Of cancer theories and holidays
28.08.09, 7:31 am

Went for a drink with Lisa on Tuesday and got accosted by two locals who attached themselves to us and wouldn�t go away. Eventually we cried work as a reason for leaving early and bolted for the door:

Lisa: Oh my God, he was a complete idiot.
Me: Did you hear his cancer theory? Because everyone has a cancer theory.
Lisa: Oh yeah I forgot, science = cancer research!
Me: He was all �Don�t you think cancer�s just Nature�s way of redressing the balance, and keeping the population down?"
Lisa: God, did you punch him?
Me: No, I held it in. She was alright though.
Lisa: She was like, �Oh you�re gay? LET ME TELL YOU MY GAY STORY!�
Me: Mmm, please don�t.
Lisa: I was like, �Speak up, tell the entire frickin� pub. Plus, getting pulled in Demspeys by a girl is in no way an achievement.�

Off to bonny Scotland for a week with the boy and his family � we�re going to the remotest place in the world, where the nearest town is 22 miles away. I�d send postcards but can�t, as apparently there aren�t any postboxes. Bye bye.
