New Year

"Don't go going to the pub at lunchtime; we've too much to do."

"What? What's to do?"

"Housework. This place is a shit hole, and we've people coming."

"Yeah, but not until tomorrow night ..."

"You know Aly and Nige are coming now, too?"

"Aaaaargh! You just named Mrs Mumbling Nige in the blog! You can't do that! You've got to refer to her as Mrs Mumbling Nige at all times! It's traditional."

"But ... but ..."

"AT ALL TIMES!"

The LOML, as penance, goes and uses her new deep fat fryer to make me chips for lunch.
