The pay-off to this tale of a woman having a chance encounter with a schoolmate 40 years later is devastatingly funny
Over on Twitter/X, MissR has posted a letter from a newspaper which has to be right up there with the best of them.
It’s a rather touching commentary on childhood crushes, the passing of time and the inevitable ageing process. It also has a devastatingly funny and brilliant final line.
Enjoy.
