Geese

I came to my rebranding exercise this evening with a mug of warm milk, open mind and list of qualities I would like in a woman. I would like someone who surprises me with a cup of fennel tea and a sardine toastie. Someone who volunteers to massage my feet in an evening after I've spent a long day walking back and forth to the photocopy room. A lady who likes to be active and takes care of herself but doesn't go to extreme lengths. My Ex used to ration my sugar intake and regularly hide the biscuits in a bid to keep me trim, I always had a chocolate bar hidden in the seam of my rucksack for emergencies. I would like someone who likes to laugh but not too loudly, my Ex had a honking laugh akin to a gaggle of over excited geese that have cornered you on a canal tow path. As with these feathered fiends you were never sure when she'd turn aggressive. So I came to the kitchen table with my list of requirements and my daughter's boyfriend told me to tear it up and be happy if I met a female. And then he set about wording my personals ad. I have to say it's getting rather exciting!
