if I have too much turkey & red wine tomorrow, it could be ;-)
I am an exceedlingly lucky woman. yesterday Vernon announced he was taking me
to Cambridge today and wouldn't tell me why. I moaned and whinged about it,
having loads of things to do on Christmas Eve... So I got up this morning and
went out to collect the turkey just after 7am... Got home whereupon Vernon,
Nathan & I got in the car and headed off towards Cambridge. Driving down the
A10, Vernon pulls off at one of the villages as he had to collect some
documents from a lient. He said...
Vernon got out of the car and went into some property behind a large solid
fence & gate. Nathan & I sat in the car and waited. A little while later,
Vernon reappears & beckons me to go in. Nathan & I duly do so. Walking in to a
yard filled with recumbents of various types I thought "Well, at least I can
have a look about the bents whilst Vernon's doing the work stuff he has to do."
I'm introduced to a jolly chap by the name of Kevin who then starts wittering
on about a Trice that's nearby. Telling me all about things can be adjusted to
fit. I sort of looked confused and said to Vernon, "Wha?" To which Kevin looked
at Vernon and said, "I *am* sorry! Have I just ruined something? Didn't she
know?"
At this point Vernon said, "No you haven't spoilt anything - she just didn't
know about it in advance." At this point I think I levitated several feet off
the ground as the skies lit up and choirs appeared singing, "Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!" in full voice.
I am now the proud owner of a Trice Ice T.
Vernon, however, seems to blame this all one Pete Whelan and is muttering about
sending him a bill. In Pete's defence, I did *need* a Trice long before Pete
Whelan got his and long before Pete let me try his Trice.
Festive Cheers, helen s :-)
p.s. I need to think of a name for a blue Ice T Trice...
p.p.s. Darth Kevin is a jolly and kind chappie. He got Nathan riding a
2-wheeler bent - much to the hilarity of Vernon & I. Oh how we laughed as
Nathan wobbled down the road. Mind you he got used to it a darned sight quicker
than I would. And, as well as the normal flag which comes with the Trice, that
nice man Kevin gave me a rather natty one in the form of a wind-surfer. It'll
be my summer flag :-)
