@auggiethebeck.bsky.social Thank you for this, it’s such a beautiful wonderful and fitting tribute. Marv would be so happy and I am sure his gentle little soul is touched by all the love here.

Oh does it still exist? I thought it had been discontinued. Must check out my local B&M to see if they have it. I never liked dark chocolate when younger but adore it now. I ration myself though.

I can highly recommend Moser Roth Dark Chocolate from Aldi. I love the sea salt one and there’s also an orange and almond one, as well as the plain. Ooooh, I’ve just had a flashback to β€œOld Jamaica” - remember that?

That wind just cuts through you! And of course I’d left BOTH pairs of gloves at home.

Thank you so much to EVERYONE who’s commented on the loss of Marv, so sorry I haven’t replied individually. Your tributes - poems, posts, pics (old & new) - have been amazing and really touching. You’re all so kind and thoughtful, and it’s a real privilege to be part of this wonderful community.❀️

There’s always something so calming / restorative about being near the water. I would have taken myself to the beach but it’s 45 mins away and probably would have been even colder and windy. Was good to clear the head a bit! πŸ’™

Do you find they treat you differently once they know you have fluent French? (Apologies if you are actually bilingΓΌe). In my experience the attitude changed completely once I was able to carry on a full blown conversation about stuff. The again, our house was in an area with lots of ex pats.

He and Joe are clearly thriving on this new regime! Only 17 courses though? Staff need to do better! Wishing you and the boys a wonderful Monday!

Sad news. Marvin F Stewart, Tuxedo Cat Extraordinaire, went to sleep for the last time on Thursday 12th February. A gentle soul, he will be always loved and never forgotten.
