‘It’s a long way from London.’
He looked pensive for a moment. ‘That’s not necessarily a bad thing.’
‘There are ruts.’
‘Not when I’m around,’ he said firmly, then smiled. ‘Come on, I promised you some lunch.’
‘Are you sure? Oh, wait, this is going on expenses, right?’
He got up. ‘Absolutely not. Not if I can’t use the story.’
‘Good heavens. Morals!’
He put on an offended look. Then, ‘Seafood do you? The Crown & Anchor owes me a favour.’
Penny grinned. Moving on might not be so painful after all.
Next in the Penny Plain Mysteries
Just Desserts
A pub with an odd menu, a missing 1950s test plane, the Salthaven WI Village Show, unlikely development on the Enterprise Park and Penny’s eldest daughter behaving out of character. It can only be a Penny Plain Mystery.
