The duck was a bit puffed about the deal though

Well if we had one breast, I assume he is walking in circles

Think a turkey baster might improve your sales!

Heading for the naughty bench.

Who is there already?

Lovely supper of cauliflower soup, then a sandwich filled with black pudding and fried onions, followed by apple crumble and custard.

Have you taken a vacuum cleaner to them?

Clever @classic33 - I finally got round to doing this today; vacuuming a non-working smoke detector.

Given it a thorough clean, put the same battery in and voila: a fully-working again smoke detector.

Virtual cake and thanks given.

There is a book out to accompany the series, and a recent publication of "Miss Marple" short stories.

I may try to find "Unfinished Portrait" which is her autobiography.

Torquay has, or used to have, an Agatha Christie "week" in September, I think. I went one year, and had a lovely week. Her plays are at the Theatre, and guided walks to her home, and various other activities.

It was helped by lovely sunny weather, and a comparatively quiet town after the schools had gone back. The local steam train was jam-packed, fully booked, so I avoided that. Plenty of choice of restaurants, and I stayed self-catering on the southern edge of town up the hill.

There's this copy, on AbeBooks, if you're interested?

Is that what you're calling it over there!

Made some General's Chicken, very hot due to an abundance of dried Arbol chilli peppers, and I am now listening to some tunes by the Dave Brubeck Quartet.
