Bianca started getting calls from friends and family wishing her a Happy Birthday....

When Rosie arrived with another entree.....

This was not turning out to be the evening Rex had had in mind....

"Sweetie, you know, that phone is ruining the 'Medieval' atmosphere."

"Your family and best friends have already called you, so it's time to put the phone away."

"Here, I'll take it...."

Bianca reluctantly passed it to Rex, who offered it to Rosie.
"Could you take this, and put it in the coat check with my cloak, please?"

But Bianca interrupted...
"Could you please just take one more photo of the two of us before you bring it away?"

Rosie was only too happy to oblige, and finally get the phone out of the room....

"There you go."

LOL I know, I'm so bad. But I think with the phone gone, the evening can finally proceed as Rex had hoped.

*chuckle* I've been out at restaurants with friends and family members who do the same thing. Good for Rex (and Rosie). : )

It's so extremely annoying.

And since this story takes place in modern times, I figured a little 'social commentary' might be warranted. Something to set themse photos apart from when the true owners of the outfits come back, and I start taking photos back in 'real' Medieval times.

LOL. Love it. Kinda reminds me of the time Mom and I were at a Chinese restaurant, and some woman at a "party table" got a call and walked over to stand over our table and yell into her phone. Mom and I both looked at her and said, "How rude these people with their cell phones are." The woman stepped back, her face wet red, and she ran away towards the front of the restaurant. People just don't get it sometimes. :-)

Yup. Or like when we took our son and partner out for lunch, and they are constantly responding to calls. Like, can't it wait a half hour??

Finally a little time for romance and celebration.

I love the story Laura shared. How did some people exist before cell phones?

I don't have a cellphone, and survive just fine. In fact it gives me more time to be creative.
