A Different Kind of Plastering

Now den

Is it my DIY activities or smutty sense of humour that's rubbed off on Claire, recently...
She was chairing a small editorial meeting recently (her second as the new senior producer - see below), and the team was running through production issues and problems.
After my ramblings about Grassroots, she turned to the producer of the gardening programme, The Beechgrv Pottng Shed, Frieda Morrisn, and asked about gap in her programme: "Did you manage to fill your hole?"
Of course, I spotted it first (I AM THE KING!!), then someone else got it, then Claire herself... and that's when I snatched up my mobile phone and took this snap.

And Frieda? She sat stoney faced. We can only speculate on the meaning of that. Isn't life wonderful!
PS. I think I've mentioned to most on the phone at some point or another that Claire has got a new job at the Beeb. She's now senior producer, in charge of speech radio in Aberdeen. It's a really good job, right up her street. And I can remember when Mum first met her about three years ago, she was saying things like, "You'll be able to get Claire to do that photocopying for you? etc" It's me who'll be doing the photocooying, now!
