Well despite being 83, Mum knocked up a beautful chicken soup, just tremendous and defatted. With kreplach - meat filled dumplings that sit in the soup.

Her recipe does not use onion, uses a whole large kosher chook, water, salt, a carrot, parsnip, dill added just as it's about to come to the boil, 1/4 celeriac. It has a golden clear hue about it. I can't ever replicate it but it was a winner last night.

Gave my brother a bottle of single malt scottish whiskey that I got for him from the airport back in June - smooth as a baby's bum. He also scored a 1.5 meter black mulberry tree in a pot that Mrs WPT rescued from one of her clients who bought it for his flat!! My brother lives in the country!!

Interesting, thanks! Always fascinated by how other people do things (despite my own upbringing, there are plenty of examples of other Christian denominations' practices and doctrines that I'm less familiar with). And no worries! Appreciate you saying so. :)

I know but what can I do?

I've been in love with the same woman for the last 38 years.

If Mrs WPT ever finds out I'll be in strife.
