Chocolate Sandwich: One of the Girls
http://chocolatesandwich.blogspot.com/2013/07/one-of-girls.html
The fierce last stand of all I am'. Sunday, July 14, 2013. One of the Girls. 8216;Well, let’s try and deconstruct it and I promise I’ll listen this time. But before we do, did you have a late night coffee? Or some cheese before it happened? 8216;No. No coffee, or cheese.’. Not since the very vivid Morrissey dream. Have I shared such details with Maude. 8216;Yes. They chat and smoke. It looks like one of those high pub tables, only.’. 8216;Only outside. Yes, I get the picture. Anything else? 8216;I don...

Chocolate Sandwich: 'No Bra Time for Happy Hour Girls'
http://chocolatesandwich.blogspot.com/2015/02/no-bra-time-for-happy-hour-girls_27.html
The fierce last stand of all I am'. Friday, February 27, 2015. No Bra Time for Happy Hour Girls'. Maude and the girls were all sleeping soundly. It was late last night and I sat on the sofa to focus on the exciting events of my day. Always trying to do the funny thing. I wanted to call. I wanted to call to say that everything would be alright and that there must be other ways to pay the bills. I wanted to call to say that the cushions didn't match the sofa. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I admit tha...

Chocolate Sandwich: Let There be Light
http://chocolatesandwich.blogspot.com/2012/11/let-there-be-light.html
The fierce last stand of all I am'. Wednesday, November 21, 2012. Let There be Light. 8216;I’m totally with you,’ said Lenny.’ I hate the winter too. It’s cold and unforgiving - a bit like my ex-wife.’. Lenny is a friend and an optician. We’d got to know each other as members of the same quiz team. Lenny was dropping off Maude’s new ‘geek chic’ glasses as a favour and the clocks had just gone back. The lamp arrived within a couple of days. With a cupboard full of immune boosting vitamins, St. 8217; asked...

Chocolate Sandwich: 'Seeing the Bigger Picture'
http://chocolatesandwich.blogspot.com/2015/01/seeing-bigger-picture.html
The fierce last stand of all I am'. Tuesday, January 27, 2015. Seeing the Bigger Picture'. This is a competency-based interview and the first competency we'll cover is 'Seeing the Bigger Picture'". I had revised all the competencies and I certainly knew the gist of this one. I repeated it to myself:. Seeing the Bigger Picture. Seeing the Bigger Picture.". The interviewer closed her mouth. This pulled the shutters down on her indulgent smile and signalled procedural closure. I put on a 'just think...He's ...

Chocolate Sandwich: Chim Chim Cher-oo
http://chocolatesandwich.blogspot.com/2012/11/chim-chim-cheroo.html
The fierce last stand of all I am'. Wednesday, November 28, 2012. 8216;I really think you should go for it! Make your own hours, meet people, niche market. 163;50 a pop, 10 jobs on a good day. It’s a no-brainer.’. My nephew Lance had been listening in and his enthusiasm was a little startling. Lance is tall, like his uncle. His large hands were flailing wildly as he spoke and they seemed well within my personal space. 8216;Would you do it? He stilled his hands. 8216;Well no, obviously.’. 8216;Seriously, ...

Chocolate Sandwich: 'it might make you a little bit woozy....'
http://chocolatesandwich.blogspot.com/2011/11/it-might-make-you-little-bit-woozy.html
The fierce last stand of all I am'. Saturday, November 26, 2011. It might make you a little bit woozy.'. The only option left for paramedics in a small vehicle who can’t right an upturned house husband is to call an ambulance - so an ambulance was called. Clive was happy with the fact that the ambulance was in no hurry and squeezed in a few more telly questions to Maude, before surprising her with a fan-like hug and kiss as he made his exit. Robert looked vaguely embarrassed and waved awkwardly. I was, a...

Chocolate Sandwich: 'Happy Place'
http://chocolatesandwich.blogspot.com/2015/02/happy-place.html
The fierce last stand of all I am'. Wednesday, February 04, 2015. 8216;Wake her up! 8216;She is awake, Dad.’. 8216;So she is. Is that her talking? 8216;Yes. She’s talking to Clarence. 8216;She’s like her mother – she’d talk to a lamp-post.’. Bernadette was cheerfully engaging with the dementia patient in the bed opposite. 8216;How are you doing Clarence? Clarence held his forehead in a very woeful attitude and then responded in a heavy West Indian accent:. I’m under pressure! 8216;Hey, that’s mine! Dad r...
