Saints of born-again virgins think to sin again in Greater Cressroads
Oh dear Mike. A bad back? Nothing worse. It hurts but you can’t quite put your finger on where exactly
. . . as if I wouldn’t anyway … Off to St Mary’s tonight so I’ll wrap up warm to watch my Red Army in battle. Will be a close contest, I think. Hope you are ok apart from the back. You need a good massage!
Take care, my Mr Blogsbody,
Lady Karen x x
BROKEN marriage, mortgage, fulltime job as well as part-time, younger sister in psychiatric care, and a son in a young offenders’ institution supported by his mum’s regular visits, Lady Karen of one of Greater Cressroads’ two ports, looking a decade or more too young to be an especially loved granny as well as mother, has met the silver-haired town hack just the once.
Or so be it?
When during the early hours of many a morning in the ensuing 49 wintry days from the anniversary of the death of Sir Francis Drake through to the Feast of St Patrick, the two have gone on to exchange emails totalling thousands of words.
Seeing them drag the baggage of their family dramas into cyber space. Share their troubled times. And, respectively as well as respectfully, come to know each other all the more intimately.
No secret, therefore, when Lady Karen, who betrays no semblance of any shadow of doubt over understanding the ever troublesome offside rule, went in her own precious little time to St Mary’s. But only to experience more disappointment in her middle-aged life as she watched the game get away from her beloved Saints in the second half and leaving their avid supporter to grin and bear visiting Swindon go on to win 1-0.
Congratulations Granddad,
How lovely. What a beautiful little girl and a beautiful name. Wonder what lies ahead for Daisy-Mae, another little person for you to worry about.
I look at my two little grandchildren, think how innocent they are and what little worry they have at the moment. A shame they have to grow up.
By the sounds of your blog, your back is being well looked after.
You take care and don’t overdo it. Sounds like you’re trying to burn the candle at both ends.
Love and hugs

Or another in a developing line of emails inspiring Blogsbody to want to more than imagine a return to life before superannuation and a need to swallow his once, twice or three times daily milligram amounts of enteric-coated Aspirin, Bendroflumethiazide, Co-codamol, Simvastatin as well as Glucosamine Sulphate Chondriotin Sulphate and MSM,
Post’scrip: Oh yes, Lady Karen,your faithful Blogsbody has yet to pop his prescription for four 50mg Sildenafil – ‘half or full tablet as needed’, recommended to be taken 30 minutes before – into the pharmacy of Alresford Surgery, where four tabs retail at a price equivalent to eight pints of Palmer’s Dorset Copper Brewer’s Droop in the embrace of the Arms of Tichborne. Any thoughts?
