A certain person I know bought me a bottle of Southern Comfort ( So Co) for Xmas, which is unfortunate as I don’t drink :) , and I won’t mention who it was , but they also bought me some aftershave , when I had a beard , a few years ago :)
I don’t think this is a hint campaign by the way - merely forgetfulness on their own part :)
.
So we decided to do a little horse trading at work , otherwise my So Co would have been poured straight down the drain – prohibition style , and the empty bottle probably used as a Molotov cocktail against the politicians – Guy Fawkes style :)
Ha !!!!……I really , really need to get my own style- here - instead of copying :)
Ok – enough hysterics …..and I’ll cut to the chase……
Amid all the lurid tat on display at work , I think my So Co was probably the best item , although one of our admin’ gals had brought in a selection of gifts our ex boss had bought her .
This included a packet of - serviettes, an empty perfume bottle , two plastic table lights , and of course one of those magnetic bracelets that you cannot wear when your pregnant and guess what – she was pregnant at the time :)
The latter selection - I must admit was “tempting” - especially the empty perfume bottle for a mini Molotov - if I’m only feeling half hearted about a bit of anarchy :), but my choice in the end was a selection box of chocolates from Evil Don , who I knew was dying to get his hot sweaty hands on my
....So Co …steady on there… :)
There was of course a proviso ………..he returned the empty bottle…….. :)
