This morning Pirate had a date with the hygienist...then a sandwich lunch by the sea
Then reflexology for us both...reeeelax!!
But things turned to custard as we arrived home and he couldn't get his phone out of his pocket fast enough....missed call from the hospital...15 minutes earlier than they had said.
Despite calling them and leaving a message as we have to, no call back.....and they work until 6.
No wonder Pirate went to bed early. Hopefully they will call again tomorrow.
I am watching a Sky Arts programme about John Steinbeck and the Grapes of Wrath...the conditions then and the reaction to the book....and how it inspired Jack Kerouac...and how it is relevant today.

That is so frustrating. I have been in that situation and feel for you.
A shame pirate could not connect on that missed call! Better luck today.
I read the Grapes of Wrath a very long time ago. this program sounds like it would be interesting.
It is SO very relevant today. It breaks my heart how relevant it is.
Ugh. That is SO frustrating. It's annoying how no one answers the phone anymore when you call the hospital. Dave has the same experience here.
I'm sorry the day "turned to custard" (errgh!), but happy to learn that phrase---I got the idea, but looked it up and learned it's from New Zealand--is that where you learned it, or is it British too?
Frustration adds nothing to helping us feel any better. Hope he got the call today.
