Good morning CDR ( when someone reads me )

Good afternoon

I'm just off to prepare lunch. Back later

Two ounces is not much. It is less than a smallish hen's egg weighs. Two MwMs is even less. About the same as a small grape. But, you see, the important thing in Mr Adam's plan was to make sure that the new tortoise was bigger than Alfie but only a tiny bit bigger. The difference had to be so small that Mrs wifey wouldn't notice it.

Oh no! That means Esio Trot is on hold pending Adam's return. I don't know if I can hold my breath that long. . . and the suspense is already killing me.

I love marmalade. You don't know how hard it is to find good marmalade in California.

Good morning John. Good morning all!

We have been on the road for about half and hour now. We have around 500 miles to cover to get to our overnight stop in a not very attractive Paris suburb.

In Dundee they make a particularly good fruit cake topped with almonds

Dundee is also home to MacKay's which makes traditional Dundee marmalade
History here: http://www.mackays.com/our-story/dundee-marmalade/

I am sort of surprised that marmalade isn't widely available in the US. You have loads of oranges!
