Meeting Neil's sister

Neil has a sister he really gets on well with, and as it so happens, she was going to be in the area for a few days. Obviously they met up. And he hadn't yet told her about me. But when they met in person, he did tell her, and she immediately became keen on  meeting me. And so it happens that two days later, I went to his place to meet her and her husband, after which we would all go to a nearby pub for a meal.

Neil had warned me that while he talks a lot, the only person in the world who talks even more is his sister. It is a bit of a word tornado to meet them both at the same time! But she is lovely. And the sister's husband even sometimes gets a word in edgeways. He is lovely too.

We had a great time! I was really pleased to meet her, and I had the impression it was reciprocal. I've been introduced to the family! Quite a big step…
