October the 19th 1993
On the bus with Slowcoach.
Dreading the shift.
Will I have to carry her off the bus and let her live up to her name?
She was fuming that a member of staff had commented on her getting bigger and bigger.
I tried to persuade her to come to the gym with me.
Which she said she might.
Having banter with the work gang.
Everyone’s admiring my new boots.
Even Boss-man likes them.
I gazed into his eyes as he flashed me a friendly smile.
He always seemed to have a tan.
Even in the winter months.
Was he some kind of sun worshipper?
I tried to imagine him on the sunbed with a pair of green goggles on.
The Horlicks became very frothy as I mixed it at a fast pace!
I had to get them images out of my head of Boss-man or Slowcoach would be wearing the green goggles.
When it splattered her in the face.
Myself and Sophia managed a good one and a half hour work out.
We then talked in the car for about one hour.
I was enjoying single life.
I’d been in 2 serious relationships since I was 16 and personally I’d been too young and immature.
My time on Saturday was a blast!
I’d let myself go from practically living with two people within seven year period.
Not together!
Wow I’m not that brave but this was ‘me’.
The old ‘Orange Tree’ me (1986-1988 plus)
Where me and Ginge drank anything and got up to everything.
Sophia had been on better nights she’d replied about Saturday night.
Hey maybe she got off with the wrong guy?
That could have been it?
The budgies have been buggers!
Ex-pest is here .
I still like his company but he knows the score.
Friends or piss off!
He slept the night!
