(jimbo34 @ Sep. 15 2010,15:07) frankly it's probably a good thing i'm away soon

Can you qualify "soon"? I am due in Phuket around 18 October and I am carrying (and at this point, you can start to think "greater love have no man...) a pot of my aunt's marmalade (from one of her better batches; she's 86 and her marmalade quality control is not what it used to be, poor dear - but this is good stuff).
Putting this simply - if you are not going to be there, I am not dragging it around Thailand just to leave it in HQ on the off chance it might reach you. I am going to eat it, possibly by licking it off various attractive bodies or when I find some decent toast, whichever comes first.

I need to know!
I am away 25th sept - 25th Oct. Please don't tell me you're going to commit the ultimate sin of eating "my" marmalade! Made by aunty too, i'm licking my lips here - leave it with the cashier or Ivor, if you're gone before my return. I'll be eternally grateful!

Hm. The only thing going in your favour at this moment is the thought of how I explain to a potential companion that I want to spread marmalade on her and then lick it off when I cannot even get them to do what I want even when it is within their understanding of normal behavour. The chances of me being able to do that are even lower than me finding decent toast.
We'll see. (Keep 'em uncertain, treat 'em rough. Works every time).
