When she gets up, her husband has gone to the golf course, she drinks
a cup of weak tea and has a toast without butter. Then the grooming
begins, it takes hours, hair, nails, the right dress to choose, takes time;
after all she is going to meet the other ladies and they are a critical lot.
She drives her white Mercedes and tries to park as close as possible
near the café, when she enters, there are kisses, big smiles and furtive
looks how the other ladies are dressed, colour combination and so on.
They all have long decorated nails, this indicates they have a maid to
do the dishes; they chat about film stars and others in the news and
how they dress. The ladies eat cream cakes and forget for a moment
about dieting. This séance last about two hours and is the highlight of
ladies day. She drives home, changes her frock, makes a meal for her
hubby, just home and suntanned from his golfing, and tells him to take
a shower since they are going to an art exhibition at eight.
