Oh Tess (Update - see page 2.)
***Warning - contains no peril***

As some of you (from off-topic) are aware, I met my friend Tess for a walk with Henry (my surrogate son, and dog) on Saturday. This is the story of the event.

We walked, we held hands, we talked about everything and nothing and then I started speaking to her in my truly, truly AWFUL Danish and she asked:

"Did you learn Danish for me?"

To which I replied ...

"Erm, yes".

She kissed me. I kissed her. She kissed me again. Henry jumped up on her (he NEVER does that) and snogged her. We hugged.

We went for lunch and I spent most of the meal with my tongue in spasm (due to my being unable to speak in case I blew it - burst the bubble of absolute amazement that I seemed to have landed in).

Asked her at the end of the meal if she'd go out with me, despite everything (everything = me being mentalist, me having all of the social skills of a badly built clam, etc). She said (and these words will stay with me for a LONG time):

"I thought you'd never ask".

Woo!

Edit: Tess just rang me (1658). We're off to Denmark this weekend.

i got so confused, when i saw the 1658 and the denmark thing, that at first i thought you were doing some sort of hamlet for the 21st century!!!!!!
