WW2 Themed Café

Wilson was still a bit unsettled by his odyssey through the dark tunnels when we sat down with our Lattes and Carrot Cake in the wartime-themed café. 

He took his coffee back over to the counter and asked if he could have some ant sprinkles on it, and without missing a beat the assistant replied, 'I'm sorry, ant sprinkles are still on ration — don'tcha know there's a war on?'


He had just started to relax when an email arrived, and this time it was MY turn to be upset. 


Wilson consulted his iPhone and read the message aloud to me: 'It's from The Bees, New Dad — they say that the wasps have gone, though now there's a big hole in the ceiling. But not to worry, everything is alright. Apart from the hole, obviously.'


Turning his phone off, he gave me what I can only imagine was meant to be a reassuring smile.


We finished our coffees and set off to the Secret Rocket Testing Range.
