Catching up. Relieved to know you will not be attempting Julia for the duration.

So any pictures of the first Vanilla Black restaurant? I'm trying to imagine it.

I think said floor is possibly in a museum.

Thanks Matt, native tongue will be resumed very soon. Maybe your kitchen salesperson was a former vacuum cleaner salesperson?

I now want to see a picture of your Brazilian floor. Watermelon dish looks great. Valiant effort on the Julia reading, but missing your Teesside steel worker, though appreciate his time might be more limited and his voiceover fees significantly higher. We once bought a domestic extraction unit for a kitchen that once belonged to Yoda. Height is everything apparently, and our kitchen salesperson really could not have cared any less.

That crumble looks/sounds lush. And I’m now tired vicariously for you having to keep up the JC voiceover

Cheers Mark, it was a toughie, and at times I definitely morphed into Hinge and Bracket. I’ll stick with my native Teesside steel workers accent from now on.
