After work, we are having fancy burgers for dinner.
I don’t know what a fancy burger consists of but I’m imagining it with a top hat and monocle :))
Absolutely :))

Guys. It’s been a hell of A Journey, as you know. And a really stressful 36 hours since I heard someone else had been picked but we were still waiting on the news. Anyway, Squeak got into the college rugby squad! Which is the best and most fabulous news ever. We are popping corks tonight!

I am stuck at a garage with my friend though. Her car isn’t safe to drive us home. :uhh: C sold his car this afternoon to Webuyanycar so he can’t come & get us.

Congrats to Squeak! I hope the car situation is sorted soon.
It’s like a normal midlife crisis only with more chandeliers and foreign languages.

Thanks. I'll give it a try - I'm sure they'll decompose if the ducks reject them.

Congrats to Squeak! You must be very proud of her.

Thanks all!

My friend’s husband came to get us & she’s trying to sort out getting her car to the dealership because the mechanic thought it should be under warranty. I hope she gets it sorted, it’s so bloody inconvenient to be without a car.

Honestly, C is that pleased you’d think he’d made the team himself. I nearly cried when I heard though and went a bit wobbly. It’s been horrible knowing about her friend since Wednesday and wondering what that meant (obviously we didn’t say anything to Squeak though). I’m glad all my platitudes were actually sort of truthful!

Congratulations Squeak!

Sal :)) wish I’d had fancy burgers instead of boring lasagne now.

How fantastic her hard work to recover and talent have gained her a place.

I hope you have champagne chilling for you all!

Is this the 2 seater he’s not long bought?

The children have gone to their dads so I’ve ordered a curry.

Oh no, the family 5 seater is gone. Which is why he couldn’t get two of us. Unless K fancied hopping on the back and holding on for dear life!
