Sorry, have I fallen into a Suburbian Sitcom?
-
Mrs Wife has just called to say we're having a colleague over for dinner on Sunday. Hoho nothing wrong there. Oh, I have to pick her up from Heathrow T5 as she's flying in from Budapest. Do you think it would be okay for her to stay the night with us as she's only over for meetings on Monday and is flying back Monday night. I'll need to drive them into London Monday morning as they need to be in for a 7am meeting. Elephants, that's what I say. Elephants.
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done. Drink. Get drunk. Fall over - P O'H OK, I will win to day or my name isn't Ethel Crudacre! - DD Ethel Crudacre I cannot live by bread alone. Bacon and ketchup are needed as well. - Trollslayer Have a bit more patience with newbies. Of course some of them act dumb - they're often *students*, for heaven's sake - Terry Pratchett
Just wait till Trevor next door, who is having double glazing fitted, comes round for coffee. He will see aforementioned house guest and, being the 'Ladies Man' that he is will attempt to seduce her. This will lead to a sequence of increasingly improbable and yet charmingly amusing incidents culminating in the need for a pint and to buy a new Fish Tank.

On a clear road, it's 45 minutes to their offices - straight up the A3 then left after Vauxhall Bridge. POP. Coming out of London at 7am on a Monday morning on the other hand will be a tad more trying.

On a Monday, up Camera Alley? Good luck! It'll be easier getting out than in... :laugh:

THE A3, on a Monday morning? It's a good few years since I was doing that between the M25 and the Esher turnoff, and it was hell then.
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

We'll be going through around 6, shouldn't be stupid by then. I also did Ripley-Esher when I worked over in Epsom, it was less than fun going in for 8:30. BTW, do you know The Plough in Horsell? It's under new management and is very nice again.

So at which point are you going to lose your trousers and then get locked out of the house before attempting to climb in through an upstairs window whilst trying to keep your elderly, racist neighbour from talking to your guest?

No, Mrs Wife is earning all the money and I am just a simple house-husband. :-D On second thoughts, yup I am under the delightful thumb of my lurve.

That normally happens somewhere between the third and fourth [bottle of] gin.
