...coronation street party.

[WalkingOnTheCracks]

"Ooh, look - there's going to be a street party for the coronation! How lovely!"

"I think I shall give that a miss, thanks."

"Oh, why? Is this some kind of anti-monarchy stand?"

"I suppose I could say so, but nah, not really."

"You don't have to do anything. The residents committee are doing all the bunting and everything."

"Oh, God - bunting?"

"There'll be sandwiches and cake and probably samosas - you like samosas."

"Not enough to go to a street party."

"Oh, come on - it's a family occasion. The girls will love it!"

(Voices from living room) "No, we won't. We're not going!"

"Ohh. Well, will you go for me? With me?"

"No. We can go away for the weekend if you like. All four of us."

"I think you're being very unreasonable."

"Ah, well - there are people I can ask about that..."

Had someone knocking on doors earlier who always organises things like this.

Its only a tenner per adult and a fiver for a child.

Wasnt happy when I said send my bill to the palace. They want us celebrating they can put their hand in their pocket.

I did try doing the polite thing and declining. They kept pushing.

The neighbours have know me long enough to leave me alone.

I like my neighbours 🤷🏻‍♀️
