Sandwich


The Prof was attending an awards do and asked for me to pick him up at 7.30 .
He said we would go out for dinner.
I scrubbed up, donned my New York duds and was about to drive the 20 miles to meet him when I got the message
Awards overrun won't get out until going on ten pm
At 9.45 I was eating a service station coronation chicken sandwich in the car park

    3. Actually this gif is better than most because he keeps his head still. There is no irritating jerk as it reloads.

  5. That is quite an overrun . . . someone in charge of the awards should be given a stern talking to!

    3. You remembered! No that was the one before me. The one before him was a costume designer for television! How dull

  10. I bet you ate your sandwich just like that! The Prof owes you a nice meal out.

    If you'd given the prof that angry look, he would not of got in the car with you. he'd make a run for it all the way home, thinking "I'd much safer than sitting next to those ghashers"

  19. That sandwich sounds gruesome. I freely admit I have been delayed at work events as the Prof was and I am sure he will make it up to you. He has to.

  20. I think he owes you a dinner. xx

  21. I would have taken myself to dinner anyway!

  22. I had a crappy day and was in a foul mood until I read this post. Throughout the evening I've returned to re-read it several times, and I crack up laughing each time. Your story and the Jim Carrey gif have a synergistic effect.
