45: Magnanimosity

In my last blog post I  talked of the injustice done to me by having to suffer for a ‘crime’ I committed (stealing a snowman’s nose carrot) when a human bean (named Susie Deuchars) was not even admonished for the same crime - and indeed acted as my role model.

Well, this is to set the record straight by informing you that, after all, Susie is an honourable bean.  She has apologised (profusely) for her role in the incident, and offered to provide cakes (and hopefully biscuits) for future social gatherings once this b****y pandemic is over.

(Sorry about the language. I don’t normally use profanity but human beans seem absolutely fed up with this lockdown - and I find it more rewarding to act in sympathy with them.  In fact, I have found the way that the residents of my street have reacted to the situation has been excellent. It has drawn them together creating a community out of a set of separate households.  But back to the main point of this post.)

Susie’s apology seemed sincere and she trod the delicate line of balancing contrition with  amusement.

All’s well that ends well (as William Shakespeare once said …. though not in his blog).

This is the end of this story.  I will make no further reference to Susie’s crime (unless, of course, she proves to b e a repeat offender).

Now, of course I have to promote (or provoke) similar incidents which might result in offers of future cake (and hopefully biscuits).

What can one do with an Easter bunny?
