Ladies who lunch

[snooper]

My wife and I had lunch today in our fevourite up-market Italian restaurant. We cannot afford to go there too often, because today's bill was the equivalent of the royalties on 100 copies of my books (before taxes). In the restaurant there was a party of about 20 or so ladies having a celebratory Xmas lunch, none of whom were under 60 years old. My wife and I fell to speculating as to the affinity which brought them there. One suggestion, at which we both giggled, was the annual Xmas lunch of the Localville Retired Hookers' Association.

It might make an excellent story if someone wrote about the reminiscences being told at the table during this meal.

Maybe they were red hats? That's a nationwide senior women's social group.

Unfortunately for your excellent theory, we were not in your nation, and Red Hats does not exist (outside the US ex-pat community) in the UK.

I like your idea Snoops. Another version might be ex dorm mates from school days, who get together once a year to eat each other after lunch?

"Why, I can remember when Mayor Snodgrass was just a councilman. He was a regular, you know. He used to think he was all that. But the truth is, he was only about four inches."

Interesting idea Snooper.

This would be a neat-o idea for one of the chain stories. Someone could write a brief intro story (sexuality optional since it's just setting the scene, but they could tell one of the stories in the first intro, too.) and then the rest of us could write as one of the sex workers. I'm not a very good writer, but I'd give it a shot, if some peeps wanted to do this with me. I'd prefer if someone more experienced did the first intro. I'm not really good at starting stories, you see. I'm afraid if I started it, I'd botch it badly enough that it'd be hard for other writers to follow me.
