It's been a long and crazy day. It started with an early visit from my daughters in tag-team mode (just as I'm getting back to sleep the other one shows up). I spent breakfast time scraping a thin layer of snow from the drive hoping that the sun today would warm the resulting black-ish surface and get rid of the layer of ice. Then it was bus-waiting time (pictured!).After I got to work I developed a nasty headache but fortunately, a dose of paracetamol (or as the joke doesn't go here: "Why are there no aspirin in the jungle? because the acetaminophen!" - thanks locals) started to work just when I was giving up on it.
After work I headed north for a church meeting. After that there was just time to stop at the supermarket to do our weekly grocery shopping - it was kind of late and not the place I've been going since taking this job on from Exile #2 a couple of weeks ago - still I did quite well except that I presume I left a bag somewhere because two loaves of bread are missing - hopefully not too much else with them. By the time I got home even Exile #2 was in bed asleep - but the drive is largely ice free.
It's pop pun 94 for title watchers (actually a mis-heard lyric of a song that was playing at the supermarket today - one of their many British pop tunes). Every time you go away...
Just as long as you didn't leave the Oates in the bag with the bread as well, you'll have realised that the song was originally a US pop song. Maybe it's in the Hall?

Ha! no I didn't - but the one playing in Price Chopper was the version I remembered from when I was Young.
ReplyDeleteDidn't you give the title away in the last line of the blog? Is this a pop pun first? - locals
ReplyDeleteDoes that make it the worst pop pun ever? I doubt it, but the fans will decide!
ReplyDeleteI think you'll get away with it! Always good to have added assistance in recalling about 2 lines of some long forgotten 80s tune, which I can then spend the rest of day the humming merrily to myself! Keep up the good work :-) N
