… First Day Of The Month.
Halfway through the year.
Soon be Christmas.
Also, it’s my wedding anniversary.
And I forgot.
Genuinely.
I know it’s an old cliché for men to forget their wedding anniversary, but I truly forgot.
I think that’s the second time in twenty-seven years.
Oh well, I’m sure I will (have to) make amends later.
Yesterday, I went into the office. That’s only the second time this year. The last time I went, I had a horrendous journey home, due to an accident on the M1 causing a huge tailback.
Yesterday, I again had a horrendous journey home, due to an accident on the M25. I actually gave up and went to my cousin’s house instead, for a cup of tea and a natter, so it worked out OK in the end… apart from getting home pretty late.
But the reason for this (admittedly, now rather rare) trip into the office, was for a face to face team meeting. It’s good to be seeing people in 3D again.
And then the boss delighted us all by taking us out to lunch.
He’d spotted a stall selling pie, mash and liquor on his way in and so we ended up eating there.
Wow! I love pie, mash and liquor, but I’ve not had it for years. What a treat!
Sometimes it’s the simple things.
If only I’d thought to bring some home.
As an anniversary present.
I guess your lucky you did not get a custard pie on arriving home from your real manager.
How many years for you? We will be at 45 in October. Think I must have forgotten 1 or 2 during that time.
Must admit when I first saw the pic I thought what the F*** is that. I think my mum bought me that from the Pie & eel shop (I had gravy)when I was about 10 at one end of Shepherds Bush market.
Twenty seven long, hard years.
Ahh, see, what you had there is pie, mash and gravy. That’s completely different.
Forty-five years? Jeez. Well done you two.
i want to have that! wishing you both a happy anniversary
And you can, because it’s not far away.
Thanks for the belated.
Twenty-seven years? You don’t even get that for manslaughter any more. Congratulations on this new milestone. I’m sure an appropriate penance as been levied by now.
You don’t? Now why is information like that not included in the marriage vows?
Thanks for the belated.
