Loved this, Terry. I shall catch up now, in due course. And subscribe to Rebecca's. I particularly enjoyed Nasrudin's story, "a Persian folk hero who may or may not have existed" (great characterization): the telling and the meaning. Thank you!
Really enjoyed this letter - thank you, Terry. I'm looking forward to my response - which, I'll warn you know, is likely to be weeks (or even months) late, because I'm not writing it until I've solved your impossible crossword clue.... 🙄
Crazy that you weren't allowed to continue with the exercise on referral scheme 'because you've lost weight'. That's absolutely idiotic - as is the fact that someone I know had to put ON weight to qualify for the surgery she required to help her to LOSE it.
Well, that's what they were saying to me in effect. It makes sense to some extent, but it's also a perverse incentive in that it encourages you to do the opposite of what they want you to do.
Hey?! What the...? What's that cat doing there in MacBeth? Stage manager's pet?
I am with you about the waste of time fishing. It is like growing your own tomatoes. Just buy the damn things... Very handsome photos, by the way. You were a real chick-magnet. Still are.
Well, a whole five days after you’d left this comment and a whole three days after I took part in your course I can say that I a) survived and b) absolutely LOVED it! 😊
Gosh, I hope I behaved myself, Mark! I’m very behind on responding to notifications, having been away - but I can report that thoroughly enjoyed Terry’s course! Full report in due course! 😁
Yes: "supplementing my diet with chocolate and sandwiches between meals". A meal plan after my own heart. Such a great post, and the perfect thing to read and smile over as I prepare for my early morning swim. Love it.

Thank you, lord Terry for the graphic summarization. Now I will not have to read MacBeth.
I always enjoy these letters.
Thanks, Jim. I might try the graphic summary approach with a few other great works. I feel it's a great improvement

Regarding the clue, remember that the question mark indicates a really groanworthy play on words.
Thanks, Terry - I got there eventually! You’ll find out when you read my reply, published tomorrow!

thanks, Sharron! Chortle! My cats get everywhere I’m afraid. Anyway, I thought black cats and witches go together!
Nice picts, Lord Terry. Quite dashing. Good luck on the course!
Wish me luck on the course too, Mark! I'm one of the students!
😁😁😁
I wish you luck, Becks. You're going to need it. Snigger

I'm sure you'll be a great constrained student!

Pictures expected, of course....
I'm not sure about that!

LOL. Thanks, Mary 😁
