If you've never read Lewis Carroll's poem "A Boat Beneath a Sunny Sky" it's worth reading:
http://www.poetryfoundation.org/poem/173163
It's not in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland but in Through the Looking Glass. It's a tribute to the girl who inspired him to write it - if you look at the first letters of each line you will see her name.
Squiggle, I think your goldfish need to go to the Mock Turtle's school to learn about reeling, writhing, and the different branches of arithmetic - ambition, distraction, uglification and derision

I hate to think how many years it is since I read that book.
Maybe I'll get to read it to PB one day.
I'm sure you will Yogi and you will both enjoy it too

My youngest son is coming up for a visit, I'll be back later.
Yogi, I hope you have a nice time with your son
Enjoy your visit from your youngest Yogi
Thank you both, we had a lovely catch-up.
Have you had a good day, Moonie and what's your weather been like?
We've got sunshine!
Have you had a good day, Moonie and what's your weather been like?
We've got sunshine!
My day has been fine fankoo
The weather has been overcast for most of the day but the sun is out now 
Yeeeey glad you have sunshine
That's good.
Glad the sun made it to you, in the end.
I must admit, the sun does cheer me up.

I am hopeless with figures so all of those are my worst nightmare, I loved the Graham Sheedy one - they found a submarine manufacturer who could handle it and the one with the tiny little sign that wouldn't fit through the door When I was in hospital having our daughter my hubby measured our sun lounge floor for new lino, but forgot that there were 12 inches to a foot not 10 - he went metric too soon.
I bet Sweet's sitting by the pool now supping a cold one
I hope she is.

Good job hubby wasn't home for dinner, or he'd have said, "Soup for starter, what's the main course?"
I'm watching All Star Mr & Mrs and cracking up at Brian McFadden (was in Westlife for a while) and his wife Vogue. Their answers made me lol.
