Ah Friday!  Le Weekend.  We had snow last night, so there were no buses running this morning.  No matter, just have the morning off and go in at lunchtime.  To be brutal, I only went in because I had a driving lesson at 4pm.  I noted that I was ready now for my test.  And, give or take 3 months or so, I was.  So that was that.  Somewhat spuriously, my entry ends with, ‘Had some chips when Mum, Dad came from pub.’  Please understand that this wasn’t a case of them having gone out together for a few drinks.  Oh, no.  This was Mum going to pick Dad up after his Friday night darts match.  Them having been to collect chips was a rare treat and very enjoyable!
