‘She’s like ...

Boudicca!’
His impression after just one phone call.
And she was!
As we arrived on the dot as strictly instructed, her first words were...
‘Fifty pounds!’
no good evening, welcome or any of the usual pleasantries... straight in!
We sat in a semi circle, all quivering in our boots.
As the evening progressed my fear and trembling subsided a little.
She knew her stuff that was clear, by the end of the evening much against my better judgement I began to warm to her. I must confess here I have always been drawn to the out of the ordinary folk.
As we drove away...

‘She wasn’t that bad!’

‘No, perhaps not, if anyone can help us she can!’
