Why there is no post today
Posted on | June 2, 2008 | 38 Comments
It’s the first bank holiday weekend for 19 years (I’ve checked) where the sun has been shining each day.
Obviously this kind of weather doesn’t come around very often so there will be no posting today. Those of you expecting a post will remain disappointed whilst I gad about in the sunshine.
Frankly, I think your expectations are a little high anyway. Yes, it would be easy for me to sit down and write about how there’s going to be no post, then schedule the post to post itself at some stage during the bank holiday Monday but that would require a certain amount of guesswork on my part.
What if it’s not sunny on Monday and I trot out that line about the sun shining all weekend and it’s actually pissing down with rain? Then I’d look the right chump, wouldn’t I?
‘Har har’, some wit would laugh wittily, ‘that Twenty Major is as successful a weather forecaster as he is a novelist’.
So the best thing is just not to post at all. Sorry about that.
Back tomorrow, hail, rain or shine. Actually, if it’s still shine I may not bother.

Hey Twenty. We will be seeing you at the Ladies Marathon, no doubt?
June 2nd, 2008 @ 11:56 am
If by at the Ladies Marathon you mean knacker drinking semi-naked on the bank of the Canal then probably you will.

I’ve come over all funny at the thought of a knacker drinking, semi naked Twenty in the sunshine.
The Porterhouse has a cocktail on its list called ‘Sex on the Canal’. I was discussing this with someone who wondered it there might be a torso floating in it…

I was half way down that Post, before I realised he was talking about a blog post, and not that there would be no visit from the postman today, but then I suppose he is THE POSTMAN in ways….
OK more solpadeine…
No more Gin, ever!!!
