The Comeback Queen

Just how cool is this pink Scrabble set?

I was getting worried, my friend Margaret had beaten me at Scrabble three times running; I thought that maybe I was losing my powers! However you will be pleased to know that normal service has been resumed.

Actually, I really should have let her win again as she had just treated me to a very nice lunch at the Queen's Head in Icklesham - sorry Margaret.

Long long ago and far far away (Vancouver circa 1974) there was a radio commercial being played ad nauseum (pun intended) that went, 'Old Levi's never die, they just fade, fade fade'. Anyway, I recently came across these:

Old actors never die, they just drop apart

Old bankers never die, they just lose interest

Old cardiac surgeons never die, they just get bypassed

Old deans never die, they just lose their faculties

Old Egyptians tourists never die, they just go senile

Old farmers never die, they just go to seed

Old journalists never die, they just get depressed

Old kings never die, they just get throne away

I'm away to have a little kip after a hard afternoon's winning

Comeback Queen in more than one ways. You have come to reclaim your blog. YAY YAY.

Defo THE Comeback Queen. Love the Scrabble box by the way and I blame the parents too!
