todayiamadaisyGet your minds out of the gutter for this particular Cartland title. I looked it up. It's called that because the hero is blind. Obviously. (While on Cartland news, I have recently obtained another free Cartland, so there's something for us all to look forward to. Coming soon!)
A conversation with my mother's partner:
John: Did you know that Michael's wife had the baby?
Me: No. What variety?
John, reading off a piece of paper without wearing glasses: It's called Lucas Glen.
Me: That would be a boy, then.
John: I would think so, yes. It was ninety-one pounds.
Me: Ninety-one pounds?
John: That's a good size, isn't it?
Me: I'll say.
John: Yes, well, Michael was a big lad.
Me: Babies are large-ish if they weigh nine pounds.
John: Well, that is a good size, isn't it? [Puts on glasses to read paper again.) Oh, that's an L. Nine pounds.
