Everybody says "Lan's End" you seldom if ever hear the "D"
How are yo Fruity? Still as mad as a hatter I see, naughty miles how are yeh.
The grandson had his passing out from school thing last week, a big do up at the school hall and the wife and myself attended for a while, he was all dolled up to the nines in a three piece suit and dancing away with his girlfriend, it was a peculiar kind of dance that I’d never seen before, he kept forcing his right arm to the ground in tune with the music, as he drew close to where the wife and me were seated I asked him why he was doing that with his right arm, was it part of the dance?
“No grandad, I picked something out of me nose and I’ve been trying to shake it off me finger all night” Oh my God Liam! you are a disgusting little boy, says I.
He was only joking of course, it was actually part of the dance.
Then again we can’t complain about stupid dances, what about the Twist, Mashed Potato, the clam, the Hucklebuck, and all the other silly crazes we made eejits of ourselves doing.
You really do see things in a different light when you are a lot older, things that were so important to us when we were young seen so trivial now.
I wasn’t a bad jiver in me day, even if I say so myself.
