My chances of hitting you are negligible!

G'night!

When a loaded gun is pointed at you, 'negligible' means you're still at considerable personal risk

It's ok, I seem to have mislaid it.

Dare I ask why the sombre drink?

I thought you might need it, first* thing ...











* mose todd, I thought 'first' and my fingers typed 'this' ... now we can see who really needed the coffee.

Cheers!

Must be tea time ...





... it's past noon but the sun is not even close to the yardarm

True!

No,....not yet.

Ooh I think that's a bit early. What time does that Edwardian father in Mary Poppins get his G&T?

Half past five, surely? So that dinner could be served at 6 o'clock sharp.

Nah, made that up ... I just thought that he'd get home sometime after five, say 'hello, dear, how's your day been?' without listening to the answer and wind down with a drink and the paper before dinner ... so 5:30

With any luck I'll be hi hoing at that time anyway con September!

Cheers!

Some combination hopefully.

G'night!

G'nite!
