Hummph.
Having returned from yet another rain soaked idyll in leaking tent in middle of Nowhere-Sur-Le-Sodding-Plage, TheAddict poured herself a large gin - and - the house being otherwise empty - went for a nice long soak in a bubble-filled bath in a candle-filled bathroom.
Halfway through the second gin, TheAddict's thoughts turned to a contemplation of Person Whom The Addict Would Like To Share Bubble Filled Tub With. (No prizes are on offer here, girls).
Half way through said gin-fuelled and dreamy contemplation, TheAddict hears noise downstairs, heaves self from tub, drags giant T-Shirt on without drying self (in retrospect, perhaps a mistake) and clumps downstairs to discover - Minimus (who has not been seen in Chez Addict for a month) and Strange Woman (who has never been seen in Chez Addict before) in flagrante delicto in settee.
In front of the cat.
Minimus lifted head and said the most comprehensive sentence TheAddict has ever heard him utter.
'Hi Mum, I see your nipples are up.'
TheAddict returned to bathroom, locked door, refreshed gin glass and returned to dreams of BC.
Oh Benedict. please take me away from all this!
