DISCALIMER NOT MINE! In answer to Jen's Write a reunion fic set in 2023 challenge. This is silly but it's fun (top marks if you guessed where that phrase is from! ;) I hope it is anyway! Do enjoy and as usual any review would be most kind! :)
"Esther! Look at this; they are bringing back 'This is your life!" An elderly but by no means grown up Brian Lane called through a mouthful of cornflakes.
"Really? You know I used to love that show. I always thought it was an interesting way to listen to all sorts of people's life stories. Do we know who is going to be on it this time around?" His wife asked folding up laundry, even since they 'retired' as private investigators two years ago work never ceased for Mrs Lane.
"It doesn't say, the BBC are giving you the chance to apply for tickets to see it being filmed" he said pointing to the page with the end of his spoon.
"Excellent, well you better get applying, oh by the way you haven't forgotten James is coming home from school for the weekend… again he's just sent me a text reminding me."
"Honestly you spend all this money so the boy can have a decent private education at the best boarding school this side of London and all he wants to do is come home every other weekend. I don't know kids today."
I don't mind it keeps me young, will you pick him up seen as you have finally passed your driving test?"
"I hate driving and you know that, can't you pick him up he is your grandson."
"And he's yours too" she reminded him.
"Yes well when Mark dumped him on us he made it very clear who it was he wanted to look after him."
"Brian, James is ten years old we can't take out his parent's incompetence out on him can we? Come on I need you to change his sheets."
