Re: The characters of Pattata where are they now?
Must admit I never noticed Pattata in the thread title.
I think Multi-Millionaire Mick is actually holed up in a cheap run-down hostel in Benidorm and has mixed Thailand up with the Patatas Bravas he got for lunch down at the God's Love soup kitchen.

Mick - take a hint - if you actually know nothing about a person then just making stuff up will get you found out .
Firstly I have never said I was "going towards 50"
Secondly? Renting what? Boys? If you're talking about property I've owned my own home since 1986 (yeah work that out) and whilst it's now worth 5 or 6 times what I paid for it its not in London - so not enough to just pack it all in, sell up, and live on the proceeds given that I plan on living another 3 decades.

Re: The characters of Pattata where are they now?
Your sympathy is noted with disinterest. With all these posts/deletes you seem to be struggling to hold it together.

Hope they're not as rock hard as the stone of scone.

Re: The characters of Pattata where are they now?
And please. The scone for afternoon tea should be plain. Anyone who serves fruit scones is just plain old common.

I think some of the excuses for scones that I've been served up in many english tea rooms that have been sold to me masquerading as "fresh scones" have been roughly about the same age as the Stone of Scone, only as you say IT wasn't just as hard !

Then drinks and dinner. It was one of Auden's set I believe who coined the saying "Sodomy was invented to fill in the time between drinks and dinner" - an idea that possibly would have appealed to Henry James, closeted old queen though he was

Re: The characters of Pattata where are they now?
For me personally. Henry James is to Edith Wharton as a Mr Kipling French fancy is to an Opera.

Not really too highbrow. Henry James and Edith Wharton are two of Americas best authors, but both are read less and less as the years past. While great, their works are dated. Henry James called Kipling "the most complete man of genius, as distinct from fine intelligence, that I have ever known." I am not completely sure what James meant by that, but while he is read less and less,IMHO Kipling's stories are still nearly as entertaining as the day they were written.

Boris (Teresa's nemesis) would agree with Henry James on that one.
The British ambassador had to tell him in diplomatic terms to STFU becsuse he recited the colonial 'Road to Mandalay' while making merit in a big Burmese temple within earshot of all and sundry. Then he followed up with another ditty about bringing the British soldiers back or something like that.
-
Re: The characters of Pattata where are they now?
I thought that clip of the Ambassador telling Boris to STFU was hilarious.
-
Re: The characters of Pattata where are they now?
But he did it diplomatically.
When a reserved Englishman tells you that such and such is "inappropriate " or worse still "wholly inappropriate " that's the equivalent of STFU.
Boris just kept on muttering rhymes like a schoolboy who's found with the biscuit tin but carries on eating after the fact.
Yes, hilarious.
