a little story about iris to finish the thread off- Early 70s the day i got engaged, decided to have a quiet meal to celebrate, so we went into the Chinese Restaraunt that used to be on Church St, around 7-00 cos we knew it would be virtually empty at that time, 2 people were in= Iris n Roy (her fella at that time) we made for the far end, Iris shouts,come n join us cock dont be sat on yer own, so knowing her we did,the waiter comes,we order, 2 mins later a voice bellows what the f*** do you call this you slant eyed get, there were 2 options- crawl under the table or laugh,we chose the latter, as you can imagine the waiters/manager were not best pleased, the performance continued all through the meal, i ended up with hiccups through laughing, unexpected but turned out a hilarious night, if i bump into her when shes out n about again, i reckon i owe her a drink for that.
