My cautionary tale this time is about making sure you ask enough of the right questions, on this topic the grandparents were right, to assume genuinely does make an ass of you and me. Imagine a young man out with a group of his friends in a posh London club having a pretty good time, when up comes an attractive woman (she’s not a stunner, but then again this isn’t a fairy tale). They have a chat and a dance, enjoy each others company as you would expect and just as the boy is about to do a Cinderella and go home on the stroke of midnight with his friends, the young lady suggests that he can stay at hers… “This sounds like a good night for all involved, where is lesson to be learned?”, I hear you cry. The young man in question didn’t ask where the bed he had been offered was, and even upon being told Oxford, he naively assumed she meant Oxford Street, or Oxford Circus, not the acclaimed university city. She did not mean a hip part of London, she meant a city 62 miles away, which surprisingly has a 24 hour bus service between London Victoria Coach Station. So, be careful, before you make a decision get all the facts, or you could be left with a choice between staying in the a city you don’t know with a woman you don’t know, or wandering round a city you don’t know on your jack.
Finally I once again treat you to two videos courtesy of the youtubings:
