The Big Guy

Dear O'H dear and Lovely Tea Jenny,

We had a zoom night with Basher, Lovely Shuvly and some of Basher’s Canadian family, including his Auntie J, Uncle G and their daughter, cousin H.

H mentioned during the call that “the big guy” had made his way to someone who has recently had cancer treatment. “When he arrived, he was dressed up with a face mask.”

Shuvly: You might have to explain “the big guy” to The Prince and Princess.

Cousin H: Well, there’s really no other way to explain it than...it’s a big rubber d1ck.

Uncle G: With balls.

Turns out that forty odd years ago, Uncle G bought “the big guy” to take along to a stag do, and since then, “his” guest appearances have become a family tradition.

Like the time that “the big guy” was in the middle of a bouquet of flowers Auntie J received for her birthday. At work.

Or the time he was unwrapped at the wedding present opening party held by an unsuspecting cousin!

There were so many other stories (presented in a wine cooler to J, H’s brother, in a restaurant on his 30th birthday and popping up in several places during a visit to Scotland).

We were crying with laughter. Auntie J and Uncle G are very chilled. H told us that she’d called them for a chat during lockdown. She could hardly hear because there was so much noise in the background and just matter of factly, Uncle G said “Yeah we’re doing the time warp.”

That’s life goals right there!
