Friday 15 May - Dentist 2, End of SATs, Druckers, Bleeding Gums, Borders, Missed Meal

Went back late this morning and got a good gouging, perhaps my punishment for being away for so long. Whatever the reason I think I should have mentioned that I was supposed to be going out this evening, for a meal with the team, and that it would have been nice to sit at a table WITHOUT SPITTING UP BLOOD EVERY FEW MINUTES..

Deb and the Kids arrived home about 3:30, today was the last day of Nat's SATs so to celebrate Deb said we could all go to, either, Duckers’ or Border’s Starbucks to celebrate. It’s a good thing we grabbed a corner table at Duckers’ because otherwise I might have put a few people off their extortionately expensive cakes and coffee’s. Every time I sipped my coffee the heat caused my gums to bleed profusely and I had to spit it all out into a tissue.
I was supposed to be going out around 6:00 but it was beginning to look doubtful that I’d be able to make it. Hung on but eventually sent a text, to everyone whose number I had, explaining the situation and letting them know I wouldn’t be coming. Got a hilarious response back from Ash.

Now the decision had been taken we went from Duckers’ to WH Smiths and from there to Borders to have a look at the books and magazines. I purchased the second Pax Britannia Novel Nat got White Dwarf (which is the Warhammer magazine – it’s a game) and a Warhammer 40,000 Omnibus Novel whilst Han picked up a couple of 2 for 1 books from the kids section. Whilst we were there Deb went to Sainsbury’s. Re: The meal - I found out later that only 5 people had managed to make it to the meal and felt pretty bad that I’d had to let them down too.

Got home about 7:30 no one felt like a meal after the cakes we’d had so I made everyone sandwiches and we read our books. Finally put the box on about 9:00 and watched a bit of TV. Nat stayed down late, as we had promised he could, now that his SATs were over. Down recall what we watched so it must have been good!
