A few weeks ago I discovered my local pub had been taken over by a lad.... well more than a lad now.....I last saw forty nine years ago.....Lord knows how he recognised me!
Last week he said his brother was longing to meet me again.....could we have a get together in the pub next week........
Now....the brother is the little boy who, in 1953, took the pink fondant fancy from the plate at our Coronation Party just before the plate came to me......
And I so wanted that fondant fancy.....I'd watched it all around the table.....nobody took it.......til he did!
I cried so much I had to be taken home.....
Many years later I turned him down when he asked me for a date......because he'd taken the fondant fancy......and I'd not forgotten....
So.....is it time to forgive him and bury the hatchet over a pint of Guinness?........☺
Tilly....I really don't like them any more....neither do my hips.... :-(
I think Hc and Bertram could be right.....it was a big thing in my life then... and even if we do fancy each other, Mally.....would the fancy always be there between us?..... :-(
Only if he buys the G, and the next one. A pink fondant fancy was unheard of at our Coronation party.......... perhaps it should be 3 pints, then you won't worry - the rest of us will!
Yes, gnessy.....a chat over a pint of Guinness sounds the ticket.....you could always .....option1...turn up with a fondant fancy for two and have a good laugh about it...or option 2...turn up with the fondant fancy and stuff it in his face.......I think it'll be very pleasant.x
Do you know, Yogi....I think I will take a pink fondant fancy along.....say nothing...just leave it on the table between us.....like it came between us in 1953....
Be interesting to see if I'm ready to laugh about it yet.....☺
Stuffing it in his face could get me banned perhaps....and I've just persuaded them to consider a pub quiz....and you know how I love those....☺
Zacs! After I'd replied to Hc....I realised what he could have meant.....then thought it could have been what I meant......
Honestly, AB's no place for an innocent like me....... :-(
