It is Friday. Did we decide how to pronounce Garage. Most folk round here
pronounce it Garidge-but the Cynthia Bucket lot say Ga rhaj.


I'm a bit schizophrenic on that one. Most of the locals here say
garidge, and I sometimes revert to type and say garahj (not so much the
Bucket as the Dupont in me).
I was going to say that it is Hiacynth, not Cynthia, Bucket and then it
struck me that one is the mirror image of the other.

It definitely *is* Friday.
