GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER?

Yes, I have James of nourishing obscurity here! He is safe and well in sunny Sicily and I have discovered that he mixes a fine g & t! At the moment he is sitting beside me sipping a whisky and munching on focaccia bread.

And now Simi wants a word:


Hi, folks! I have got a new uncle, lo zio James. He seems very nice but he's not having my chair! xx


Happiness Finding Welshcakes

Yes, very true - Simi and I are "negotiating" the same chair but I'm sure we'll come to an arrangement to suit us both. Currently munching on focaccia bread and have one too many whiskies on board but I can tell you, in all sincerity, one thing:

Sicily and Welshcakes are wonderful, in no particular order.

James xx

uh hmm....now just WHO is this gentleman that you are entertaining in your home? What are all the neighbours going to think - AND that lady who asked you a while ago why you aren't married, not to mention Signor Fantastico/Bellisimo. ;D

Tom Paine said...

Greetings to you both. I am glad to hear news of James.

jmb said...

I am very glad that everything went smoothly and I do hope you both enjoy the visit.

Ellee Seymour said...

I had no idea, I'm so very, very pleased. Will we get to see a real pic of him?

Liz Hinds said...

Wow!! Well, you kept quiet about that, Pat!! I shall expect to hear all ...

CherryPie said...

Glad James turned up safe and sound :-)

You do know we will all be jealous now because he gets to taste all those wonderful meals you cook ;-)

Love to all 3 of you xx

Keep your secrets, my dearest Welshcakes:

The Donkey that carried Jesus into Jerusalem said, something to the following,
'Scarge, scourge, deride me, I keep my secret still, for I am carrying my Saviour, my lips are sealed'.
Can't quite substantiate that, because I've never really encountered a Donkey with sealed lips... Hee Haw, Hee Haw,

Love to you and Simi and your friend James from Di, Ian and Chloe.

Should you wish too e-mail me Leslie has my address. xx

P.S. I've posted a bit of pre- holiday silliness on my site for you, have a chuckle at !

WOW indeed, Sally! Hi, Leslie - especially when he puts his smalls out on the balcony line!
Thanks, Tom. Good wishes to you, too.
Ciao, jmb. Visit?!!
Thanks, Ellee. Hope springs eternal.
Hi, Liz. Hated keeping quiet but didn't want to jinx it!
Thanks, cherrypie. Love from the 3 of us to you xx
Will do, Book Owl.
Ms Simi agrees, nunyaa!
Cin cin to you, too, WW.
Ciao, Gleds. I'll tell her!
Not sure, Anne!
Thanks, Ordo.
Ginro, this is James. Thanks and I shall!
Just so, Beaman. We aim to please.
Ta, Trubes. Appreciate your thoughtfulness and will be right over. xx

Wolfie said...

rhtheekAstonishing but not entirely unexpected. I'm sure you are both having a wonderful time together and the atmosphere is fizzling along. James could use a healthy distraction from his blogging and I think you are the woman for that job.

All the best
Wolfie.

Sally said...

What a wonderful surprise for us all - have a splendid time together - what fun, you showing him and he seeing it all for the first time.

Bag said...

Well, you will need to make an honest woman of her James. Pref before the local gossip ruins her reputation.

Glad to hear phase 1 worked out fine. Fingers crossed for the rest.

PinkAcorn said...

Hope you both have a wonderful visit!
How are Simi's negotiating skills holding out? Ha Ha!

Gracchi said...

Such great news- I hope all is well and that James is enjoying Sicily!

Ian Appleby said...

Well, of all the places he could have gone, I doubt he could have picked a finer one. I have in mind a more specific location than just Sicily, you understand.

Nunyaa said...

Lol Welshcakes we shall save Ms Simi's seat for her :-)

Ardent said...

Enjoy yourselves!
Cheers
:)

Welshcakes Limoncello said...

I sure am, Wolfie! Many thanks, Sally. Wheels within wheels, Bag.
Simi winning, thanks, pink! Many thanks, Gracchi. He will relax soon!
A mini-Imagined Community, Ian?
Simi sends love to you, nunyaa.
Many thanks, Ardent.

jams o donnell said...

Haha I am glad to see that Simi is well and truly dug in! I hope James is having a great time

Welshcakes Limoncello said...

Thanks for your kind thoughts, jams.

Dragonstar said...

Oh yes, I agree - why should visitors depose the queen from her chosen throne? Have a great time!

Welshcakes Limoncello said...

Agreed, dragonstar, and thank you.

Bill Haydon said...

Hi WL

Man it looks like I've really missed something here. All the best to both of you; hope you're having or have had a fantastic time!

Welshcakes Limoncello said...

Nice to see you, TD. Thanks for your good wishes.
