I (eventually) got home last night to be greeted by a very excited Soph.<\/p>\n
“Shall I tell you the surprise?!” she asked with such great enthusiasm that I was left in no doubt as to the correct answer.<\/p>\n
Soph doesn’t do secrets, not the way I do.<\/p>\n
“I’m taking you away tomorrow night,” she said. “I’ve booked a hotel in Bath and a restaurant and everything!”<\/p>\n
And so this evening, when we’re both done with work and have packed a few things, we’re on our way westwards. Without the Ho. That’s a joke.<\/p>\n
In other news…<\/p>\n
Here’s a bizarre thing. The soundtrack in my head is a song I haven’t heard for about four months – ‘Build’ by The Housemartins.<\/p>\n
I’m going to have to look it out now.<\/p>\n
Here’s another bizarre thing.<\/p>\n
The question in my head is ‘Whatever happened to Linda Bartlett and Sue Batten?’<\/p>\n
Two people who haven’t been in my head for years.<\/p>\n
