So near yet so far
Aug. 17th, 2008 04:51 pmNote to self: When packing for holiday, do not forget door key for getting home. This is somewhat important.
Failure to pack a key leads one to make an unscheduled time-killing trip into town to do some shopping, while waiting for the cat-feeding neighbour to return home (desperately hoping that he wasn't planning on staying out until midnight.) This leads to unexpected and accidental purchases in PC World and Game. Fortunately, the cat-feeding neighbour was home by the time we got back (narrowed saved from accidentally buying an XBox 360 by the fact that the shops closed at 4) and we are now home. "I nearly put the key through your letterbox this morning," he said.
It's all the tiling man's fault. He had Pellinor's key, and he also arrived just as we were leaving last Friday, which is why we managed to go off with the only key we had left to us sitting nicely in the lock on inside of the door.
Tiles look nice, though.
