I spoke to the vicar the other day [it's all right I crossed myself first and had a wash] to discuss reaffirming my vows to the terrible Goddess.



He said I should use the traditional words.

This was what he suggested for the TG.

Do you take Daddy Papersurfer
to have and to hold up,
from this day forward [which probably won't be long];
for better, for worse for wear,
for richer [I doubt it looking at the state of his shoes], for poorer [after all the health care fees are paid],
in sickness [starting now] and in health [that will be the 11th July through to the 14th],
to love [from a safe distance] and to cherish [with the aid of pads].
till death do you part ?[hurry up for goodness sake, there's not much time!]

He then asked if she was in her right mind - a thoughtful fellow.

I don't know whether to suggest the idea to her - there are expenses involved.

(I'm not going to reaffirm anything; the drugs have worn off now. Lo,TG Ed)

[Fracas is disappearing into the distance in the voting competition on FuelmyBlog. I was hoping to take the TG away for a holiday with the winnings. She hasn't had a holiday for over 40 years - since we got married actually. It doesn't really matter, of course, and at least Fracas will be able to buy a tank full of petrol for her Rolls Royce, which will be nice for her. I was chatting to her chauffeur the other day, and he said she was a charming employer, and knew all the staff by name including her toenail cleaner. Anyway, who you vote for, is your choice of course. I just thought I'd keep you up to date]
