She was just about to turn our light out when she exploded! Zap.. kapow! Lordy.. what is the matter I thought and peered through the dark at her face. Who, I wondered, was going to get the bullet?
It was her brother in Paris. He maybe be going a bit senile, no excuse, she realised that for all of last month and this, he has wittered on about these photographs and where she 'has' to send them but not once has he uttered the words "thank you", two little words.
This is despite having sent him something last week that she KNOWS he has never seen before and that is a picture of his parents leaving the church in Madras just after were married. For she knows his step-mother would never have allowed his father to have kept this photo.
But there has been no acknowledgement or thanks and so she let him have both barrels last night and she cares not one jot what he thinks. "I consider your rudeness unacceptable" was the last line, so you see, there wasn't any restraint of tongue and pen being practised around here last night!
Sometimes you do have to say what you do have to say and she did have to say it.
GeeGee Parrot.
