"Metz Darling!" (hee, hee) Whaddaya expect, we were talking carats/carrots and there's bunnies all over CO today. Maybe the "meeeeh" should be "myeah"? Would that be better?

*slaps self on forehead*
it took 3 times reading your quote there pyrit, er I mean "Bugs", to realize who you were impersonating.
I finally had to say it outloud (softly, as I am at work).

I just think you and TJ and Other Mike should start a CO Writer's Consortium.

I wonder, did Herriot invent those names?! I know he based his stories on real characters.
Your parenthetical comment is tops. Your powers of observation are only exceeded by your cleverness. Lovely image.

Pyrit -- the Herriot part comes from the character of Mrs. Pumphrey, Tricky-Woo's mama. Maybe it's a bit of a stretch.

Very nicely done!

(I don't mean to slight you... it's just unusual for anyone to put that amount of sustained creativity & effort into the Short Attention Span Theatre of internets blog comments. Or, put another way, I finds flakes of gold in my pan, from this here river, pritnear every day... but whole nuggets is somethin else agin.)

Oh Theo, I don't mind answering you at all, but your doubt sinks me a little.
I don't see the Herriot in it, but I do see a bit of Rowan Atkinson, both of whom I am familiar with and enjoy. I'm glad you got a R.A. feel from it b/c making people giggle makes me happy.
Yes, it is entirely from my very own insanity but maybe I watched too much Fawlty Towers?
I have real people in my life who are inspirationally British. I notice their every nuance. Prunella *could* be my MIL; bossy and manipulative (but not a flirt, erm, anymore).
I imagine Pru wearing a grand, low cut robe, with flared lace cuffs that start at the elbow.
Early yesterday I imagined Hastings as the obedient hubby whom Prunella treats like a butler (aka my FIL?).
I imagined the doctor to be a handsome ex-British military. I did have to check Wiki to come up with Cyprus since my history aint great.
Last night, Hastings became the butler, which works better.
I LOVE names, always have. Names are wonderful, powerful stuff.
"All's fair in love & golf." is a golfer's wive's joke I think? I've read it somewhere.
Some CO pics just bring out the worst in me I guess!
I had a bad cold yesterday and too much time to get into mischief.
I'm sorry for taking up so much white space.
Don't mind me.
