You will never be a dull, frumpy, boring prude, Rachel.
Perhaps you are just what a flower-print dress needs for its image  _________________ Ron |

That is very funny, Rudds.
Ron, maybe if the sun shines over the weekend. Watch this space.  |

Actually although I'm not an expert on the image a modern Vicar's wife should portray I do have a bit of a problem in this particular area
You see my former wife made the mistake of circulating certain pictures of me dressed in full religious gear - yes both the cassock and surplus - it originated from a very dubious 'Vicars and Tarts' party a few years ago and now everyone constantly tells me that I missed my natural vocation and they might be right
My main problem however is that every time I visit friends of mine in South Wales who run a hotel I run into this slightly odd and usually very drunk guy who for some reason is convinced that I am the Bishop of Bangor
I reckon the locals have been winding him up but last time I was there a couple of months ago this unfortunate man actually asked me if I could visit his sick wife with a view to doing some kind of blessing and I really started to panic as to how on earth I could respond - clearly I couldn't put myself in the position of impersonating a man of the cloth
After some very quick thinking I told the man that being an official of the Church was rather like being an insurance salesman - you can only do business on your own patch not on someone else's so probably better for him to speak to the Bishop of Monmouth  _________________ Are you ready for a Ruddles? |

That's very funny too, Rudds.
Luckily I don't have to look like a vicar's wife and I don't have to make cuecumber sandwiches for visitors either because hubby does only a little vicaring these days. He was a Chaplian in the armed services but since leaving that he's done only stand in work here and there. He does mainly other things now. |

He couldn't do me a favour Rach and stand in for the Bishop of Bangor could he?  _________________ Are you ready for a Ruddles? |

I just hope I'm on similar form tomorrow afternoon Rach - I've got a fairly big open air gig at Chester Racecourse  _________________ Are you ready for a Ruddles? |
