Bobbing Along

Dear O'H dear, Lovely Tea Jenny and The Mini Princesses,

I went out to see Mary Doll and Victor today and they were reminiscing about me on the beach when we used to go to on family holidays in Malta.

“Do remember Victor,” Mary Doll laughed. “I kept having to say to you ‘Och there she goes again’?” (now indicating me) “and you’d be right out in the sea!”

“All we could see was your orange arm bands bobbing up and down,” confirmed Victor

“Another fine example of 1970’s parenting,” I muttered.

“We could still SEE you.” said Mary Doll indignantly

“From your lounger up on the beach? I was only 5!”

“She was always a little fish, wasn’t she Victor?” continued Mary Doll.

“Aye she was.”

It’s a miracle anyone from my generation made it to adulthood!
