So it was that John Smith became the third wheel in their little family situation. He might have pouted a bit more, but really he was a social kind of bloke and didn't really notice that Tara was being awkward to him because look at all the people that had turned out! Brilliant! So fantastic. He kept looking around at everyone and everything and just smiling, as if to say Isn't this the most wonderful thing?
Of course, it helped that -real- pancakes were being offered here. He would have to make sure to meet the man who set this up and chat his ear off.
