Crying Thanks Jill
Today I was stuck in a large room with about 200 new friends, all of us potential jurors awaiting our fate. I began reading this story on my phone surrounded tightly by people, and at the first chuckle-out-loud, decided I'd better stop.
Good call. I finished the story tonight at home and cried laughing while reading it to Jack. (The look on his face when I start a giggle-fit only makes me laugh harder.)
Anyway, I just have to know. Did you name them Mick and Nick, because they were... sticks?
Sheena yes on the overcoat. I'm now assigned to more serious proceedings for the week, so I'll need the comic relief.

Re: Cultural Differences
Sheena and Barbara, feel free to liberally sprinkle the following with plenty of s
Sheena, I was ' hedging ' my bets that I wouldn't be recognised. [-o<
The poor man was traumatised because he couldn't ' beleaf ' his eyes.
Sensible move Barbara - wouldn't want you ending up as the prisoner in the dock because everyone had ' twigged ' that you were the leader of the American ' Branch ' of The Dotty Club.
I thought that they were more respectable names than Poo and Chew, which is what Mick and Nick ( actually females ) seemed to do all the time ...
Absolutely Sheena and I'm always ready for some comic relief.
