Best Man Toasts: A Chat in the Pub, part2

OK, back again, You wouldn't believe how long I had to wait to get served!

Mind you, it was worth it, did you see those three women in the corner? I'm positive one of them fancied me LOL

Where were we? Oh yes, John and his questions about Best Man Toasts.

"What makes you ask about Best Man Toasts any way John?" I asked

"Well, an old friend of mine from school, called me up the other day and asked me to be the best Man at his wedding later this year"

"How much notice has he given you?" I asked Graham

"It's this Saturday" says John

"WHAT????, I thought you said it was later in the year? You do know that today is Tuesday don't you?" I almost yelled at him

"Well, it was, when he asked me back in february!" says he, looking a bit sheepish

Everyone just cracked up and it was a good 10 minutes before we could continue on.

It didn't help that Graham laughed so hard that Beer came out his nose and flooded the bowl of free peanuts, so we had to get them replaced. (it was one of the only pubs round our way that still gave you free peanuts, that's why it was one of our favorites)

Anyway once everyone had settled back down to some sort of normality, well everyone except Barry, we made allowances for him, what with him having just been discharged after 5 years of duty on active service.

Hey, who are we to criticize a guy who thought that he had joined the SAS only to realize, too late, that it was the Salvation Army!

He thought that the sign outside the Hall had been vandalized and someone had crossed off the extra 'S' as a joke.

"OK" I said, getting back on track again. "How do you think I can help?"

"Actually, no wait, I'll tell you what I'll do John" I Had an idea!

"How about if I tell you what it was like my first time and maybe you can learn from my mistakes?". "What do you think of that?"

"That would be a massive help" said John " But you do mean your first time you gave a Best Man Toast right?, not the other first time, you know what I mean?"

I think my well practiced 'Don't mess with me' look told him the answer to that one, cheeky sod!

"OK" I said, "Well, how about you get the next round in and we'll start when you get back".

If you can't wait till he gets back then why not visit the Link below, Have a look and see if it could help you as much as it helped me.

Oh, and don't forget to leave a comment or better still, tell me about your Best Man Toast. How was it for you? :-)
