Early after the post-platonic conversion.

I vaguely remember it was late in the year, I think December, and the version of the story of Ronnie asking Sally out on the 1st official date goes something like this. Sally and Ronnie were having lunch just prior to Sally meeting a client for a site inspection—at HOME nightclub, and they were eating at HOME kitchen. The hour is almost over and, as Ronnie finally plucked up the courage and was about to ask Sally "out", her two clients arrived and Sally introduced Ronnie and then had to disappear before he spoke. I think they spoke later that afternoon, met the same night for a drink, and then, without any further dramas, their love story began. I also remember, in their early dating days, Ronnie often delivered specially designed "care parcels" to Sally, including a fantastic hangover cure package, which contained, among many things, a miniature of vodka, chocolate, etc. Didn't Ronnie also give her a Barbie screen saver as part of her 1st Christmas "couple" gift”?
