40. You've been at a wedding where the footie results were read out
I've been at a wedding when the paper boy came round selling Green Finals, and another one when the meal was an hour late cos the chef, minister, groom etc were in the kitchen watching extra time of a Scottish Cup Final.

And love potted heid sandwiches.
I eence described how to make potted heid to an english quine . She threw up.
And the same quine back in 1978 helped me through the flu. ( I was biding yon time in a flat in London; she was a nurse quine and bade across the landing.)
Onywye when I stopped sweating and recovered I wis jist stervin; and made myself a cheese and blackcurrant sandwich.
The nurse quine was shocked and asked me why I was pittin' blackcurrant jam intae a cheese sandwich.
I just gave her the obvious logical reply: ' There isnae ony raspberry'!
