials, .....lets say around 220 Guests."

....Sigh....

"Do you think B&H are capable of catering for so many?"
