“Quite right and proper.” replied Bette, “Look I don’t know about you but I am famished do you fancy an early supper? Only I know this nice little Sardinian restaurant, that this early in the evening will be quiet and we can eat and discuss whatever it is that’s on your mind”
“Um, I suppose so.” said Tina hesitantly.
“Oh, sorry, look if you have other plans that’s ok it’s just that I thought once we started talking shop we might not stop.”
“No, I don’t have any other plans it’s just as a junior the work isn’t always that regular and I like to keep to a fairly tight budget.”
“Good Lord Tina I don’t expect you to pay! Just see it as me paying my forfeit for today’s wager. Anyway it will be much cheaper than the Ivy and no stuffed shirts to boot! OK?”
“Yeah if you’re sure”
Bette told the cab driver their intended destination, which they arrived at fifteen minutes later.
As they entered Sardo’s, Aberto approached Bette and welcomed her.
“La mia ragazza graziosa, Signorina Bette, it’s been too long!” He gave her the Sardinian customary welcome of three pecks on the cheeks. “Do you want to sit at the bar or are you working?” He said whilst giving Tina that appraising look that Latin men do so well. It should be noted that Aberto was only two weeks away from his 82nd birthday.
“Alas, we are working Aberto, so a quiet space would be good”
Aberto took the ladies one on each arm and escorted them to a secluded table at the rear of the restaurant. Bette and Tina looked at each other and Bette gave Tina a wink, a shrug and her million dollar smile which set Tina off smiling as well. They were finding it hard to keep their chuckles in by the time they were seated as Aberto was rambling on at how exhausting it was to have not one but two beautiful woman in the restaurant and that neither of them were Sardinian.
Once they were seated Aberto excused himself and said he would send over his son, Maco.
Maco arrived just as his father was leaving, “Elisabeta, where have you been? “Whilst giving her the traditional three hit greeting kiss. Before she could answer the question he was looking at Tina. “Well?” he asked.

absolutely delightful! love the ‘English’ english:)
lovin it!!!!!!!!especially being a northern girl myself!!!!!
God..can’t wait for you to take us to the English Countryside.
Very nice, I am looking forward to see how the weekend in Essex goes, daddy will definitely not like that Bette has brought someone home for the weekend. I am looking forward to your next post.
absolutely beautiful, love the language and the story…can’t wait for more
I am absolutely amazed at the level of creativity of you folks here on fanfiction. I love this story—Tina and Bette as barristers ;-) Hope they have some bouts in court—other ones, I mean. I, too, cannot wait for the trip to Essex.
So Bette’s an “Essex girl”?!! It’s so good to have another home country story – very enjoyable and looking forward to your updates.
I like this, looking forward to reading more.Thank you.
Thank you for your author’s note! I have to admit though, that I had to ask my wonderful guide, what exactly the “Bullring” is. Would have enjoyed seeing the marketplace in action!I will be going to the convention, and after that will be spending about a month visiting…and although I know Tracey (tbsaver) is going to show me as much of your beautiful and historic country as she can, I will be exploring on my own some of the time while she is at work. Really enjoying the story…the different use of the language…”Mumsie’s!!” Looking forward to the next chapter!! Thanks!!
Well Seahurst told me that I needed to read this story and I am so glad she did. I love to see B and T in different environments, and lets face it you don’t see them in England that often!!!!….Fantastic start, I love it!
LOOOOOOOOve it, Keep it coming and soon.
I have a feeling Melvin won’t like Tina even though T & B aren’t a couple yet.
Let’s hope in this story, Melvin is completely smitten by one Ms. Tina Kennard. I would be nice to have one story where there are no obsticles for them to hurdle. Nice story… Kudo’s to our sister on the other side of the Atlantic.
