The terrible Goddess used to work in this field and I feel that I have absolutely no control of my own actions. It's like having Derren Brown as a wife. That sounds very strange but I know what I mean..............or do I?
Today we went shopping and seemingly by happen chance we ended up at the jewellers. A large diamond ring was on the counter and my wallet out before I fully realised what was happening. Alas, too late.
I can recall some of the comments made the day before:-
" That removal guy is a diamond geezer ".
" Present company excepted".
" That was an expensive but generous gesture".
" You could run rings round that Mr Blunt, darling".
" You are the jewel in my crown".
" You're looking sparkly today"
I just thought it was a white knicker day.
My training is so comprehensive that when asked " What would you like for pudding?", I always give the Pavlovian answer " Pavlova, please".
No doubt the TG will deny all this completely but I'm on to her and her wiles. Give me another 40 years and I'll have the upper hand.
(To quote Lizza, 'Hmpf'; we never have pudding. Lo, TG Ed.)
