To serve, or not to serve

Naah, none of that religious pish today….
Been down Cardiff Bay for lunch darlings.

It is a bit like that, but the worst bit was the pub.

You know bar – order drinks – sit drink / eat, leave.

Perhaps they didn’t want their nice clean floor dirtied by the likes of me spilling beer – sorry beer and spillage, especially at lunch time – please!!!!

SUDDENLY a curtain above the stage flies open and a trio of trumpeters step out and play a glorious fanfare. From off stage a voice sings out: ‘Prepare ye the way of the lord’ The crowd look from one to another in disbelief, is this what they have been waiting for? A lone thespian steps from behind a curtain and delivers a speach about a guy called John and something to do with sandals and thongs It is all a bit much, the audience have heard it all before, it’s the same story in a new box, nothing different from last time. They were all expectant, but missed the point Wanted to hear the news, but [...]
