Last night my wife decided that she couldn’t be bothered cooking after a long day at work, so we went out for dinner. Given that it was Friday night there were a lot of people who had the same idea, which meant no parking anywhere near the restaurant.
So I dropped my wife off outside the place we were going to eat so she could secure a table, and then drove back towards home looking for a park. Eventually found one about halfway back towards home and duly pulled in beside a policeman.
Common sense told me that I should put money in the parking meter, given that the cop was standing right there. So once I had found enough coins to satisfy the hungry little meter, I headed back into town on foot.
I eventually arrived at the restaurant and then went hunting for my wife in the nooks and crannies that seemed to make up the place.
After a quick search (search and rescue skills coming in very handy) I found her sitting with another man.
It transpired that the waitress had asked my wife if she was waiting for someone and she said yes, her husband. The waitress then asked “What does he look like?”
My wife replied “Like a Hobbit.”
It also transpired that the chap I found sitting with my wife was looking for his wife and when the waitress found him she put two and two together and came up with five. So she guided him to my wife and presented her with her ‘husband’.
Given that he was still there when I arrived, I’m not sure if I should be concerned or not. I mean, she didn’t tell him to bugger off or anything. When I arrived they were tucked into a romantic little corner chatting away like they had known each other for years.
I’m also a bit concerned that he was about 6 foot tall. What sort of Hobbit is that?
