Divorced and Deadly. Josephine Cox
Things Bright and Beautiful, I sang my heart out with the best of them.
The collection box got me on the way out. I only had two pence, which I threw in with a grand gesture. ‘Thank you, sir,’ the verger tucked the coin back into my hand, ‘I think you need it more than we do.’ I was miffed. What real man wears a skirt anyway!
As I slunk out, I felt a sharp pinch on the back of my leg. ‘You’re a mean bugger, you are!’
If he wasn’t just three feet high, and sucking a sticky dummy, I might have smacked him one. (Though I did manage to stamp craftily on his foot. It did my heart good to see the shock on his little pink face.)
Ah well, happy days. Tomorrow has to be an improvement. Doesn’t it?
