Thursday. Cloudy, damp and uncomfortably cold for the first time in what feels like forever. By lunchtime, it had warmed up, and patches of blue sky had appeared. Another quiet morning; everyone else in the house (just Vanessa and Dash) slept in while I set out for work. A very long day that started with supervising in the main office, but due to staff sickness, I wound up covering the late shift as well. Decent coffee at lunchtime helped considerably. It was nearly eight when I got home. Lasagne & chips for supper, and a pootle about in-game — mostly dino farming in Shipwreck Strand.
Dash was out at a Halloween party in Bridge, so a Dad’s Taxi run was required at midnight. Raff and his friends were on a late-evening flight from Prague and hired a minibus for the eight of them to get back to Canterbury. After dropping a few friends off in Folkestone, Raff finally arrived home around 2 a.m.
