Well, that was... interesting.

keziathHaving driven back up to my parents for the weekend, I found myself rather stuck yesterday evening due to an itty-bitty oversight. I'd brought my keys with me since my parents weren't going to be back from visiting my sister until late, but somehow I don't have a key to the inner porch door, just to the outer. Cue me sitting in the porch phoning my parents with a line of very confused cats forming on the other side of the (glass paneled) door.
In the end my mum's friend gave me shelter for a few hours, so I ended up with a pub meal, some good company and a nice warm lounge to wait in. All's well that ends well. It turns out that one of the people I was having dinner with used to own the riding stables I went to when I was younger, although I didn't find that out until I got home. No wonder I was trying to think who he reminded me of!
Now I'm busy (supposedly) helping sort stuff out ready for when my parents move out, but there's a remarkably large amount of emailing going on >.>
I have made sure to lay claim to the partial bolt of cloth that I was told I could have - it turns out it isn't cotton, it's actually some sort of polyester mix, but it's decent stuff (especially since it's free!) and a totally unobjectionable cream colour. I'm sure I'll be putting that to good use shortly.
Suppose I'd better get back to work! :)
