I did enjoy it too, and found the 'tit' absolutely hilarious, when I saw him arrive for the first visit with the hat and the red trousers, I thought 'what a tit'. You could tell from the elegant hand flapping at the conference where you first saw the three of them, that this was going to be a poseurs joy.
As George said, nice house, mind you the thing I was most jealous of was the raised beds, and all the lovely fresh veg.
Good luck to you both, and more power to your elbow.
Giok
