All That Glisters .......

Oh dear, Nigel was out Christmas shopping (again) yesterday...........


...... and, as such, sent me a couple of pictures of things he thought Darrell might like, heaven help us all!


I suggested that perhaps a nice cookery book, diary or an addition to his festive cocktail bar might be an easier option, as objets d'art can be a tricky one to call, especially with Darrell's ultra de rigueur and refined tastes.


Let's just say he hmmmm'ed, but hopefully he took in my less contentious recommendations. I also trust that Darrell will be equally as tactful should Nigel send him a similar text with regards to a potential gift for me!

Nigel is ever hopeful and positive in his thinking. Well done, young Monkey.

Very diplomatic suggestions and fingers crossed that no unsuitable gifts are purchased.
