There's an interesting story I'd like to share with you my cherished reader. Several years ago I returned to the house I'd grown up in, in a quiet, conservative village not too far from Oxford. I'd moved back following the passing away of my parents. I worked in London and for a time I was seeing how commuting suited me.
As I recall it was a Thursday evening about seven. It had been a long week for me, twice the trains had let me down and the hour and a half round trip had turned into four hours. I'd just thrown together a cold dinner when my door bell rang. A little pissed at the disturbance I reluctantly answered it. As it was I was greeted by a rather attractive woman of fifty who I vaguely recognise from village events. She introduced herself as Veronica, a name I always find extremely exciting, she began her patter as soon as she had introduced herself. I was only half listened as she spoke, far more interested in the way her body moved as she tried to engage my interest in what turned out to be a charity for missionary work in the middle east.
Now I don't know about you, but when I hear the words charity or missionary I switch off. But usually the speaker isn't as attractive and I have to say enthusiastic as Veronica was.
Her spiel lasted about five minutes by which time I'd decided to have a little fun with my new friend. If she was as dedicated to the cause as she made out, I was sure she wouldn't mind accommodating me a little; in the interests of the missionaries you understand.
So I invited her through to my lounge where I asked her to tell me more of the good cause. Veronica at once began to enthuse about all the good work these interfering busy bodies claimed to have achieved. What I was interested in was the way her full breasts moved as she gesticulated enthusiastically.
When good old Veronica paused for breath I jumped in with my offer. As she'd been talking I'd decided what I wanted. I wanted to see Veronica naked. I wasn't expecting her to strip for me there and then, no like a fine wine I expected the pleasure to take time in arriving.
Veronica was dressed in a skirt with a matching jacket. It was her jacket which would be the first item to be removed.
'Veronica,' I began 'I'd like to help but I'm really not a charity person. To tell you the truth I have a big problem with the idea of simply giving money away.'
Veronica's 'oh' and deep sigh touched me deeply (ha).
'Here's a thought though, if I was to get something for my money I think I could cope with making a donation.'
'Right. Well I don't have anything I can give you I'm sorry.' Poor Veronica informed me.
'That's torn it then.' I chipped in with. 'Nothing at all?' Veronica dumbly shakes her head as she struggles to think, I got the distinct impression it was a new experience for her.
'Alright then, how does this sound.' Here it comes, 'How about in return for a ten pound donation you remove your jacket and walk around the room. Then in a way I'm getting something for my money.'
Veronica looked at me in a confused way so I explained it again.
'Well Veronica, you're an attractive woman.' Which I have to say she was, with, I hoped a fine firm body beneath her loose clothes. 'What man wouldn't pay for the chance to watch you closely?'
It seemed that for what she was worth my new little friend knew how to except flattery. 'Well Peter if it means you'll donate to this extremely worth while cause I'll gladly oblige you.'
And so saying Veronica jumps to her feet and deftly removes her jacket while gazing into my eyes. Once it had been unceremoniously dropped onto the couch Veronica proceeded to self consciously walk up and down in front of me, I remained seated in my armchair. As she moved I studied her very closely indeed, next time would it be the blouse or the skirt which would be shed?
'Thank you Veronica.' I said after a few moments. ' that has brightened my evening no end.' And so saying I handed over the tenner and shoed little Veronica out of the door so that I could return to my dinner.
It was several weeks before I got the chance to see more of Veronica. This time it was a warm Saturday afternoon and I had just dropped into my armchair after mowing the lawns. The dispossesses of Bangladesh were the subject of today's needy cause. As good old Veronica twittered on I again watched her. Today she had on a dress with I was sure a full petticoat underneath. I need hardly say that the 'poor' unfortunates of Bangladesh rated very low on my people in need list. I mean when you choose to live on a river delta you can hardly complain when you get flooded every now and then!
But still would Veronica remove her dress for a tenner? No it would need fifteen or even twenty. Her monologue completed I moved in for the kill.
'Well Veronica, I'd like to help but I can hardly pay you to remove you jacket today can I?'
Veronica laughed at my joke but didn't come up with a alternative, I did notice her face grow redder as she looked at me though.
'You've a petticoat under your beautiful dress haven't you?' It was priceless watching the significance of what I had said register on her face. ' I'll happily give you fifteen pounds if you remove your dress and walk around, just as you did last time.'
It was lovely to see the inner turmoil on her face, on the one hand there was the needy and on the other there was the act of removing her dress for me to see her in her petticoat.
'I'll tell you what, how about if I make it twenty, I'm in a generous mood.' This swung her, as I'd hoped it would.
'Oh all right then, it is for a very good cause.' And so saying Veronica gets to her feet and with three quick movements removed her dress and began walking about in front of me. I couldn't help but wonder if maybe she was actually enjoying my appreciation of her. For my part I most definitely did appreciate her fine figure. Watching her slip the dress back on was nearly as enjoyable as seeing it removed, but there again I always have enjoyed watching women dress and undress. I think it's possible the only time you see their true nature. Their face takes on a look you seldom see. As if they need to concentrate totally on the job in hand.
