Be Careful What You Wish For!

Be Careful What You Wish For!

Living in an old back-to-back terraced home with no bathroom was no joke for a young girl.

Maria always wished for a pretty bathroom with a pink bath tub.

When she fell in love with Charlie she told him of bath nights with the old tin bath in front of the fir and her wishes for better.

Charled loved Maria and eagerly filled her dreams when he bought a three-bedroom house with a pink bathroom.

Sadly, Charlie lost his job soon after they married. He couldn't keep up the mortgage replayments. He knew they'd have to move in with his mother-in-law and Maria's dreams would be in tatters.

Charlie couldn't face telling Maria and decided to take his own life by drowning in the pink tub.

Maria reflected on her wishes and remembers her Mum always telling her to be careful what she wished for!
