Prior to the monthly "winter" bop at the Bowls Club, I'd harvested about 2
lbs. of black grapes from our vine. After washing them, I placed them on the
buffet table without anyone being aware.

About a third were consumed during the half time scrum, but as folk found
out that they were fresh from the vine and grown perhaps no more than 400
yards from the Club as the crow flies, they all disappeared!

To stray on to topic, I shall be having a kipper in the morning.

Noting Ben's sad departure, I realise that Snowie is next on the rota for
dish washing. Hmm, it seems quite a large collection but I've washed the
knives!

I've washed the forks, don't want Snowy stabbing herself with a fork
either! ;-)

Hope there's no glassware in there.....that could be nasty too.

Well there were few of us there below pensionable age!

Who had the bright idea of putting Snowie on the dish washing rota? :)
