The Night At the Party

I was playing 'hide and seek' with the youngsters, For they needed much to do... There was Jasmine, Amerish, Harry, Noah And couple of others too. Amerish couldn't find Jasmine. She said, "She was hiding behind that door!" So I opened the entrance to the ladies loos And let out a mighty "ROAR!" As you may have guessed, Jasmine wasn't there! But a lady was fixing her makeup And fluffing out her hair! I was all apologetic, Tried to explain myself, but then She politely stated, "I need to go again!" I returned to the main hall And Jasmine was always there! Right at the end of the table, Behind the tallest chair... The next time I see that lady, Our conversation may well begin, "Do you remember the night at the party When you jumped out your skin?" Written in 2018 - YOUR PERSONAL FAVOURITE CONTEST

Thank you Tom... Yes it was very funny. I'm still trying to work out wether or not the little girl was playing a trick on me and if so it went much better for her than expected .. lol... But the poor woman by the mirror got quite a surprise too! Embarrassing though it was it's one of my favourite memories :)
