Went to Grounded for brunch. As I finished my food, sipping my coffee I was suddenly aware that the place had filled with young mothers with their babies. All around high chairs were replacing normal chairs, and the noise levels increased. Most girls had their hair piled up on top, and tied in a tight band. Of course they wear it this way because they got up late, and didn’t have time to do the hair. Me on the other hand could not get away with that, as I resemble Ken Dodd first thing in the morning, although it gets worse during the day.
The girls sit chatting about “baby” things to each other. “Little Johnny got a question right on University Challenge ” said one ” Sarah got three questions right on “Eggheads” said another. This rivalry continues, as the little darlings destroy the cake they have been given to keep them quiet. Ultimately it finishes up in a pile on the floor, or spread around the high chair.
Another Lifetime to go
