Cupid strikes

So I guess Valentines' Day didn't turn out to be such an insignificant day after all...

There was:
  • 1x engagement (church ppl)
  • 1x wedding (pharmacist from work)
  • 1x birth of twins (church ppl)
  • 1x loss of an eight(?) year bet (school ppl)..

...As well as 1x Broadway construction complications (see comment on previous post), which had a reprise today when at around 4pm, some panelling from the newly erected escalators came loose, and so they had to fence off our area of the shopping centre again.

Which meant nearly no customers for the rest of the day! (= getting paid to do very little)

what kind of bet you lose?

Minerva said...

A bet between her PLC school mates. First person to get something for Valentine's loses, and has to give the other 2 chocolate.

for such a longstanding bet, that's a pretty lousy outcome...

if it were me, the number of chocolates should've doubled every year... :)

Yeah, we didn't think of the economics of inflation when we made the bet. *sighs*

And I thought I'd add there were only 3 of us in the bet - Vivian wasn't in on it.

And Pun lost! Pun lost! *dances around waving flags and singing*
