The sun returned and it was lovely customer day. There was not a grumpster among them. As I delivered a tray to an elegant, elderly lady and her two daughters she said: "Being served tea like this is really posh. What we used to call 'taking-tea-with-the-vicar' posh." I told her I thought she sounded quite posh. Her daughters told me she couldn't be, as she originated from Liverpool. I asked if she'd had elocution lessons. She replied that she'd be told off for saying "that girl's got fur her". Not until she said that did I hear the Mersey.
I really hope we see them again.
