After 4.3 months I have finally ended my  practical tasks related to my bereavement.I had to make about 14 phone calls to the Customs and Revenue and only later did I realise that the young man had not been able to explain the tax to me but I worked it out myself.It might have been easier to take to my bed and lie down for three months.

I located Alfred’s owner.His real name is Luca and he is definitely male.She said he is nervous but he seems very calm unless I accidentally stand on his foot.But the cat always hangs around purring for food so it’s not easy to keep him safe

Do you like growing tomatoes

I had to make lots of jam

They tasted like   strawberries

I can’t rhyme with odd fairies

But it went very well with my spam.

I found a jar in the pantry

It said it was from  the year 81,

It’s 24  plus years old

And still looks like molten gold

We ate it all up on a scone.

Scones are my passion at teatime

Especially the ones made with cheese.

They cook in 12 minutes

So it’s never a limit.

The left over ones  will all freeze.

You need some  more bags for your freezer?

Well ,do get the very thick ones

Or else they’ll be  ice damaged

Irrevocably  ice savaged

What a waste of some great homemade scones
