And mine is here, too :-)
WQ161 - image above (pick a song for this man to be singing), a captive audience, a short window of opportunity
Dave held them captive in the local pub with his crazy rendition
of Billy Idol’s “In the Midnight Hour” on his accordion. I almost forgot
our plan as his mesmerizing antics on the lounge’s pool table while
wearing his beloved protective goggles made the audience ‘cry for more’.
Only the shove from a couple of girls coming back from the toilets
brought me back. There would be only a short window of opportunity and
there was no way I could miss it, otherwise all would be lost. I edged
to the bar and slid behind the backs of those sitting on the stools, all
of them cheering Dave on with drinks in their hands. Getting closer to
the landlord standing behind the counter and watching Dave while
cleaning a glass with his favourite towel, I tried to catch his eye. On
my fifth attempt, he noticed me and reluctantly put the glass down and
leaned over to hear me.
“What can I get yer, mate?” said the landlord.
“Two
pints of ale and a packet of pork scratchings, please!” I shouted above
the noise. I waved over to Dave and gave him the thumbs up. Finally, we
had been served!
