what a f-fing day this was


Well my father arrived safe and sound. Hit the grouse quite heavily and is still drunk now. He is absolutely unbearable and I have no energy to spend on it. So I am not. I refuse.


Anyway. I also helped a friend of mine move today. She is moving in with her boyfriend. I had to go early because I also had to buy a present for a colleague who is leaving (I bought her something at Gucci's. Trust me, it is not the experience that you would think it to be. I was disappointed). So my input was limited to drinking coffee, eating sausage rolls and doing a spot of washing up. They wouldn't have been able to cope without me.

The prodigal father returns..

I have just heard that my dad will arrive, with German friend, within a few hours. I have not seen him for over 6 years so I am a little apprehensive. He is a bit of an alky, my dad... so will he behave himself or will it be a great big booze induced frenzied reunion? My fear grows by the minute.....
