Is this fellow for real, I wondered. You may find it gratifying to know that I have subscribed to your blog (what an ungainly word, what?) via my feed aggregator (another ghastly modern phrase). Meanwhile, unbeknownst to any of us, it appears that we have had Milord and Milady in common all along. When I read this morning of your banquet at their new domain, I was astonished to see their names. And this evening, by happenstance, when I was perusing Milady's blog I see you mentioned in her blogroll (will these horrors of the language never cease?). It confirmed to me that indeed the blogosphere (again, the butchering of the English language) is a very tiny place. I remain your humble and most absequious servant, Madame Yum-Yum Butterfly Dear Sir, I was most intrigued to come across your rather amusing discourse via that most modern of contraptions – that thing called Twitter – just the other day.

She is a Treasure and has cooked many a Lemon Meringue for generations of Collarbones. However, nothing to prevent your future august presence at our future dining table if you promise to only sample her culinary delights. :) It would take more than a sovereign to lure away my Cook.
