A brief walk in / around Beetham or Yealand or somewhere
Today M**** was off to Manchester for a night out with the lay-deeze. I believe the event was Kim's 30th birthday, but I couldn't possibly vouch for that. So . . . A******, R****** and I had the house and the day to ourselves. During the morning, after waving M**** goodbye, there was a small amount of tidying and putting away of clothes to be done. After lunch, we went for a walk around the Yealands . . . the Fairy Steps, to be precise. A****** did a quiz. One of the questions was, "How many steps are the fairy steps?"
R****** counted them: 19. A****** counted them: 18. At the bottom of the Fairy Steps we were deliberating how to reconcile this difference when a kind of middle-aged couple went by and so we said hello.
"So why don't we just take the average. A******, call it 18 and a half," I said. A****** jotted down the figure in the appropriate box on the quiz answer sheet. Later on, we met this couple again and she was like, "So, you going back for a re-count then?" and I was thinking, "I only barely heard what you just said and I've no idea what you're on about . . . and who the hell are you?! . . . but better say something . . . " so I was like, "Yep! We're all here! I think . . .
Yep! We're all good. All accounted for. THANKS!" A couple of seconds later I twigged. "Ah! Yes! We were gonna round up. We're gonna call it 19 steps!" Man then said something, but I couldn't tell what on earth he was saying either, so I was like, "Yeah! HA HA HA HA!" and laughed. "Come on boys, lets go. Bunch of freakin' weirdos around here"
