Rachel G - Never mind that - do you like the way Eric has casually photgraphed the dates atop a copy of the Financial Times? He probably thinks that we will all assume he reads it!
Plain English Campaign love dates like these fumigated, smoked, puffed or otherwise - thank you Eddie - the diversity of our language reaches all corners of the globe.
Yum - fumigated dates, my favourite variety. I expect that is to stop Hugh inadvertently importing a scorpion or two. I remember in N Z the imported fruit always used to be fumigated - I think they used bromide gas? I know we once took an old harp down to be fumigated by the department, to kill off a woodworm infestation. That was when we found out about them doing all the bananas. No residues, they said. Wonder if that's true?
10. Perhaps Eddie is trying to give up smoking? The pig could be a conscience box. It's a rather ladylike pig, though, so perhaps Sequin has left it there for when she's on duty.
The encouraging thing, though, is that it is very small, so either Eddie/Sequin are very good, or very optimistic.

If you eat all those I suspect you will get a good run for your money. You'll be "speed dating".

Yum. Lucky us.
Glad to have Hugh back safe and sound.
I'm curious about the pretty china piggy bank - swear box?

MORE dates? Though the 'fumigated' bit is amusing ... I hope they didn't use DDT, Eddie!
Will Hugh speak to us?
Best wishes to him, anyway.

RachelG: That was the piglet that Paddy was threatening on the 29 Sept. Nice to see one bank survived the credit crunch unscathed.

Yummy fumigated dates what could be tastier.

Welcome back Hugh and thank you for all the wonderfull photographs especially the cats.

Is the piggy bank a wonderfully discreet reference to 'credit crunch'? These guys are witty - I can only suppose it must be.
