The Bish Unpacks
By Sandshoe
The Bish is excited. The Bish is having an episode. The good Father O’Way is excited. The staff at Glenda’s Waxing are excited. The Bish has not attended one of FOW’s At Homes for a good while so we are all excited his Uber turned up at the Manse front gate. One of FOW’s specialties is a rousing ‘At Home’.
FOW’s not above inviting a good dance troupe to perform either on the Manse lawn. He has asked the PA’s Morris Dancers. They have showed good form over the years.
Myself I have never heard of any of them. When I suggest I think they have danced off and away to Morris Dancers’ Dance Heaven in the sky (perhaps that is a bit long winded ha! ha! ha! hiccup!), the Bish scoffs.
“Bollocks, Christina!”
I am of a mind to write him out of this one. I keep a cap on it. I see the juxtaposition as well of the sweary word and my name, my real name, sounds with unexpected resonance.
“This is an opportunity sent from…”
“Shut up,” the Bish demands, interrupts says it mildly, “Shut up.”
He’s not happy I think the Morris Dancers are no more.
“No more, the derry-o,” I sing to keep things on the up and up, cheerful.
“We never know who anybody really is,” the Bish opines.

An opportunity for some Morris dancing and I find me best white hanky is in the wash. Bugger.

Well they’ve gone through the roof in WA. Maybe he should get Fiddler on the Roof cast to dance and sing and day/night away.

Father O’Way is not getting any younger. I now notice that when Mark wrote me in as shooting out six windows on the second floor in ‘Father O’Way meets O’Bad – Part 2’, Father O’Way and all the rest of us were youthful, leastwise as anyone could be in 2014. Hard to believe it. We were young once. 🙂

I had forgotten how stupidly funny some of those stories were.

I was thinking that. Man, I reflected, I shot out six windows on the second floor? I mean, really, I do not remember doing that in a story haha, that is so funny and I guess funny because it’s delivered as if it’s significant detail hahaha. Makes you wonder who is taking out the medal for stupid here. It really is very funny. 🙂
