It is a friendly place with great food and a great soul. We stay overnight and are left to help ourselves to drink from the bar, in the understanding that we make note of our consumption. It really has become an annual event and one we look forward to immensely.
So as said we were having a wonderful day.
Now one point of note, which is relevant to the story, is the layout of the restaurant. It's really a mountain chalet and with wooden tables made out of solid wood. Central to the room is a stove with tiles which is the heart and heat of the room. And next to this is a fabulous square table which sits easily 10. We always sit here and enjoy the dynamics the table offers.
This particular evening this table had been taken over by two young men, seeming locals. Nice enough as they seemed, they were on OUR table, I mean the cheek of it. My friends and I were commenting on the fact that we needed to find a strategy to oust them out of OUR space. We decided after our fun ideas, just to let them be.
Thank goodness we did. We ended up being very thankful to them.
As over the next hour, the youngest amongst us managed to cut open her chin on the bathroom floor. We were quickly deciding on our options. The obvious one being driving to a hospital going to A&E and waiting for the usual time, which could be hours.
On hearing this, the two boys at the table, quickly heard their call to action and called their friend the local Doctor, who agreed to open his Doctors practice, late on Saturday night, to help out this little girl. Wow. How wonderful!
They were so kind and most of all helpful, that we felt a kind of remorse for all our wicked ideas to get rid of them earlier.
Karma my friend said.
So as my friends head on down the snowy path to the local Doctor, I thank the universe for the karma that itsent us!
Good luck little family ;-)
And by the way they are still sitting there! But we will let them.
I'm raising my glass to karma. I am also a firm believer. Happy vibes all around.
