Keeping My Fingers Crossed

[excelsior-1]

i bought my friend for his birthday, two tickets to see the brilliant and hilarious Milton Jones at the cambridge corn exchange in may

he knows how much i like Milton Jones, i am hoping he will take me with him - i have hinted that i would love to go

[sherrardk]

Isn't that a bit of a back-handed present? Does your friend even like Milton Jones?

[excelsior-1]

he thinks he's brilliant too

I can only take a certain number of puns during a show and an entire performance built around puns (which is what MJ seems to do) would be too much for me. I'd prefer to see someone like Mark Steel.

However if that's what grabs you, I hope that your hints work. Actually, if you simply volunteer to pay for the car parking in central Cambridge (after, of course, re-mortgaging your house to enable you to do so) that might be enough to persuade him to take you along ;-)

I hope you get asked to go with him excel.

You are setting yourself up for a big disappointment if he asks someone else to go with him.

Hope it all works out for you and he asks you.

good news - he's taking me (or to be more precise, i shall be taking him)

it'll be a great evening
