argh
Well Valentine's day was a bit of a non-starter. didn't know whether the usual gifts, flowers, chocolates etc would be misinterpreted as a proposal of marriage so i went low key this year. Don't think Mandy was terribly impressed. To be honest I didn't really feel like celebrating valentine's day anyway, not after what happened.
Mother dragged me to some tea part at a friend of hers, apparently their 15 year old daughter is very pretty (hello? she's 15?) and eligible. So i endured several hours of probing questions and weak tea whilst my mother beamed at me, giving me encouraging nods. The girl herself, looked absolutely terrified, i suppose i must look like a grandad to her! After the torture i went to the pub, didn't come home til the next afternoon. Mother had arranged another dinner but i said i was ill.
I've finally managed to escape back to my own flat, Mother owls on a daily basis, and i'm thinking of making my home unplottable. seriously. Maybe i need a holiday...
