Oh my god Andabelle.. thats funny! My heads fried as it is.. Mr A-Another !?? No way sister!
Hey K.. you think? You like !? I did well hey? Today I let him right off the hook and we got into a text banter, so I think I did well there too (of course I did, I am wittier than a man with 3 heads!)
So.. he didnt call, he chickened out and texted me instead (but dont blame him)..
Hiya Al. Sorry, bit late in the day but would you mind if I drove on my own tomorrow? Sorry to be a pain. Will call on Sat to arrange to meet. Text me first thing tomorrow if you can't get a train. *Name*
..oh my god, he's such a people pleaser! Note the "on my own", so he clearly is NOT taking her away for Easter (not surprised, I think he is in decision mode). He told me he was dreading meeting all his family Friday to go bowling for his Mums birthday, so I left it a while then replied..
Hiya, no thats ok & thanks for letting me know. I thought you would want to, so I've got a ticket. Hope you slaughter them at bowling (well, not literally !). Speak to you Saturday, Al.
and then he replied back straight away...
Thanks al - will certainly be a good way of venting family based stress! Speak Saturday. *Name*
then I sent this (an old in-joke of ours, to do with the Icelandic saga's - just to make him smile):
...he had to leave that place.. because of some slayings (woopsy !!)
Then he replied with a text which just said something like
nothing to display (which I've never seen before!) so I took the chance to send...
...either you are trying to be an International Man of Mystery, or the text failed.. you just sent a blank one!
He replied again (after a delay where I could tell he was thinking of somehing witty)...
Oops, sorry - accident! More like a Man of Muesli !!
So I replied...
OK. Drive careful - dont go listening to any Keane! don't want to be falling asleep at the wheel.
and then he did (!!)...
Ok, sound advice! And because its sh*t...
.. so there you go! More text banter than in 8 months.. (with apologies to any fans of Keane reading along). Oh and I am RELIEVED ! I dont want to sit in the damn car with him at 9am.. I couldnt get away with all the makeup and styled hair so early and I STILL dont want to face him, au natrel (ha, after years of ultra au natrel and amazon rainforest for hairy legs!).
