After the events of the week, the outlaws' visit finished up like every other: with us sitting round on Friday morning drinking coffee and whiling away the hours until it was time to take them to the airport. This year's flights have been at much more civilised times than usual and today we only had to be at the airport by 11am. With hugs, kisses, and promises to do it all again next year (well, not quite all of it, we hope!) they disappeared behind the doors of the departure hall, leaving us to go shopping and return to normal mundanity.
The rest of the day was taken up with laundry, changing the bed, helping a neighbour fix up their new PC and picking Blythe up for the weekend. And after a week of high living it was good to get back to the simplicity of cheesy tea and an early evening DVD (Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer!)
1. What's your favorite cereal?
Porridge. There was a time when I had a bowl of porridge every day for almost two years. Winter and summer. I also like those little round nutty clusters that you don't see very often here but are common in the US. I used to think they were granola, but I know now that's different.
2. What is too gross to eat in the morning?
Kippers. Never understood that as a breakfast food.
3. What time do you go to bed?
About 10.30 to 11pm in the week, but if we've been watching TV beforehand I may well already have had an hour's sleep on the sofa by then! Weekends tends to be a little later. Very occasionally I'll stop up 'til 1am or so if I'm working on something like the book club website or the photos for the Chorlton Players.
4. Where do you put your keys?
Coat pocket.
5. What vegetables do you love?
Roast parsnips and any kind of potato. Onions. Celery. Red cabbage. Fresh peas straight from the pod, eaten raw.
