Thank you for the kind offer, you had me at hot water and the shooting lodge in the highlands sounds fantastic for a quiet (or not so quiet ) getaway
Although as my mum used to say, be careful what you wish for
Oh your mum sounds like a very profound & intellegent woman Caroline, shame these things are not always hereditary! Oh well, if you're not interested in my offer I think I'll give Tinder a bash.
Good luck with the fire & I hope you manage to get a bath soon or people will be reluctant to stand downwind of you.
