Well, there I was at the kitchen window, washing up (as I have been known to do) while the vegetables were cooking (as I have also occasionally been known to do!), when this lady walks past the window on the pavement, in the direction of the town centre.
I did a double take!! I rushed to the front door, rushed outside and shouted "Brenda, Brenda".... This lady turned round and I rushed up and hugged her and asked her if she was looking for our house and why hadn't she let me know she was coming!!
The aforementioned lady looks at me as though I am bonkers.... no comments, please. I step back (from the hug!) and see, lawks a lordy, it isn't Brenda but an absolute Doppelganger!!!!
Not sure who was more embarrassed; me probably! She was SO like Mrs M that it was quite unnerving!! We exchanged a few inane pleasantries, as you do when you've lavishly hugged the wrong person. And I returned to the kitchen.
To find the vegetables had boiled over, I'd left the tap on and that had filled the sink! Luckily not overflowing!!
Note to self: Either: Don't look out of the kitchen window, OR don't go in the kitchen. No contest!!!
