How To Make The Best Of Things


'O..M..G! That hat is sooooooo you! It like totes makes the whole journey here worthwhile!'

'Are you planning to talk like that all the time?' Bertha asked. 'Only, I like to give Captain Bill an exclusive on violence but this could force me to make an exception.'

'Probably won't then,' Norma replied. '...............But it is a very nice hat.'

'I know!' Bertha mooed. 'And they had an almost matching tail hat!'

'I love the colour as well,' Norma added.

'It's what I would have chosen if I'd had a choice,' Bertha replied. 'And the lady in the costume department said there was a chance I could get to keep it.'

Norma said she had been given the same advice so perhaps they could ask at the same time.

'Did anyone say anymore about the filming?' she asked.

'Not really,' Bertha replied. 'But I'll be perfectly happy just standing in the background...in my hat!'

'Me too!' Norma mooed. 'Now, what shall we do until we're called for?'

And Bertha suggested that there was a cafe.

Norma thought that a very good idea so they made their way there and although when they arrived they were confronted with a sign that said that it was with deep regret that the cafe had run out of cake they decided to stay anyway. Luckily, there was a bowl of flowers on the table so they ate those instead and enjoyed a very nice pot of tea together.

It wasn't until they were leaving that Norma noticed a rather sad looking figure sitting alone in a heavily shaded corner.

'Hello!' Horace said as they approached.

'What are you doing here?' Norma asked. 'I haven't seen you since we arrived. I did look for you.'

'I thought I might find somewhere to do some writing,' Horace replied, 'but it's all too noisy and I just ended up here.'

'But you've not been here the whole time?' Norma said.

'Pretty much,' Horace replied. 'It's dark and quiet and nobody disturbs me.'

'It like totes makes the whole journey here worthwhile.' Bertha whispered.

And Norma hit her.
