1 pm: Doorbell rang
At the door: utterly forgotten very old friends and 10 year old daughter, presently living in Vancouver, on their way from London to the north of England, here for lunch arranged by sooperorganised husband many months ago.
(Husband: Engaged in Very Very Important Hospital Bizness, mobile firmly turned off)
...Went to the pub.
