I slept well last night;
having a small dog sleeping downstairs works wonders for a good
night's sleep. I got up, checked cyber-space, and posted a
rather lame video to "Daddies Little Angel TM".
I spent an hour on rather
convoluted wheri-programming then "My Boy TM"
came round. Narrowly avoiding getting tangled in "Operation
Stack" we made our way to Deal where we soon met up with "er
indoors TM" who had collected "Daddies
Little Angel TM" and her entourage.
Nine of us then went
swimming. Or that was the plan. Nine of us waited for a while until
enough people had finished swimming so's that we could be admitted to
the pool. A "rather special" attendant informed us
due to "Health and Safety" no more than one hundred
aand eighten people could be in the pool at any one time. An odd
number I thought, but what do I know?
She gave us a ticket and
said she's call its number when enough people had left. I counted
about fifty people in the pool, and after about twenty minutes of
being glared at by the woman in the lesiure centre's cafe our number
was called and we went swimming.
Despite the staff we had
a good time. Baby had never been swimming before; we went expecting
him to find it all rather daunting. We were wrong; he seemed to love
it. It was only a shame we had to leave so soon. We'd put two hours
on the car park tickets and that would have been about right had we
not had to sit about waiting for no adequately explored reason.
I was dressed first, and
seeing a traffic warden in the car park I zoomed out to the cars.
Seeing our time was running out she'd staked out our cars ready to
ticket them. I got to the cars with one minute left on our tickets,
so I bought tickets for another half an hour. The traffic warden
watched me do so with an expression akin to that of a bulldog licking
piss from a stinging nettle. She was *not* pleased about it.
Totally failing to find
the Dover McDonalds we drove on to the Folkestone one where we all
had a rather good feast. And the kids (and Grandad) had a
McFlurry each.
I slept all the way home,
then took "Furry Face TM" for a
walk round the park. I had planned to drive out to Wheri-test but I
was aching after the swimming and it was cold. Wheri-testing will
keep.
We walked round to Kim &
Andy's. We had a rather goodd tea. All sorts of scoff washed down
with home made brown ale. Then "Guitar Hero" and
ChromeCast games until the early hours.
Good job it's a later
start tomorrow...
