This is such a joy, Cherry. Made me laugh. Wonderful incidental portrait of your carefully-tailored mum, too: "She wouldn't have been found dead fawning over rhubarb on the first decent Saturday of the season." (Mine would have happily bagged up all the rhubarb and been totally oblivious to the village gossip!)
But local life is a rich seam and you write so well!
I understand the dilemma. I get people at Pilates AND at choir, greeting me with, “Loved the bit about…” Which is fantastic. But also narrows down my potential topics :D

This is so funny. How funny people are when they are captured like this.
It was hilarious ... people are funny creatures.
Classic, Cherry. Almost made me wish I'd been there. Well, not quite . . . but love the dialogue!
Oh Chris! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
