short-lived.
He’ll
be
joining
us
on
this
chat
room
shortly
and

I’ll
be
able
to
say
those
four
magical
words,
“I
told
you
so.”
I

don’t
want
to
have
to
say
it
though.
He’s
my
friend
and
I
want

him
to
be
happy.
But
that
woman
is
evil,
I
can
sense
it.

Divorced_1:

No,
divorce
is
evil,
isn’t
that
right
UnsureOne?

Ha
ha
ha
ha.

That’s
not
funny.

All
she’s
done
is
laugh
all
night.
I
think
Wildflower
has
been

sampling
the
wildflower
if
you
know
what
I
mean.

Wildflower:

Divorced_1:

You’re
too
hard
on
her,
Divorced_1.

Oh
don’t
be
silly,
she
loves
it.
She
comes
back
night
after

night
doesn’t
she?
I
think
we’re
the
only
bit
of
adult
conver-

sation
she
has
all
day.

Wildflower:

So
did
everyone
enjoy
their
Christmas?

I
haven’t
stopped
partying
all
week.
It’s
been
great.
I’ve
never

sat
on
so
many
Santas’
laps
in
my
life.
Ha
ha.
Anyway
I
have

to
go;
I
have
to
get
ready
for
a
fancy
dress
tonight.
I’m
going

as
a
playboy
bunny.
Bye!

What
about
everybody
else?

I
think
I
put
on
about
two
stone.

It
was,
you
know,
a
quiet
one.

Television
was
good
this
year
though.

Yeah.

Yeah,
I
like
the
Christmas
specials.

Good
for
occupying
the
kids
too.

Yeah.

Good
documentaries
too.

Mmmm.

Watched
that
one
on
polar
bears
last
night.

I
saw
that
one
too
.
.
.

I
hadn’t
realized
that
all
polar
bears
are
left-handed.

Yes,
that
was
interesting
.
.
.
and
the
snails
.
.
.

They’re
left-handed
too?

No
but
they
can
sleep
for
three
years
apparently.

Lucky
buggers
.
.
.

Yes
TV
is
good
at
Christmas
alright
.
.
.

It’s
kind
of
nice
to
be
alone
at
Christmas,
to
have
a
bit
of

peace
and
quiet.

Total
peace
and
quiet.

Yes
it’s
very
quiet
.
.
.

You
know,
myself
and
my
ex,
we
used
to
have
big
parties

every
Christmas,
busy
all
the
time,
out
every
night
or
enter-

taining
whenever
we
were
home.
We
hardly
had
any
time
to

ourselves.
But
this
is
quite
different.
No
one
around.
No
par-

ties,
no
guests
this
year
.
