"I'm sorry sweetheart I wish I could say yes but I'm afraid Lucy tells me that Jeff's been promoted at work and this new managerial post means that he's
got to wait for another nine months until he's eligible for annual leave!"

"It seems to me Laureen that you are the one who mentions Mr W S first.If I didn't know any better I'd say that you're infauated with him!"

Re: Continue the Story.

Do me a favor husband. I only fancy men I am attracted too. Warren Stevens does nothing for me. If I did not know you better Richie.. I say you are a touch jealous of him.

Re: Continue the Story.

Richie laughed ruefully,"Well I guess I'm rather jealous of all the money he seems to have and the ease in which he understands foreign menus but as for anything else........no, I don't think so." Richie took a few sips of whisky then continued,"By the way I've placed the ad in The Farmers Weekly for another month, hopefully we'll get a reply this time"

Lay off the hard stuff sweetie pie. You know what it does to you. Having money in the bank sure relieves my stress but I dont want strangers on our farm. So I am asking my cousin and his wife if they want the job. You recall they once farmed.

Re: Continue the Story.

"Yes," Richie replied with a rueful look. "But you forget what it was that they farmed!!! All that trouble with the police as well as environmental health."

Re: Continue the Story.

"Sorry darling but the answer's a very decisive no. I'm sad to have to say it about your relations, but your cousin is decidedly 'flaky'.The holiday will have to wait for a little bit longer!" continued Richy as he drained his glass eyeing the whisky decanter longingly.

Re: Continue the Story.

Warren Stevens just dropped in. What does he want. He is a good customer. that is where it starts and ends. Under no circumstances Richie is he going to mind our farm. We need a holiday. so I am still asking my 'flakey' cousin to help us out.

"Ask all you like Laureen but I'm telling you now that I'll have nothing to do with Sheila or her criminal husband!"
