He can't stay away!!!

You just get rid of him once and before you know it, he comes back!! Today, my friend and colleague David L from Hull Univ came over so we could put the finishing touches to our latest joint grant application. Also, he comes over for a nice glass of red which I always furnish him with. He brought over a giant yellow bog-plunger to fix our department's blocked drain problem!

Also, thanks to Linda S (from our main office) who brought me a giant apple from her garden to add to my "Time Vase" - three apples now, two well on the way to oblivion. I couldn't resist showing you a photo of my eldest lad, dressed up for Sheffield's Fright Night in late October. He usually looks fairly normal but not on this occasion.
