I don’t have any milk,

Wonder what they’re up to next door?

Not as sunny this morning as yesterday.

Typical!

Driving all that way yesterday,

And my arm is so sunburned.

It’s a wonder I slept last night.

Enjoyed the weekend though.

How long is it till I go away again?

Must get the washing…

Well, that’s an improvement.

Wonder how long this one will take.

Will I need a shave before I get through?

What time am I out tonight?

Must remember to check on my phone

If I ever finish this call.

Finish? Hah!

Have to start first.

But that would be…

Hello?

 

What?

Sorry, who are you?
