Eavesdropping

Nell: Look at David!

Me: How gorgeous. Darling Dave.

Nell: David is eavesdropping. Harriet told him to because he is tall enough to see through the window.

Me: Surely not. He is just looking in. Bless him.

Nell: Poppy, Mutley and I were having a Board Meeting in the living room and that naughty animal was listening in.

Me: What do you mean a Board Meeting?

Nell: You don’t think Corner Cottage just runs itself do you?

Me: I didn’t know we had a board.

Nell: Yes. Poppy, Mutley and I are the directors. And Kev too, of course.

Me: Kev? Why Kev? Hang on, I should be on the board.

Nell: Kev represents you.

Me: This is outrageous. I’m on Dave’s side. Secret meetings. It’s not fair.

Nell: Don’t be silly. You were quite happy until you found out.

Me: What were you discussing?

Nell: If you check on Companies House you can see further details.

Me: Do you have a company then?

Nell: Of course we do. We are the directors.

Me: I vote that Dave, Harriet and I become directors too.

Nell: You don’t have a vote but I will add it to the agenda.

Me: Thank you.

Nell: Can I get back to my meeting now, or we will never finish and I have to circulate the minutes by the end of today?

Me: Yes, sorry.
