I was out with my stepson, Nick, on Wednesday and was telling him about the blog and how I don't always get the time to do it each day (nails to paint, grapes to peel, halo to polish etc). He said I should do but if not possible, just write "Too busy, go away and come back tomorrow!" Actually, his language was a bit fruitier than that (he used rude words!) but you know I wouldn't be so impolite to my (the) reader/s! So, as I am out most of today (Vintage Radio Launch lunch party...ooohhh!) I thought I would let you see the photo a dear pal of mine, Sandie, sent yesterday (which looks a bit like an advert for haircolour actually). We have been friends for over 30 years. She lives in Spain now with her beloved (await loud guffaws), Allan.
On the night it was taken a few months ago, we had all gone to the Nelson in Wallasey for a catch up couple of hours and then the plan was to buy fish and chips from an excellent chippie (oh how I need a rest from this high life!) and return to redhead Jean's lovely flat, overlooking the Mersey. As we know, God laughs at people who make plans and what happened next was that when we reached the flat, the key wouldn't work so we couldn't get in. Neither could Jean's daughter, Caroline, open the door from the inside! The result was that as the chips were getting cold, we all sat in the corridor and Caroline managed to pass forks, sauce etc through the letter box to us! Then she took the lock apart to fix it(how clever!) which took a while but worked. No way could we get the bottle of champers and four glasses through the letterbox though! You are always guaranteed to have a laugh with Sandie and Allan...and Jean!
Now then, isn't this bit of fun better than a blank blog and being told to 'come back' tomorrow?!
Redhead Jean, Brunette Sue and Blondie Sandie!
