von writes and complains that we only throw dinner parties when he is not here. this induces not the slightest compunction in me, as it was he who said it was very lecheh the last we planned one for him and insisted on us going out to eat.

but he is coming back in april. we may consider giving a dinner party in his honour, providing we aren't still disputing punctuation by then. darryl intervened last night - enough! it doesn't matter, he can think what he likes! stop fuming! so i kept my fingers off the keyboard and handed over the laptop for joanna to browse dresses on ebay. but i might just start up again if we have to write another menu. on second thoughts we probably should just go out to eat.
