The Reunion

THE REUNION Old school friends Jan, Sue and Mary rediscover each other via a reunion website and arrange to meet for lunch. Jan arrives first, immaculate in a beige Versace-style dress, and orders a bottle of Pinot Grigio. Sue, wearing a grey Chanel number, enters and, after the initial hugs and kisses, joins her in a glass of wine. In due course, Mary walks in, wearing a faded old tee-shirt, blue jeans and boots. They pour her a wine and get down to discussing their lives. Jan explains: "I went from school to Oxford University . That's where I met Timothy. You'd love him. He's a partner in one of London 's leading law firms. We live in a 4,000 sq ft apartment on Park Lane -- our daughter Susanna attends drama school there -- and have a second home in Portugal ." Sue, in turn, says: "I got my degree at Cambridge , studied medicine and became a surgeon. My husband Clive is a top investment banker in the City. We live in Virginia Water and have a bolthole in Italy for those times when we need to get away from it all." They look at Mary inquiringly. She begins: "Well, after I left school at 17, I ran off with my boyfriend. Mark and I run a tropical bird park in Essex and grow our own vegetables. Mark can..." she hesitates. "Mark can stand five parrots side by side on his erect pen-!s." Her friends gaze at her with a new interest. Four hours later, halfway through the third bottle of wine, Jan says: "Oh, hell -- I can't live with myself in front of you two. My husband's actually a cashier at Tesco. We live in a small apartment in Bromley; there's a caravan parked on the front drive which we use for holidays." Sue, chastened but encouraged by such honesty, says: "Clive and I are both nursing care assistants in an old people's home. We live in Peckham and take camping holidays in Kent ." As they fix their eyes on Mary, she shrugs and says: "Well, the fifth parrot has to stand on one leg..." |
