Motels and Diners


We are having the full on motel and diner experience on this trip north with Sue and Paul. Staying at the moment in the Super 8 motel and last night we walked over to the nearby Diner, all silver metal and curved glass. Waitress Norma (she wrote it on a hat and plonked it down in the centre of the table) must have been all of 4 foot 6 inches but with a voice that could cut through any diner hubbub. Strong accent as well so that when Tess (having ordered something called 'Steak Tips') was asked 'howda like yer tits cooked?' poor Norma had to stand by whilst the four of us collapsed in giggles. Weather grey and overcast, we had rain last night for the first time since our arrival on the 6th which seems a long time ago.
