When it was time for her to take the tube home she told me that her parents had suggested that she ask me to come for Sunday dinner. Which I did. Wonderful people. I decided that I would take a week of leave, stay in a hotel and go to spend more time with her. Her parents insisted that I not spend money on a hotel and that I was welcome to sleep on the fold out in their den. So I did. I've lost count of the times I wanted to kick myself for not proposing to her. If I had, it likely would have been 2 years before my enlistment would be finished and we would have any chance to be together. We stayed in touch for a few months, but I let it slip away because I could see no solution. If I do go, I will take the tube to Cockfosters Station and hop a double decker for a short trip to 37 Southgate Road, Potters Bar, just to catch a glimpse of the house that was the home of Hilary Alexander and holds such memories for me. No doubt there will be tears in my eyes.

I forgot to answer this. You can’t but I can. Slip me a tenner and I will sort it.

NB. I accept Apple Pay.
