GIVING UP WINE A woman walking down a street was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby looking homeless woman who asked her for a couple of quid for dinner. She took out her purse, got out £10 and asked, If I give you this money, will you buy wine with it instead of dinner? No, I had to stop drinking years ago, the homeless woman told her. Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying food? she asked. No, I dont waste time shopping, the homeless woman said. I must spend my time trying to stay alive. Will you spend this on a beauty salon instead of food? she asked. Are you NUTS! replied the homeless woman. I havent had my hair done in 20 years! Well, I said, Im not going to give you the money. Instead, Im going to take you out to dinner with my husband and me tonight. The homeless woman was shocked and asked the other woman, Wont your husband be furious with you for that. Im filthy dirty, and I probably smell pretty much like a badgers ring piece. The other woman said, Oh thats okay. Its very important that he should have the chance to see what happens and what a woman looks like after she gives up shopping, hair appointments, and wine.
