Not a good week - after household white appliances reduced my bank balance on Monday - today, son's car (Mondeo) is playing up, so grandad had to step into the breach - walk to his house (1 mile) AND be there for 20 to 8; stay with kids until schooltime for one - take him, with granddaughter in pushchair to school, back home and 'babysit' granddaughter until midday when son's mother-in-law took over.
So, after walking 3 miles, 2 of which included pushing a McLaren (buggy - not Formula 1 car
) uphill - I'm Christmas crackered. Add to that - I didn't get any breakfast because of the sudden need for my services - and I'm off for a lie down
