Wembley Concert

While I was welcoming visitors into the art gallery I was working at, a couple entered the gallery. As the  man had a suitcase, I told him he could leave his suitcase in the cloakroom.

A few hours later, I saw the couple leaving. After asking them for their feedback, I asked the man why he was carrying a suitcase. He said he and his wife were on their way to Wembley to watch a concert of this singer I'd never heard of. The man said he hadn't heard of him either, but his wife was obviously a fan. He said they were staying overnight at a hotel.

I told the man the last time I attended a concert at Wembley was to see Madonna. The man said he also saw her at Wembley. When he told me who was supporting the pop star, I realised it was the same concert I had been to way back in the 1990s.  I told him we waited for hours for the concert to start. He said he also had a long wait. We realised we could have attended on the same day.

We were both amazed.

Thank you, God, for that wonderful connection. ❤️

Second of November

While my colleague and I were letting the audience into the auditorium, this man said to me,, "Is it the second or the third today?" "It's the second of November today," I said. "I meant is it the second or third concerto?" he said.  I burst out laughing. His wife told him to check the programme. Before they went in, he told me my response could be used in a comedy sketch. That's what you get when you ask a literalist, like me, a question. 😄

Bananas

 A few days ago while I was grocery shopping, I wondered if I should get some bananas, but I decided not to as they don't last long. That's why I only buy a banana when I fancy one in that moment.  I got red grapes instead which last a lot longer. Yesterday, I didn't see my flatmate as I was already in bed by the time she got home. This morning when I went in the kitchen, I noticed my flatmate had left a note on the kitchen top for me to have these two bananas. I immediately gobbled one up. Thank you, God, for providing my bananas through my flatmate. ♥️ Photo of the note and bananas 😊

Indiana Jones

Image
Today, I was working as a host at three graduation ceremonies from the same university. At the end of each ceremony, the orchestra they had on stage played the theme song from the film, "Indiana Jones", composed by John Williams. By the end of my shift, I had that song stuck in my head. On the way home, I stopped at this restaurant to get some food then walked to the bus stop  As the bus I wanted got cancelled, I decided to travel a different route, which took a lot longer.  When I finally got home, I had a quick shower. I then turned on my laptop to watch some mindless TV on this film channel. Guess what film they had on? "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull." Very funny, God! 😂 Of course, I had to watch it again, even though I've seen it a zillion times. I never get tired of Indiana Jones films or that theme song. ❤️
