That's why I brought a shawl

It was my cousin's wedding at the weekend so, in honour of the occasion, I bought a frock. As I waited in the hotel corridor for my mother to finish dithering about in her room, I was approached by an old lady. "Oh!" she said as she passed, "You look very beautiful!". Feeling, as I did, a little awkward in my blowsy dress, I was greatly cheered by this comment. Rather more bouyed, I made my way down to the lobby and went to join my grandmother. Her remark on the dress? "You'll freeze".
