No Nonsense November.

Today’s date, the twentieth of November, issues forth with a sober and serious tone when said aloud, don’t you think? There’s certainly nothing twinkly about it, in fact if dates were occupations this one would be a bank manager sitting behind a desk in a stale room. He eyes his pocket watch from behind a tortoise shell pince-nez , failing to recognise that turning up two minutes late for an interview with him is not a sign of discourtesy, but an indication of heavy traffic made even more chaotic by a sudden and heavy dump of snow. No room for chaos or missed appointments on the twentieth of November.

Is it your bank manager you're talking about? I remember bank managers visiting the farm and throwing Mum into a tizz.

@judyev My bank manager is a teenage boy who has the temerity to first name me like I was his friend in the school playground. It’s his arrogant presumption and scruffy sort of a beard that send me into a tizz.

@xFiacre Our niece joined a bank and was promoted to manager after only six months! In fairness, she wasn't able to hand out loans.
