The Highland Laddie ...




A week or so ago, Penny gave me a photocopy of one of Julia's sketches - 

I put down my crumpet, upon which I'd spread glistening dollops of plum jam - 

There I was, depicted on the page, scribbling, still drinking coffee -

I remembered at once our amusement at the name of the pub - 

The Highland Laddie - that looks good - I wonder if there's a highland laddie inside Alyson had said - 

Send Alyson in - she'll sniff him out Penny grinned - 

I said I'd go up to the landlord and say - three highland laddies please - for God's sake don't delay! 

Upon her sketch, Julia wrote - voice of urgency here
