sandra hobbles in with a strapped left knee & permanently sore right foot - it's not easy, you know, limping on 2 limbs ...

gets out broken old fiddle to play a sad tune(less) & sings tunelessly - I was born badly put together according to my first physio all those decades ago ... & a slight twist to left knee when getting up just before Christmas meant ouch!! & lots of physio exercises.

poor me ... pour me some butter on a few crumpets, or better still provide a dipping bowl of hot butter so I can dip them

yum! I instantly feel better, & will feel even better when the excellent Mudcat musicians & singers get going ...
