MUSHY PEAS

She said, ‘you want salad or peas with that?’
‘Peas thanks,’ I said.
‘Garden or mushy?’
‘Oh, mushy, defiinitely.’
‘I don’t blame you and these are particularly good these ones,’ she said.
‘Oh yeh?’
‘Yes, the best I’ve had for a long time.’
‘Are they?'
'Yes, I’m a big fan of mushy peas.’
'Me too,' I said. ‘I can't wait.’
She wrote down my order on a small pad was next to the till in front of her. I went and sat down at the table in the corner.
