Dear Nina3,

I have difficulty understanding your aversion to mint sauce.

Great civilisations have sprung up here and there in the Universe based on a deep understanding and symbiotic relationship with mint sauce.

Maybe something terrible happened to you in your childhood that you are suppressing; it is my considered opinion that no humanoid can be truly happy until he/she/it really enjoys the subtle pleasure of mint sauce indulgence.

I am not a professional, but can only refer you to a 'higher' authority on this delicate matter.

You could always elicite free advice from our own font of all CS knowledge Herr Conrad der Googleit or put all your life savings into a course of help with a Welsh psychiatrist of dubious reputation called Dai "the sauce" Jones. Dai is a great friend of mine who shares all his ill-gotten psychiatric gains with me down the pub on a Sunday afternoon... he hasn't had many clients lately and I'm getting a bit thirsty, so please help Dai (and myself indirectly).

You need help! get it NOW!

Baaaaa!

Yours truly,

Peter Py-Thong



Well, as much as I would find the insights of Dr Jones and Herr Conrad fascinating, I can make this a lot simpler. You see, I do know where this unbecoming aversion to mint sauce stems from...

It was on a family holiday one Easter to the beautiful country of Wales when I was a child. I remember the landscape being beautifully green, and also very wet. It wouldn't stop raining.

Nevertheless, we made an excursion to a sheep farm, to learn all about the countryside (we were clearly city folk, you see). After admiring the little cute creatures for a while, what did we see? Lo and behold - it was the little house next door, where they made their living from making mint sauce, pouring it into little jars, and selling it at the local market! Lovely!

To make a long story short; what was not so lovely was the huge vat of mint sauce, teetering a little too high off the floor for my liking - only held up by some rusty looking levers and stuff. And what do you know - as we went by to have a look, it snapped, and guess who got covered in the green, minty goo?... Yep...

I was scarred for life, I was. Can never eat a proper British lamb meal again... Although I hope all is not lost - I hope it might wear off in time, so I can again taste the tasty sauce and find it... tasty!

dunno stuck

Ok, Nina -

if you can't have a cute little lamb as a pet in an apartment; my advice is to buy a nice jar of mint sauce and put a nice label on it ( of your fluffy thingy that you've drawn AND coloured in all by yourself!)

You can take your mint sauce jar out of the cupboard whenever you feel like it! (e.g. when you feel lonely and have a meal you can place it on the table when you eat and have a nice cosy chat....... don't forget to tell it nice, soothing things).

However, should you one day decide to OPEN the mint sauce jar, you must then move it from the cupboard to the fridge - or the sauce will start growing funky molds and stuff and you won't ever feel the same way about it ever again!

(My advice is that it's best to 'keep the lid on' this sort of relationship).

I hope that this has been of help to you,

Yours sincerely,

P(et) P. Ython



Thank you very much for your considerate advice, Mr Ython. Normally I would certainly give it a try - only problem is... I don't l i k e mint sauce!! sad That kind of relationship would be doomed from the beginning... blues dunno







cool

Deliriously so, Nina, one is at Uni, the other still at High School, but they are great and well balanced young adults and they get to travel lots.

I think travel makes us all much more tolerant people.


That's great, Sommer - travelling is one of the best way to educate oneself!

I sometimes eat fish - anyway if you can't have a dog as a pet in a flat they are not likely to let you have a chicken or a pig or a cow - are they?

It is a shame yes, but I also work full time so that would be unfair and I live in an apartment and that would be unfair too.

Lovely, I miss my children when I am in Salzburg, but they have a great time causing havoc.



Yes, I see what you mean - it can be difficult, especially if you have a big dog; but sometimes good arrangements can be made.

Of course you miss your kids - the main thing is that they are happy, though, right?

cool

Hello, Nina (aka Ms Busy Person!)........

Yup - the bestest way of not feeling sorry for oneself is to get on and do things...... like me today - I walked into the city and got my camera universal card reader thingy sorted out and then went to one of these new-fangled thingies called a 'cash point machine' and it was very, very nice to me and said I could take out real money... so I asked for 'x' pounds....THEN my card came out and I took the card and walked away...........50 metres down the road and crossing a 'zebra' crossing (pelicans are nolonger 'PC' you know) I realised I hadn't taken the money/dosh/beer tokens!

'OMFG!' I muttered to myself, turned round, ran over an old lady with a shopping cart thingy on wheels, then sprinted to the cashpoint.......no money!

Then I had a slight altercation with a lovely bank lady who was going into the bank.........

'We are NOT open until 9.30 a.m.' she said (unlocking the bank door)

'What time is it?' I asked her. She just gave me a withering look and walked in.......

Please pray for me that an opportunist thief didn't get my lovely, yummy money! I'll know in 10 days time. No, ten working days..... approximately 'a month of Sundays'.

They had to do a 'report' and it's done by 'central office' (all very hush hush, you know)..it seems that the machine takes back your money if you don't instantly snatch it and shove it in your otherwise unbulging pockets!

Anyway, it all worked out well........ the nice lady in my bank transfered more shekels from a savings account and then the nice machine gave me some of it and I went shopping for the essentials - milk, coffee, wine, butter, wine, bread and some more wine........... only problem was when I got home I realised I forgot the coffee!

Wow - nice to be back in CS........ hope my sad tale made you smile. Got any coffee? I'll swap you a bottle of wine for some, ok?



Have coffee. Will swap. How do you want to do the logistics?? conversing

My, my - what a busy day you've had! All's well that ends well, eh?

Maybe if you had a little less wine, and a little more coffee, you wouldn't be leaving your money hanging around like that...

I raise my glass to that Nina.

I miss a dog, I am unable to have one in my apartment in Salzburg.

You must be looking forward to your son returning home.

I am enjoying the peace this evening, I might lock them out if they are lucky.



Ha, ha - yes, after a while you get worryingly used to the peace and quiet, don't you! laugh But a nice dog is good company - what a shame you can't have one there!

Yes, I can't wait to see my son again - but I'm going to where he is now.

Hi Nina

It is definitely a great way to get over loneliness...

Learning and reflecting is a good thing, certainly when our hearts are bruised and we feel so low and miss the times that we shared with previous loved ones.

I think it is important to be able to look back and remember love shared, even when it is hard.



Probably very true... and usually quite hard...

My children have officially dumped me, for people their own age, how dare the little blighters, sat in my garden in the UK, whilst I take the summer here, before I return to Austria, who would like to come and say hi?

What are we all doing?

Who are you with?

Dreaming about anybody?

Will some nice person come and talk to me, please?



Children tend to do this, it seems... confused Mine dumped me over the summer, to be with staywith his dad - but I'll soon see him again. grin

More time to sit and watch the lawn grow (I actually mowed today!! In the heat!), sit and look at the packing I need to get done, sit and look at the dog who wants to go out, etc. Actually it's perfect timing, and I am getting lots of stuff done.

So it's me and the dog, at the moment... Quite nice company, but in my dreams it is not her sitting next to me on the couch, actually... day dream

Here's to a lovely summer's evening! wine
