Crown Prince

The two most common lines I hear at work are :

1. You don't look well.

2. I know you're really busy but...

It's a bloody tough job (and its starting to wear me down).

The Gardener (older, sexy) recognised my plight today. He didn't use either of these lines. He said 'close your eyes, hold your hands out, I have a present for you'.

A green pumpkin from his allotment.

I cuddled it all the way home on the tube.

Doesn't take much to please me.

That was quite a moment. I can understand the cuddle...
If you wish to turn it so, it could be read as shades of Lady Chatterley (I've jumped in before C.J!)
PS: I have given up hanging around allotments, sadly...

I love cuddling pumpkins (but then again what did you expect from me!)
