Dear Mrs Fielding,

Every day, and I mean every day I bring the EKO tea, as this morning, which gets cold because she is in "O" or "Q" mode. I put the bins out as well. I am above reproach in this respect.

And, I suffer a certain amount of damnation. Yesterday I recounted the story of the SPringer who barged his way into the owner's kitchen and opened and emptied all the cupboards fridge etc. Nothing new there then except that the Springer also ate a tin of baked beans. Some (female) chauvinists may know the old veterinary joke:

"Why is a man better than a dog?" - "Because they can open their own tins" boom boom

So, the viper tongued EKO went too far when she took my story as proof that men are no better than dogs...........

I am reminded on every possible occasion. I have also been allowed to go out for a 'boys' weekend starting after Saturday surgery so I must consider myself lucky!

Marriage is a wonderful thing. I remember the days when the present Mrs Russell would be out of bed, making coffee and presenting breakfast for the 'workers'.

Now there are three girls to deposit at various bus stops (first one 7.45am) this has gone out of the window. Muggins is up before 7, other half hiding from the world under the duvet.

I keep dropping hints about her getting another full-time job. The last one lasted three weeks, partly because she ended up getting the boss to clean the loos!

What fun!

Anyway, anyway, this morning I left and she was displaying "O" sign. This, for those who do not know is lying on back asleep mouth wide open, gurgling. Sometime it is "Q" sign, which is "O", no gurgling, but tongue hanging out one side.

I do love this phrase.
