I sometimes have had trouble, but it was fine this time.
Lot of work to write such a long piece - really enjoyed it, thank you - liked the twist
And thank you for linking to
jayfan's message

Scarves, hats - such fun pomes from all. For decent cat-hat though, you need the MaineCoon(ish) Davy Crocket version! I find alpacas have very sharp hooves so am sticking with cashmere....”
Agree - almost

- with you,
Tsuntsu Bird,
janetshep and
Dfer. Loved the first two series, liked the third, thought the 1st episode of the fourth one had some v good scenes - Martin Freeman's cry out !! - but overall it was a bit over the top for me. Will watch the rest to see how it goes - but I get the feeling it might be the last. - a pity if so.
Still not worked out how
BB is going to get an alpaca round J's neck, now a MaineCoonCat!! (beautiful cats)

Me too and me too and me too

Still watch it - partly because Peter Capaldi is so good - but I do get confused sometimes

Could be so - that's good. Maybe catching up on the theatre world?

He recorded a little message for DS. The sound quality is not great but you can hear it on full volume.
Will try to post it some how.
He looked very trim and sounded fine. Damien was keeping a careful watch over him.He said that he goes into the theatre every day to warm up his voice and check that he is ok to sing.
Hopefully he will be on tonight as we could not resist the urge to buy a ticket for tonight!
Jessica was poorly last night apparently as are a lot of the cast.
Jay said to Sally from Twitter that Big was going to the WE but later in the year.
Really looking forward to seeing the show again tonight.”
Thanks
jayfan - that's such a kind thought - of yours for asking and of J's for recording it
Glad he sounds well.
Hope you enjoyed your chat - sure he must know who you are

He does seem to love meeting people.
Hope you really enjoy the show.
Glad
Big is planned for the WE - wonder which theatre? There's a bit of a clue now.
A little later would be fine as it gives the cast chance to get over the nasty bugs making some of them poorly.
Time to have a bit of a holiday in the sun.

Been making marmalade too - would you believe it?

If J's anything like the young men in my family and who I work with, no power on earth could make them wrap up - no matter how cold. They're all the same - I don't know, they don't seem to feel the cold at all
Are you planning to rush off to Dublin ?
