Log Cabin with Brian and Belinda Boffington-Bly



It seems that the BOFs haven't quite grasped the fact that we don't particularly like them.

We received the following email on Sunday;

Dear Sir and Madam;

It has come to our attention that you are full of admiration for people of our class.  We are delighted with this; because in this day and age our standards are often frowned upon.  It's not our fault that we have bags of cash, 4 houses, a villa in Venice and seventeen horses in the back garden - we're just blessed.


It is thoroughly refreshing when we learn of people like you.  Though you will never have a chandelier in your downstairs guest bathroom, though the thought of a heated pool in your kitchen will only ever be a dream, we think you're wonderful for showing a deep and honest admiration for folks who are much better than you.


To show our appreciation, please find attached a video for your delectation.  We thought you would simply adore to see our little log cabin in Wales!


With all best wishes;

Brian and Belinda Boffington-Bly
This email was sent from my GooseBerry. 


Needless to say, we were gobsmacked.  Not by their palpable temerity and complete lack of understanding...but by the utter hilarity.  Once we'd stopped laughing, we uploaded it to YouTube for your enjoyment.


TALLY HO!

Samuel and Sybil's Apartment

This weekend, Samuel and Sybil decided to have a break - away from the bright lights and rich, diverse culture of Blaenau Ffestini(g)og.  They packed their factor 50 sun cream and Welsh dragon beach towels...and headed for the tropical climes of the Dyfi Valley.

They sent us this video of their accommodation.  We're not sure they liked it; but we must admit that we were mightily impressed with their eloquent and insightful commentary as they guided us around their Lapwing apartment.

Phil and Kirstie should be worried.
