either dont know or 7 or 8
Wendy: “is it 7 or 8pm here?” (in the UK implied)
Lady In Pub (LIP): “that’s alright, don’t worry, I forget too, it could be either”
LIP bobbed down at the knees while she said this ducking her head then throwing a swathe of thick black hair away from her face. As if this action might clear her mind. It was almost like a curtsey and made me feel like a princess.
Her polite engaging way left me smiling. I thanked her for the advice and wondered whether she meant:
- either time is ok
- she, like me, doesn’t know which time it is
I adjusted my local-time phone settings to 7pm, hoping to spin-out the pleasant evening.
