Vignettes #55
While discussing Samuel Beckett's play Come and Go Ursula told me the following story she had once experienced: Ursula was with her friend Uschi at one of our local coffeehouses having a coffee and a chat. As in Beckett's play there were 3 elderly ladies at a table nearby and it was impossible not to overhear their gossip. Most obviously they were talking quite nasty about another person not present at their table. After a while one of the ladies left the group, and Uschi told Ursula to wait a few seconds and listen. Sure enough the two remaining ladies started slagging about their friend who had just left the table.
