Hi friends,
Had a supper
with two gents from Germany on Thursday. Although I do not like eating in the
evening, I agreed to have some snack. It was before 5:00pm and as I had no time
for lunch, I was starving. I had honey mustard chicken wraps and a bottle of
sparkling water, strictly no puddings.
I know, what
you want to say. No pudding, no joy.
However, these
guys were great fun. I know them for
years but have not seen them for months , so it was good to see what they have
been up to in these days.
When we were
talking about some consultants, F said, “do you know what they need to do their
job?”
“Expertise,
I guess.”
“No. First
of all, they need grey hair like mine, so they look experienced. Then, haemorrhoids.”
What?
“So they
look concerned.”
…..Yeah, true.
I guess, they have to sit leaning forward and can look as if they are sharing a
pain with you. Who said German people have
no sense of humour?
I liked the
joke but it was bit embarrassing when young girls at the next table looked us with funny faces when "H" word came out so loudly….oops!!
Then, we
were talking about the old machines in a plant they were visiting in the following
day and they said,
“Well, these
machines are as old as we are by now, aren’t they?”
“What do you
mean by we?”
“Look, we
may look like 15 years apart, but there are only 15 months or so between us,
right?”
Well, gentlemen,
you should know how to look after yourselves, that is, sunscreen and good
breakfasts.
My friends, the usual topic – my breakfasts on Saturday and Sunday.
As Easter is
approaching, I got this from Waitrose.
Hot Cross
Buns with butter…. Bunny chocolates are Easter presie from the gents.
They are my little
guilty pleasures…yummm.
