Clock Watcher Posted by Flirty

The one down side of my booty call is the crowd he hangs around. At 11pm all the waxworks came storming into the party loudly proclaiming that mine was one of 72 events they were attending that night. Inevitably I got stuck in the kitchen with Mme Tussurd in some weird Newtonian law of attracting things you least want to be with. In a desperate bid to escape I started admiring her watch so I could cue my “Oh is that the time - I’m meant to be anywhere else but here” line. Sadly I never got that far:

“So kind of you to say, it’s FAB-U-LOUS, I just love my watch” Mme T

“Yes, it’s certainly unusually, who’d have thought you could fit that many diamonds on the second hand” me

“Well actually, it’s a very exclusive French make, you probably haven’t heard of it” Mme T

(what with me being from the country and only knowing brands of potatoes)

“Actually it does look very familiar” me

“Really, I wouldn’t think you’d know Cartier……” Mme T

Her patronizing tone was brave considering the number of knives in the kitchen.

“Well actually I did look at Cartier watches, but thought they appeared a bit common so I got a Patek* instead,” I responded while pulling up my sleeve to display my little Platinum number.

Naturally I didn’t mention that mine came via China. I figured that someone with so little taste in watches couldn’t possibly tell the difference.

    You can make a clock with a spud, tis true, but you’d be wiser to clock her with the spud. A large Kerr’s Pink would sort her out.

    I’m can’t wait for the hols. Off to Spud World in Ohio I am. They even got Cara there. Imagine that! Irish bred spuds all they way over there in America. I don’t like them normally ‘cos they’re too soapy but Spud World have a new exhibit of some grown in a special way so they are flowery. The excitement. The excitement. And they have this great video about black-rot you can view in 3D.

    I’d better stop - I’m losing track of time.

    Agh, I hate it when people namedrop labels like that- it’s so obnoxious. I was at a funeral (yep a funeral) in Dublin in August and my aunt started hollering “Has anyone seen my Chloe? Has anyone seen my Chloe?” I had shouted back “I don’t know about yours but there’s a fake one under that chair” before I even realised what I was saying…

    Amy - I wish!

    Conan - lol, you are pun-tastic!

    Primal - a fellow spud lover :-)

    Red - genius, I assume you are out of the will now?

    She can’t be that well orf. Someone really well padded would have a personal assistant to tell them what the time was.

  8. Cruddy Bang UNITED KINGDOM Says:

    She sounds like she was jealous of you and tried to make herself feel better by highlighting her riches. You should have complimented her on the shine of the diamonds and how elegantly they drew attention away the atttention from her face.

    nick - very true :-)

    Beautifully executed! Advantage; Flirty.

  11. Caro ITALY Says:

    Yep, very few people would have heard of Cartier alright. Classy lady.

    There’s nothing better than a good put-down.

  12. Epona IRELAND Says:

    Cartier is as common as muck, Patek is much posher and me oul’ Swatch tells the time as well as any of them.

    Hope you’re having a good Valentines! A blog award is better than any card.
