Another Talk to Another Women's Institute! I hope your own throwback Thursday is going swimmingly. Very much looking forward to talking about My Tutu Went AWOL to the Hollesley WI tonight. The Royal Marine, Stacks, central to the book, involved with counter-piracy just now, says the WI talks are a boon for me: because I don't feel the need to hide, lie or up-cycle. 'There you are, chick, being just you and happy in your niche. I know sometimes you wish you were David Beckham in a tutu. But you're a variety throwback. For Thursday or any other day. With your pipes; your tiddle-iddle thud in six dozen sewn-together doilies; your stories about yodeling, your mother being possessed by him that broke his gas fire, burlesque giraffes. Like when you faced all us bootnecks in Helmand. We've seen it all before - and more - likewise women of that certain age. We're onto any wool-pulling and you know it.' He just wants me to grow a pair and put back into my WI show tonight the bit of real opera that I sang when I first met him. 'But mainly, chick - remember, we all go along better in life in our specific niche. Be in yours.' I said I would try. 'Right - my niche just at the moment is to stop this Somalian pirate from going where he thinks he's off to. Text me later and tell me how much the WI loved me again through you.' #tbt #tbt❤️ #tbfreaky #throwbackthursday #life #lifequotes #lifequotestoliveby #lifehacks #wisdom #philosophy #womensinstitute #hollesley #suffolk #philosophymemes #niche #nichememes
