Friday. Night. Usually spent at the Sassville Pub with Stace, but last night we decided to venture into the Big Smoke, and hit one of the pubs in there.
We had a lovely meal at one pub, met up with one of Stace and the Boyfriends mates, and the four of us drove up to the pub. Stace was driving, so we could get home to Sassville, and because she needed to work the next morning. I was a bit concerned about going out with the Boyfriend, he seemed a bit straightlaced to me the first time we met, but I figured we'd soon see.
And see we did. He's a bloody champion. Danced all night, swung us girls around, I've never laughed so hard. It was awesome. And his mates were all the same. Big group of boys, all shaking their groove things all over the dance floor. I love a man who dances.
So we were at the pub, laughing dancing and generally having an awesome time, and this guy came up to me and started chatting. He was lovely. Country guy - from the chambray shirt with the upturned collar to the cowboy boots. And Hot. Hellooooo farmboy.
We were chatting away for an hour or more, and he says to me - JtH, I think you are going to love this...
"May I ask you a question?"
"Sure"
"Would it be alright if I asked you out to dinner?"
"You can ask me that if you want to."
"Could I take you out to dinner one night this week?"
Pause
"That would be lovely."
*** I got asked on a fair dinkum date!!!! ***
Interesting things I know about Farmboy so far...
He's 27. His birthday is the day after Nicky's.
His last girlfriend died in a car crash.
He grew up on a farm just an hour out of Sassville, in the mountains, which his family had to sell when his dad died.
He dances, and is HHHOOOTTT.
He doesn't smoke.
He used to ride in Rodeo's.
He's a snowboard instructor, and loves to waterski, kneeboard and wakeboard.
He's almost completely deaf, and wears hearing aids.
He got 75 for his TER - I'm so mortified that he whipped my arse there.
Maths is his pet subject.
He's a boilermaker / welder by trade, and occasionally works in Sassville.
He's going to ring me on Wednesday - I explained that I had Nicky until Tuesday evening, and he said that she could come out with us too, but I don't like to have Nicky around people she doesn't know. He was cool with that, lovely about it actually. He asked me what her name was, how old, all that. He really is a lovely guy.
All in all, an awesome night.
