Courting days
[Monday, 17th May, 1960] Emma has been getting pestered at work by some creep who wants her to go out with him - little notes on her desk telling her how beautiful she is and how much he loves her. The crunch came on Friday, when he bought two tickets for him and Emma to go to see Ben Hur at the Majestic. The other girls in the office thinks she’s cruel for not giving him a chance, especially as he bought a new suit for the occasion. Bitches! I offered to go and flatten the creep, but Emma says she doesn’t want me to get into trouble, even though I said I could get someone else to do it - our Lenny for example. I think she feels sorry for him. The only other solution is for Emma to have a word with her line-manager and ask him to warn him off, which Emma has promised to do. In the meantime, I can’t do anything because Emma won’t even tell me the cheeky runt’s name. Accept that life’s not fair, you bastard. She’s mine!
