When you receive Sgt Portah in the post, that really counts as happy mail, doesn’t it? My mantlepiece in my study has been redecorated. One of Ani’s RA drawings had to make way for Sgt. Portah, courtesy of Kate. (You can actually see the insides of the card – which I selfishly kept to myself…
Before I get back to replying to the many comments that have accumulated over the last couple of days – many thanks for taking the time to respond, everyone; I appreciate your thoughts and replies very much – I want to catch up with Flat Richie. I had promised to go through the log book,…
I think I am cracking up. An Easter celebration that will be remembered forever. As I am writing this blog post, I am looking out over our residents’ park across the street from our house. It is a wet Easter Sunday here, on the chilly side, but it makes me smile to see a family…
Remember I asked last week what should be done with the Flat Richie logbook? Well, there was a result in the poll, although it was pretty tight. In the comments quite a few of you suggested that Flat Richie should actually stay with me – in my archive, as the safe-keeper, as my gift for…
Hello world! Rather than posting challenge answers in written format every day, I am trying my best to create some variety and switching up content here on the blog. Today I am going “movie”.

This is an overdue catch-up with good ole Flat Richie. He arrived in Germany at CraMERRY’s last week, and I was just too distracted by The Stranger to get to this update. So, CraMERRY received Richie in a massive parcel on the 22nd of January. He took a bit of a detour because the parcel service…
And by continent I mean Europe. I have had a lovely e-mail from Yve with a couple of pictures and a little account of Flat Richie’s stay with her. In her own words: It was kind of quiet at the start of the year but I tried my best to entertain the boys, I offered…
In case you have been wondering – Flat Richie spent a lovely Christmas back on home soil. British soil, that is. So he has crossed the Atlantic for the very last time. At least on this, first journey. He is on his last few stops now, with only three more hosts before he returns to…
