Where is McCrumble? I'll tell you.....

Dear all

Mrs Dr McCrumble (as he insists on calling me) here. I've been asked by himself to blog on his behalf. As if I don't have enough to do what with the recent trouble involving Ravel and his brother. You'll no doubt be pleased to know that no-one actually got themselves killed in this latest mis-adventure. I honestly don't know how he manages to stay alive though. The number of times....

But I digress. As he promised to bring me back a beautiful carving or two, I said I would send his excuses. You may guess that in fact he is not in Scotland at the moment, but has buggered off back to Kenya for a week. Did he not tell you? Well, I'm not surprised, frankly. He's about as organised as a bag full of irregular shaped marbles. It's nothing urgent, just a scheduled trip he forgot to mention.

His parting words were 'Tell them I'll blog when I get the chance...' Not, as you might expect, 'Goodbye my sweet, wish me good speed and fair weather', or even 'Cheerio darling'. It makes me wonder whether he might be taking this blogging thing a bit too seriously. I may have to intervene if I think he is neglecting his husbandly duties.

Fortunately he should be back by half term when the twins are around. If not.....well, there will be trouble like nothing you have read so far, I can promise!

Yours sincerely

Mrs Dr McC

Dear Bloggers

Oh, you certainly know how to make a lady blush, Dr Maroon. Joe has spoken highly of your writings, and those of Nikki and Mr McShae aswell. I should hopefully hear from my husband by this evening. He should be in Nairobi at the moment so might get online. He better ring me first though!

It's always nice to meet the 'woman behind the man' so to speak. Why don't you start your own blog, then you could both blog in tandem!

Nikki said...

Mrs Dr. Thank you so much for the very nicest of compliments. I really appreciate that. Again, Thank you.

Hello everyone

The real McCrumble here. Thanks to Mrs Dr McC for filling in. She is contemplating doing the blog thing, having told me on the phone that she perused quite a few at random. We'll discuss it on my return next week.

I need to finish telling you what happened in the Mrs Haggarty saga. I'll do this ASAP.

Until then, enjoy the occasional bulletin from Kenya
