The Compers Inn - Part 9

Cheeky_Chicken

Well done gert, and fantastic news VG - hopefully you can put it all behind you and start looking forward to Christmas now



Well I've just been out for lunch with my mum & her neighbour, Vera, to celebrate her 90th birthday :rolleyes:

Lovely lunch, but the conversation was hard work.

Me: Have you looked at the menu Vera, how about the Sea Bass?
Vera: I had prawns on Monday
Me: So don't you want fish then?
Vera: I might have salmon
Me: Is that what you fancy? Salmon
Vera: There's no puddings on this menu....
Me: Do you want to look at the desert menu before you order your main?
Vera: I dont usually have a pudding
Me: Are you having salmon then?
Vera: I had prawns on Monday

Mum was just sat there laughing at me

Cheeky - hope you are healing well, love the little woohoo smilie

Sounds like you had loads of 'fun' at lunch! But you've left us all hanging.... what did Vera have to celebrate her birthday? (Oohh just had a thought - perhaps she was hoping for birthday cake & that was why the 'no puddings on the menu comment' was made?)!

To end the suspense, Vera went for..........................salmon & prawns (even though she had those on Monday :rolleyes: ) in white wine sauce. She only ate half the salmon & I had to ask for a doggy bag for her - thought she was going to give it to me for Buffy, but it went in her enormous handbag probably never to be seen again :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I had spicy bean casserole - scrummy!!

And in fairness, I have to say that Vera is a lovely lady, but her conversation isn't exactly linear!:D

Well today's cake sale and sweepstake has raised over £75 for Children in Need, am dead chuffed with that! :):)

toomanykids

Well Done Splodz to you and your workmates :T:T:T Be nice if you got a mention tonight!

Kids said their Primary school had raised £500 but I me thinks there's chinese whispers afoot, its a wee school and that's an awfully exact figure
