Dear Readers.
I feel I owe you all an apology.
My last published article was last Saturday and I bet you've all been wondering where on earth I've got to? Ooo, vain cow!
Well, I was putting the bins out on Sunday night when this gentleman pulled right up my drive and began to ask me the directions to Dickies Meadow.
I was just bending down to adjust my tights when he grabbed me by my platex and bundled me into the back of the car.
Next thing I know i wake up in a strange bed, handcuffed to the chamber pot with two wild, staring eyes looking down upon my modesty.
Turns out it was one of my most avid fans, Sir Billy Hymalaya of the Nepalese Mounted Police, who just wanted to get to know me a little better.
I said that I was flattered but strapping my feet to a plank of wood and beating it with a lump hammer to the rhythm of 'friggin in the riggin' by the Sex Pistols was not best policy to win the heart of a ladies affections.
Suffice to say that I eventually talked him round to letting me go once I'd agreed that he could ride me around his paddock whilst feeding from a nose bag.
He's just dropped me back home not half an hour ago and I'm just running him a hot bath whilst I slip into something a little more........comfortable. Think I'm for the high jump later.
Anyway, normal service shall be resumed tomorrow and tonight I would like to leave you with a pop quiz with a twist. I'll provide the answers later on in the week.
Happy Easter, and may we all be at it like rabbits!
