On hearing the first fieldfares of Autumn

It's been a long week and I found myself waking up at twenty to ten. The Small Object of Desire was already awake, which was even more unusual.


"Hello you. Do you want me to make you a nice cup of tea?"

She said, snuggling up to me.

"Yes please," I replied.

"This is the bit where I usually go back to sleep, isn't it?" she asked.

"Yes."

"It's good to be predictable."

An hour later, I'm fighting the urge to put the kettle on.

Never fight the urge.....

Scarlet: we wouldn't dare, the innuendo would keep us giggling for days.

Libby: ordinarily I wouldn't, there was a principal at stake and we're both a bit bloody-minded

That is exactly the discussion that occurs in my household on a Saturday morning. x
