Excellent first installment. I shall be reading with much interest, having been a very fleeting part (a cameo, let's say) of your grand tour. It's always intriguing to see our jolly little island through the eyes of others. smiley - smiley

smiley - biggrin I will admit to ~not~ being an expert on British accents. And it could have been Brum. Could have been Norwegian,for all I knew. I only caught about every 5th word. smiley - laugh

The program in question, Bagpuss, was Gardener's World on BBC1.

Loved this: >>It removed the shampoo and the case dried out as good as new. Better than new, actually. It still has a nice shine and no split ends.<<
