Just Between Us
“It had been her idea, although Kenny had taken it a step further and suggested making it a surprise and having it on Tom’s thirty-first birthday itself, which was a Thursday, instead of the day after.
‘He might have arranged something with his friends for that day,’ said Holly hesitantly when Joan and Kenny began brainstorming exactly how to inveigle Tom down to the pub, and then get him home in time for a surprise meal.
‘We’re his friends!’ Joan said, as if that was patently obvious. ‘Sure, he... spends all his time with us.’ This was true.
