an afternoon out
"I'm taking my mother-in-law," one lecturer said. It would be unkind to name him, especially since he added, "and I'm looking forward to it too."
She may write for Saga magazine now, but I doubt her wit has diminished with age. Wikipedia has a series of quotations from her. These are the first three:
"Outside every thin girl is a fat man, trying to get in."
"The trouble with so many born-again people is that you wish they hadn’t been born the first time."
"When it comes to housework the one thing no book of household management can ever tell you is how to begin. Or maybe I mean why."
I don't have the excuse of a mother-in-law to accompany, but I think I'll be there at 3.00 tomorrow (Tuesday) - for myself.
