Elizabeth, your reports frequently crack me up (sorry -- stupid pun). I know your travails weren't funny per se, but you have a way of writing about them that renders them hilarious to your readers. Thank you for your insights and for your humanity. Also, get better.
I hope your cough has evaporated altogether, and I'm so envious that you're comfortable driving on the "wrong side of the road" (affording dreamed-of independence in those glorious British Isles), but whoa, wait, hold on, I wanted to stay with Peter Quince. (!!) In Round Top TX no less: "Marry, our play is / the most lamentable comedy..." "If we offend, it is with our good will /that you should think, we come not to offend...Gentles, perchance you wonder at this show/ but wonder on..." O proud Mama. Bless summer Shakespeares. I remember with such joy playing Trinculo so very long ago.
Turtle, our English Pointer who has never been to England, wants and deserves a Nigel Farage dog toy (although “he is not intended for strong chewers,” which Turtle surely is) 🐢🐾
Sarah, I went to procure a Farage for Turtle--but the Swing Bridge that connects one side of Whitby is broken! I'm sure I will find another on my UK travels & will be back for information. I hate to disappoint a pointer, surely bad luck.
I hope you feel much better very soon, Elizabeth!
Late to this post (was outta town) and hope your cough is gone and you are able to enjoy your time at Whitby.
I’d rather try a Flake99 whatever that is! Glad you’re on the up n up.

I hope your "natural" cough has naturalized itself out of your system!

Ah yes, UK candy. Avoid the Iron Brew and rest! Perhaps a Millionaire's Shortbread and a wee dram? Be well!
