Lots to do today after breakfast. First I'll take a look at the County Historical Museum in Pleasantville. I wonder if there will be any interesting clothing items ? There usual is and what goes around...inevitably comes around. Think I'll have to take a change of clothes with me for that lunch date with Brad, the buyer I'm dealing with. Boy, is he cute or is he cute! Musn't forget my Jimmy Choo's beautiful yellow wedge heel shoes. They cost me only $395. Oh shucks, there's not much room in this case, still I can always pop over to Kyle's place and change there if I must. He won't mind.....there all packed for the day.
I'll just pick up my car rental keys at the desk and then it's off to the museum.
Monday 10am...the place Is Pleasantville's County Historical Museum...

| Whoops! Did I stand on your toes ? |
Inspecting her feet Goldie screwed her face up a little. "No damage done. Hmm, McCormack did you say ? Any relation to Kyle McCormack ?"
"Oh, you've met him ?" Laughing softly I continued, "Um, yes and unfortunately he's my...brother."
And at that they both giggled, and shook hands as Goldie introduced herself.
" I'm Goldie Horne, I gave your brother some riding lessons when he first came to that little riding establishment. He seems to be making ago of it. What brings you here to little old Pleasantville If you don't mind me asking ?"

| Fascinating museum...such history. |
"Clinching a business deal I hope. I'm a stock buyer of all kinds of fabrics and patterns. I um, work for 'Kali Fashions', have you heard of it ?"
"Sorry no, I don't go round in those circles I'm afraid. I give horse back riding lessons to anyone who needs them and other horsey related things. That's how come I met your brother. I gave him a few refresher lessons."
"Right. Hey this place is fascinating, but I have plans to visit the gym later on. Must get rid of a few calories and work up an appetite. I have a lunch date and I have my figure to think about."
Goldie payed me a compliment about me not needing to loose weight and offered to accompany me to the gym.
Monday noon...the place Is the Gym...still in Pleasantville...
I'll have to pop to Kyles place for a shower and a change before I go to my lunch date Goldie I've just texted him as he's not picking up. Probably busy somewhere"
"No need, Pleasantville may be small but it's not a backward town. We have shower cubicles, changing rooms and a cafe area with good seating even the odd sofa dotted around. We could get a coffee before you go, if you like ?"
"Great. Meet you in, say about 40 minutes." I payed the attendant and went to the changing rooms. Goldie went off into the cafe area.

| Gee-whiz, I'm not that unfit surely. |
Wow! don't they ever oil these things ? It sure is...strenuous. I think I've had enough. Time for a shower and change into that little number that matched my Jimmy Choo's. I don't think it's too short. I'll try and ring Kyle to tell him I won't be over to day after all...Shucks, gone straight to voice mail. 'Hey, brother dear, if you get this message I won't be over to day and...and you'll have payed just to hear this message so there!" Now to find Goldie for a coffee.
Still Monday 12:55pm...the place Is...the Cafe inside the Gym...
So now after ordering a Cappuccino..."Ooo! needed that. Just the right amount of milk to foam."
"Yes, I reckon they make the best Cappuccino here. Thats a nice dress you have on Dionne, and those shoes...are they...Jimmy Choo's ?"

| The gym cafe...Hope my dress is not too short. |
"Yes, I thought you didn't go 'round' in those circles." I smiled.
"I still know what they look like. I'm guardian to my best friends daughter and she has a lot of expensive shoes. Her parents are both dead...bad road traffic accident...poor kid, but that was a long time ago. Unfortunately I think she's heading for a disaster in the 'man thing', he's much too old for her and entirely unsuitable..." Goldie colored up as she realized who Kate's boy friend was. "Umm, do forgive me, it's just dawned on me...I-I have to be somewhere....I-I forgot all about it. Well it's been...nice talking to you."
"Okay, um, well thanks for the company and not to worry I have to get to my lunch date soon. Nice talking to you Goldie."
So I wonder what that was all about ? Lets see, I have still time too check out the Library before lunch with Brad. Just between you and me nothing can come of any relationship with him as I've since found out he's married ! I'll teach him a thing or two, I'll just order the dearest of everything on the menu, should be a giggle.
