Strange Affliction, washing over me...

Glad to be a live kind of day eh? 

We "bounced" out of bed quickly (sh) for a Saturday, bearing in mind I had a box to get to the PO for Toolibelle.  We tried the Post Office closest to us - but their "saturday mail" had already been taken....  So we headed in to town; where an interlouper skipped the queue and merrily headed to the counter before all of us locals, who were herded behind ropes. 

The Post Master shouted - "Did you just walk up that side", 

Interlouper; "Why yes, thank you".  

Post Master: "well that's the queue over there". 

Interlouper: "Oh I am not from here.. I did not know... "#sadface

At which point we all stood and went, "it's no problem, you carry on", and she did, and on, and on, and on.  The chap in front of me, and I exchanged looks as she discussed how travelling from Place A, where she came from was treacherous with snow.... (she only lived about 15 miles up the road  - so much for interlouper).  And then proceeded to ask about coffee shops, visitor attractions and the like, while we became bored and antsy. 

Eventually she left, blowing kisses to us and telling us how kind we were, as we snarled our "your welcomes". 

I bimbles up to the post office and he looks at the box and says, and I kid you not. "That's some bloody name".... at which point I said, see the "A, and the B?  That stands for Aurora Borealis".  

Put that in yer pipe and smoke it ya grumpy git.  

Eilidh-Ceit-Tooli-belle Aurora Borealis Cruse is the very, very best name in the whole world.
