Daffy's 'a nice cup of tea cheers you up' diary

Ooh steam engines! I saw one unexpectedly yesterday and went squee as I whizzed past in the car

These were VERY small VL! :rotfl: Like, about the size of a labrador :rotfl:

Oh, and the woman serving in the tea shop said asked if my friend was my daughter :eek: Not only am I only 30, and therefore not really old enough to have a fully grown daughter, my friend is 39 years old! :eek:

Obviously she's wearing her age better than I am! :eek: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Eek! Cheery! How un-cheery of her! Mind you, fake crying will put years onto you (even if you hadn't yet done it - I can't believe you're wearing your years badly, she had the wrong glasses on).

To be fair, my friend does look about 12, but still :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: And that was *before* the fake crying/big red eye incident! :eek:

Pippi will back you up, I'm sure - hasn't cheri met you too?

I have indeed and there is no way I would expect you to have a grown up daughter even if I only just saw you in a cafe. If it makes you feel better the woman on the train asked me last week if I wanted the over 55 ticket and that was AFTER I had my hair coloured!
I think that you can put it down to her either
1. having aspergers syndrome and so no social skills
2. her contact lenses had fallen out
3. She had a cinder in her eye and couldnt see properly.
4. she is just plain silly.

Karmacat

Quite right too!

Thanks

(my friend does look *really* young :rotfl: But I also think the woman in the shop was (a) not paying attention, (b) extremely old

She was also too busy telling me why I didn't have to pay for my tea - because that man (friend's boyfriend) had just paid for two teas, and my daughter (friend) hadn't had one (she had, but I didn't protest too much, because I got a free cup of tea, which went some way to making up for the insult! :rotfl: :rotfl:

Jeez silly woman!

Steam trains the size of medium-large dogs are even better...like hot smelly pets! I want one!

It was rather fab

Worn out today. Left the house at 7am, went all the way to London, sat in a conference, did a scary presentation (that turned out to be not-so-scary after all ), then went to the pub (er, ok, two pubs :rotfl:) then came all the way home, coupled with a late train and mad dash from one end of Retford station to the other, and just got in and put the kettle on

<yawn>

In York again tomorrow, so leaving at 7am again - pah!
