COURSE

We're on course in Germany, little town of Blaubeuren, in the Schwabian Alps (not real Alps) just west of Ulm.  Pretty much everyone plans to use offduty time for shall we say howling, away from the husband.  Me, well no one to run around on, so I play tourist.  Visit a castle, hike in the Black Forest, do the different shopping, get wonderful photos of lovely old architecture, stuff you don't see on our side of the pond.
As we buckle up for the return flight, my neighbor asks what I did and I explain.
"Life is wasted on such as you, now listen to some good stories."
"Gotta headache, wanta sleep."
Doesn't work, she simply turns to her other  neighbor.  As I can't help but overhear, it dawns on me, hey they are actually competing with each other.  Imagine that.
