When the flock leave home

[Nick]

I feel like that. The Boy has just appeared claiming that his head 'feels funny'. I guess if I had been up all night juggling mine would too. No sympathy here. He has gone back to bed

So your head can be removed?

Only once

No doubt she will be knackered when she arrives back but also just as pleased to see you 

Hope she has a safe and uneventful return trip Growler

My little Mooselet is starting her long and weary journey home this evening.
I'm actually quite excited cus I luv her loads.

It's her burfday next week, and I'm taking her to the indoor skiing center in Tamworth next weekend so she can show me her new found skills.

Are you joining in?

Oh yes indeed. Plenty of life and adventure in the old bear yet.

Arrival in the small hours?

[Miss Demeanour]

Well she'll have plenty to remember from her first school trip abroad and will laugh at it in the years to come.

Right now it's just the practicalities of getting back home , catching up on sleep before school starts again tomorrow, getting the washing done and going through the slide show later of all the pictures she has taken. This is so and so in the snow etc etc etc   

Hope you have not been lying awake worrying or waiting for a call though

[Nick]

Arrival in the small hours?

Who knows now. 

Disaster has struck the party upon departure apparently. Currently waiting ( at 7:30 pm) for the breakdown recovery service and the Austrian equivelant of the RSPCA.
Seems a cat decided to have a kip on the nice warm engine, but didn't quite make it out of the bay before the driver started up.
I'll spare you the tearful horrendously bloody and graphic observations from a distressed Mini Moose.
The two numbers I've got to call are both kicking into answer phone mode, and my text messages aren't getting through.
At this moment in time, I have absolutely no idea where they are or even in fact if they are mobile.
Having witnessed this sort of nasty incident once, I would guess there could possibly be some fairly substantial mechanical damage to the coach.
It's a long way from Edinburgh for a repalcement.

Tomorrow could be a long day and night.

At least it wasn't a badger!

[Miss Demeanour]

Is she back yet ????????????????????????????????

[Nick]

Nope. They ran over a badger near Dover.

Funeral in progress
