No, not morbid, just very Dylan Thomas.

Kev and The Clockster
In their twilight years, j2 and clocker decided to move to Miami. Although their relationship is purely platonic, they decided to share a one bedroomed apartment, for convenience, in a rather swanky complex just north of south beach. The set-up was much like Earl and his brother in the first three series. With Kev eager to atone for his baby-eating frenzy of the past few decades, clocker acts as his moral barometer. These days, j2 can be seen assisting elderly democrats with their golf swing and gently cajoling newly arrived wet-backs and single mothers to rail against the tyrannical oppression of western values.
The Clockster sits shirtless in his striped deckchair, smiling with approval as he knits j2's xmas present; a white golf sweater emblazoned with a 'Red Kev' name tag.

I had earlier constructed a lovely greeting with a nostalgic riposte and biting retort...don't know what happened to the damn thing, though.

Is there a new button needs pressing or something else.

How are you, my friend?

Today I am once again a new Grandpa.

Little Bentleigh Rose has joined us.

The velvet is new, thanks, and the hand remains clenched against the approaching darkness.

Egad - that was morbid, wunnit?

:)

Ah - just realized I missed my 9th anny, here.

How about that.

That's fantastic news, I trust mother and baby are doing well.
Bentleigh Rose is possibly the poshest name I've ever heard. And I'm Welsh. Your daughter gets props for that.

I'm glad to hear everything is in order in chez-kev, and I'm very well too, thank you for asking.
Although a certain part of your prose did just elicit a double eyebrow raise.
'The velvet is new, thanks, and the hand remains clenched against the approaching darkness.'

I don't know about morbid but it did make me think that you were battling goatse :huh:

Indeed they are. Born 5 weeks early, but both fine.

I helped a bit with the spelling - didn't ever want my little girl to have to explain why she was named after an automobile, even if it were a noice one.

Funny, too, how the best part of me is the smaller-bits-o-Blighty part right in the middle of my otherwise-Teutonic arse.

Nah, just a nod to the opposition.

No worries - for the moment, anyway.

On to you, then:

Where have you been, and doing what to whom?

Ah well, to be honest I tend to concentrate more on the skulking and the judging anyway. The quietness was just a vanity project.

I haven't been doing a lot differently, as it happens. Still bean-counting and blazing a trail for practical gift-giving.

I still like it here and I would appreciate it if people posted more stuff. It doesn't matter if they're different people to the ones I'd grown used to. Just people.
Please make it so, mein kamerad.

I attempted this with a yorkshire pudding oven tray thing for the wench a few years ago for xmas, it didn't go down well.

I'm trying, really - this time of year I get so busy I don't know whether to shit or go blind.

JayPee has been seen here recently, btw.

That was remarkably brave (or suicidal).

Chrome apparently makes it OK though....it's what I've heard.

Hmm, I'm wondering how she'll react to this year's secrect kitchen related xmas present cause it's not chrome:pinch:
