Dear Drago,
With a few tenners placed in the right pocket, I managed to get the cleaner and the hotel to drop the charges.
I'm back home again now with that woman up the road. She did me the honour of accepting my invitation to dinner at my house.
I was just a little concerned that she wanted to pay bail for that Dave character, who has got himself into some sort of bother. Something to do with a child's tricycle. Don't really know the details, but why is putting up his bail money.
Dinner went really well and I really pushed the boat out and did steak and kidney pie and oven chips. I got a lovely bottle of wine from that guy in the corner of the market. You can't go wrong at two quid a bottle. I want to create a good impression after all.
Unfortunately, I just realised the Fray Bentos steak and kidney pie he sold me was best before 12th February, 1998. I thought the tin was a wee bit rusty as I was opening it.
Now I'm paranoid I might have given her food poisoning due to the out of date pie. She ran to the toilet ninety minutes ago and hasn't come back since.
Should I be concerned? Can I be charged with anything?
Regards,
Aubrey
