Easter began with a miracle for us in the first year of our Directress Giovanna's reign (Blessed may she be to all the Saints) at The Satyricon Diner in London.
Our esteemed friend and colleague Lourdes discovered that she was with child, conceived during the Holy week of Christmas under forgotten circumstances. The Holy Spirit had clearly entered her womb during a evening of alcoholic excess and mystery. We were on hand as the drama unfolded over the months preceding Easter as Lourdes experiencing many symptoms of IBS, violent outbursts and a bloated belly. Never once did we expect that a child of God was growing inside her as we discussed various symptoms over coffee and spirits on table 34 (the much disputed high table next to the dumpstation, the dustbin and the coffee machine and the scene of many a debauched scenario ) as Lourdes swore to us of her purity over the last two years. So we scratched our heads and then on a Saturday afternoon the blow fell upon Lourdes. . .
glory be
