An apologia

We are sorry to report our first real complaint about our attempts to bring you a light-hearted review of our subject's sad and meaningless life.

We reported that last Sunday he spent the day whilst "surrounded by chums". Now we perhaps should have reported that those chums were the lovely Becky and the equally lovely Dennis and possibly that the morning was spent with Becky before Dennis turned up later.

Our complainant is the lovely Becky who has taken great offence at being lumped in as a 'mere' chum and feels very let down at not being separately identified.

Now in the sense of humour failure stakes this is pretty good going. Now it would be quite wrong of us to take revenge on such complaining but on this occasion we can't face rising above it and so we have taken the entirely adult decision to never mention her again.

With this in mind we should report on last Sunday. After a quiet morning/early afternoon with the lovely Dennis he headed over to the lovely Helen's flat who wanted him round to share some Sunday lunch with her and, ahem, someone else.

A first class meal was duly served up before they headed out for a post-prandial walk. What a wonderful idea, well until it started chucking it down at least and they got soaked. A quick dash into Alibi followed.

Once the rain had calmed down they moved on to the Deco Lounge. On the way down there Helen was moaning about her shoes rubbing so he ended up giving her a piggy back most of the way there. Now this was upon reflection a little silly. Not half as silly as he felt when he walked into the bar and bumped into one of the partners at work who had seen him bounding down the road with her on his back.
