The mists cleared and I found myself in the middle of another painful memory. Hospitals are, to my mind, one of the least hospitable environments, an... in this I speak from a long and painful experience. A nurse came in and checked my temperature and pulse. ‘The doctor will be here in a moment.’ She said as she recorded my vital signs on my chart. ‘You’ve been off with the fairies for some time.’ ‘How long have I been here?’ ‘Two days. Do you remember anything of what happened?’ ‘No.’ Even as I. Stella and Audrey were in the two chairs while Paula and I sat on the bench seat. One of the marketing guys who knew Paula went around to sit next to her and chat about legal stuff, since she was from our Contracts Department. And only then did I realize that a devastatingly handsome man was about to sit right by my side."Hello again. E-Beth, right?" Grant said in that smoky voice from about ten inches away.I winced inside. I should never have told him my nickname. Keeping things more formal. On the back of the High Street was a very small and very dated public ‘swimming baths’, and next to this old building was a set of similarly aged public toilets.The location was super. The swimming baths car park was often used by people letting their wives nip to the shops, whilst the male would sit in the car, reading a paper or such like until their wife’s return. Anyone wanting to use the toilets could just park up in the swimming park car park, and even watch from the safety of their cars. Bob checked the time and wondered whether another team would arrive this late in the session. Still in his gear, he went into the next room to observe for a bit.Matt was dividing his time between his judo students, who were practicing their technique at safe falling, and Kevin and the team on the pugil sticks. Kevin wore the same complete set of protective gear as Bob's and was casually holding a pugil stick. Matt wore only his judo uniform. Kevin concurred with Bob's remark that the late hour.
