I have a penchant for
bacon sand wedge. The cafe round the corner and I have a little arrangement
where I phone and order and they send round this little old man to deliver it. He’s
probably 70. and spends most of his time washing up, smoking or going to the bookies
next to my shop so I don’t feel bad about making a pensioner bring me food. the
one thing if failed to mention is he speaks absolutely no English. So most encounters
are him making a hello noise and me saying thank you. If I had to make a guess
id say he may be Turkish. But I don’t know. Anyway there’s been a few times
when he has laughed like a drain. One was when he came in my shop and I was
under the counter plugging in something then popped up and laughed so hard he nearly
fell over. The second was when a bird flew into my shop window. He found that
even more hysterical. Then today I have a new banner in the window. With wolf
on it in silhouette. He was laughing and pointing at it, grinning a weird not
as many teeth and he should have smile at me. Then made the heavy metal/ horns/
sign of the devil hand gesture and me. Handed me my sand wedge and was still laughing
loudly 30 yards up the road.
