Just buy one of those posh meal deals and get rid of the packaging

Whatever you do don’t give him your ‘famous’ risotto
Pip
It was a bad batch of prawns!
Pip
NOT my cooking
Jo
Took me a full week to recover
Heather
Is he meeting Lucy?
Pip
Yes
Pip
But I may have bribed her to go out with her friends once she’s said hello...
Jo
I’m sure she won’t have needed too much convincing. First date at your house. She knows EXACTLY what you’ll be getting up to.
Jo
You probably won’t see her for days!
Pip
And what EXACTLY are you suggesting is going to happen?
Jo
Pip

‘get through each day’
