I saw this cancer patient who went to McDonalds so I can only conclude that McDonalds is so bad for you that some people with cancer also 'happen' to eat McDonalds.
I'm not saying McDonalds cause cancer, just that if you look at a cancer patient, and they're eating McDonalds, they deffo have cancer, and are eating McDonalds. Look, I'm not linking the two together, there are lots of people without cancer who also eat McDonalds, but you have to admit it's quite bad for you.

What I mean is, at 27 she'll have probably had plenty of experience,
and if she's 27 and still single, she will get a bit fed up with it now and again.

Sometimes it takes a while for the self-loathing to kick in.
I don't mean because she slept with Barry. I mean because she got pissed and slept with someone. Sometimes people sober up all day on the Sunday and then despise themselves for it, then never want to see the other person again.
But this might not be the case and she might be desperate to see him again, and he may as well. I'm just saying her behaviour that morning means nowt.
