We are home
The Bull is exhausted so I hope he goes for a lie down
I will be BBQing pork chops and harissa lamb buggers later
It is ridiculously mild
14C and windless so it really feels warm
Poeple are still walking round with hat coat scarf boots and trousers
I will never understand why folk want to cook themselves!

I am bigger
And trained to get through crowds
And can kick with balletic precision
And a trained dancer’s force!

I can kick those elbows and snaffle hot buttered crusts while they are being resharpened
Or I could deploy a trapeze…

Possibly Armrest old bean
But 4 foot long aluminium canes are a bit hard to operate
And they fold up with knitting knitter and wool in them!
I just find it tiresome when folk see the walker and me sitting happily absorbed with a book or my knitting and they feel the need to cheer me up with a bit of bible thumping at me!
Later on I got a new boyfriend who was much more fun
A batchelor farmer who was at his nevvie’s wedding
He wanted to take me in to the reception and then see his farm
Poor old boy was just a bit lonely
He kissed my hand when he was rounded up by his brother

There was a jokey ‘plan’ hatched* when I was 18, & on holiday in Ireland, that I should marry John Sheehan , an garrulous lonely bachelor with a fine farm & land & a lot of money…
*By my 8 cousins & their mother !

After all the chance to be buried with his folk is hard to resist…
