Standby Sheeps

Those of you who tune into my channel will recall on my previous post that I would be making a startling revelation about a Flickr member that shocked even me.

 

Seat belts on, I was out in our garages trying to concoct another version of a special brew when Cedrick one of my faithful homing pigeons came in with a message duly strapped to its leg.

 

In it was a communication from my old Cornish Flickr chum Dom (Balaclava Man) Haughton saying briefly that he was bank rolling a family get together in North Devon for a couple of nights and after he had pole axed everyone with falling down juice he was looking forward to a meet up with me along the North Cornish coast. This could mean only one thing, yep a meet up at Trebormint Strand. One of Dom’s favourite locations.

 

So as always on these occasions I believe in laying on hospitality for Flickr friends. So Mrs P got out all her celebrity cook books and duly dispatched these to the recycling bin and as normal just threw together her incredible recipes for Dom to get his laughing gear around.

 

There were cooling racks of her delicious baking all over the engine room (Kitchen) worktops which she felt were sure to please.

While Mrs P was up to her ears in flour and eggs I immediately phoned Sharp’s Brewery and asked them to lay on two articulated lorries.

One lorry full of booze in order to sustain Dom’s insatiable thirst, the other to transport Mrs P’s delicacies.

 

With all the refreshments laid out on tables at Trebormint, I waited and I waited and waited.

I thought this is not like Dom.

So I launched one of my new homing birds, yes Penelope Pigeon. Penelope is extremely fast so was up and down the A.39 and A.30 like a long dog in an attempt to communicate with Dom as to his whereabouts.

 

In a month of Sundays you will never guess the message Penelope brought back from Dom.

It read………“I came straight home to lie on the settee in order to watch Arsenal play football”.

 

Tell me, would you rather watch Arsenal play football on the TV, or spend an evening we me at Trebormint with corporate hospitality laid on FOC.

I can always recommend a good therapist after you have had an encounter with me.

 

Your Honour I rest my case, punishment will be “The sheep” in the lounge photo while Mr H the bounder next goes on holiday.

Dom knows what this forfeit is 🐑🐏🐑🐏🐑🐏🐑🙈😂😂😂.

 

Any of you who would like to play a prank on their neighbour, full details of the above can be supplied.

 

Thank you so much for viewing my photos, the banter and comments are so appreciated.

Have a great weekend 👍🍺🍺🍺😎🍷🍷🍷😂😂😂.
