Reply To: The Taproom

I also enjoyed the films immensely, though I can’t entirely forgive PJ for emasculating Gandalf and perverting Faramir’s personality so much that not only is he tempted by the ring but he’s prepared to condone the brutal beating of an unarmed prisoner. Not very Faramir-like at all, at all.

Anyway, that’s my lot for now – Mrs B and I are just about to set off for a fortnight’s holiday way up in the far North where the sun barely sets at this time of year. I’ve put Nob in the cattery, so Bob will be in charge – at least he can reach the taps. I just hope he remembers to wash his hands when he comes in from the stable.

Try not to drink too much while I’m away.
