Bliss Tonight....

[gness]

...a play in a little theatre.....Rumours by Neil Simon and it was brilliant.....so very funny even quiet me was laughing aloud....
The auditorium is up many flights of stairs so there is a lift for those who struggle to climb stairs......

But the best laugh was when Dave went to the Gents....a sign on the exit door asks you to turn off the light as you leave....so the man who left just before Dave...turned off the light leaving Dave weeing in the dark.....

As he awkwardly felt his way along the wall to find the switch and continue the door opened and two ladies and a man entered...took one look at Dave and said....

Oh dear.......I don't think this is the lift........ :-)

[marval]

Glad you enjoyed the play, I couldn't help but laugh at Dave's story.

Was Dave still errrrm adjusting his dress ( I've seen that sign by the inside of the gents door years ago 'Please Adjust Your Dress Before Leaving' I think it mean't make sure your fly is zipped / buttoned ).

[gness]

It was a really good play, Marval.......if you can see it do.....x

I don't know what Dave was adjusting, Tony.........but he was a bit pink when he came back to our table...x

[tonyav]

but he was a bit pink when he came back to our table...x

That might have been the running though.

When the lights went out I knew there were two pull-cords dangling - one turned on the lights, one summoned the paramedics ... I thought peeing on my shoes was better than a potential wrong guess.

[tonyav]

LOL, posh bogs have splash guards.

[gness]

He'd take me somewhere posh, Tony?!!!!! :-)

[tonyav]

Mmmmmmmm ;-)

[Patsy33]

Good job didn't mistake the lift for the toilet!
Glad you had a good laugh gness. Is it an old play?

[gness]

It's quite an old play, Patsy....American originally and this was adapted really well for a British audience......

Some of it put me in mind of a Gness family gathering.....I'd say without the guns if I didn't know my mother had secretly bought a gun...... :-(

[tonyav]

if I didn't know my mother had secretly bought a gun...... :-(

WOT, wasn't me honest gness.

[gness]

Could you have a word with Greeny, Tony....only we have no idea where she got it....and all the ammunition.... :-(

[tonyav]

Will do, gness.

WOW, your mom is one scary woman.

[tonyav]

[gness]

Best of it was, Tony....the gun shop she bought it from is next to the Catholic Church......she went to Mass......served tea and cake to the parishioners...then bought a gun on the way home..... !

[tonyav]

Blimey, I hope she went to confession the next day gness.

[gness]

She did, Tony......Forgive me Father or I'll bloody shoot you!... ;-)

[Patsy33]

I thought it was an old play gness. You're Mother, I suspect was a right character!

[gness]

She was, Patsy......but the shame is she disliked me from the day I was born and I grew to dislike her.....

But there was fun along the way....x

>>> so very funny even quiet me was laughing aloud

I can think of many words to describe you, Gness, (all of them complimentary, of course) but somehow or other 'quiet' isn't among them!
