Elderly Neighbour

Chloe leaned across the table to give Mary her shopping and change.

“Good Heaven. You're not wearing a bra.”

“Dude. Chill. It's just a boob.”

“Just a boob to you, young lady, but to the entirety of Christianhood it's a temptation of the devil.”

“Why?” Chloe frowned. “I've seen pictures of you with your boobs out.”

“Only to nourish the young messiah. Nourishment is always acceptable.”

“Except in one pub in Hull, where they banned someone for breastfeeding because it distracted the punters from the strippers.”

“That's disgusting.” The Mother of God pulled a cigarette from the packer. “And less of the 'dude,' if you please.”

Thanks. I'm replacing the old man in her story with a cantankerous Virgin
