Since me dad died, there's now only two people who will ring on the house landline. I know this.
But my heart still breaks every time it rings, because my initial thought is 'that'll probably be me dad'.
And it won't ever be again.

At one point this weekend, two of our party were shot by talking bullets (a’la Roger Rabbit) fired by the Anthill Mob. I had to pull the bullets out and spent a productive bit of time quarrelling with them.
Then we fought the Master Control Programme.

Just reminded of this.
My mum used to say this about the definition of ‘expert’, always worth hanging onto.
