Our busy week came to an end this afternoon when we flew to Bangkok from Chiang Mai. More later on the weekend, but she who must be obeyed certainly finished things off with style.
A little context, for those unfamiliar with our ways. We have a couple of cats. They don’t like us to go away and we rather miss them too. Normal reconciliation involves much cuddling and smelling of their fur which has a pleasant aroma.
So, we are heading along the moving walkway in the airport on the way to baggage collection. Stood directly behind us are couple of well-dressed, middle-aged tourists who are probably called Penelope and Malcolm and would be part of running the British Empire if we still had one. From their general look of disdain, they don’t think much of a multi-cultural relationship as exemplified by myself and my better half.
Then she who must be obeyed consolidates their world view in a most spectacular way by exclaiming “I bet you can’t wait to get home and smell the pussy!”
The couple behind us look appalled and take a step backwards. I consider whipping out my phone and saying “Cats! She means cats! Look!” But it is too late, they have turned away in and I am left to stare at she who must be obeyed until she realises what she has said and collapses into giggles.
Perfect end to the weekend.

2011-08-15| Barry saysI’ve never cared what complete strangers that I am never going to see again think of anything I do.
2011-08-15| genuinej saysI agree that the woman may well have been named Penelope but feel that Malcolm does not fit the male. Timothy or David are more likely, (or even Hugh). Is it too late to point out the missing o?
2011-08-15| Spike saysYes. She the one cat though, the other smells of poo.
2011-08-15| Spike saysWhich is why you will be eligible for parole in six months?
2011-08-15| Spike saysPossibly Nigel? You can point it out, where is it?
2011-08-15| genuinej saysGood question. I don’t know where it’s gone, but I do know where it should be, and so do you methinks. Youv’e lost me on the matter of who smells of poo, which is probably just as well.
2011-08-16| Pete saysIt can’t be pointed out - it’s not there!! Or the missing word between ‘in’ and ‘and’ in the same sentence?
Anyway - hilarious story. Gave me the giggles.
2011-08-16| Spike saysAh, found it; after reading it several times. Thanks.
