Today is the very day Father is released from hospital, hence why I've taken a day off. At 10am we arrived and by 11am Father was sitting in the back of a taxi with Mother whilst I was riding in the passenger seat next to the strangely bearded driver.
Mother prepared a lovely lunch when we returned, it consisted of Shipham's fish paste sandwiches, mini sausage rolls, cornish pasties, skips and Cadbury's mini rolls. As it was a special occasion she'd purchased a bottle of lambrini bianco to celebrate Father's homecoming which we both consumed with gusto, although Father had to add considerable amounts of lemonade to the wine in order not to interfere with his medication.
After lunch Father went for a sleep in his new room. Mother asked her friend Painter Dan to decorate it and I must say that it looks a treat - the arrows on the wallpaper really give it a homely feel and the linoleum is a great idea for dealing with any spillages. Strangely she's also had a lock fitted, which I queried but she said that Father was 'wont to wander' and this was the safest option.
Oh well, I must get back to dusting the garage this afternoon. The sheer amount of spider's webs have been worrying me for weeks. I'm back at work tomorrow and Saturday heralds my initial meeting with Mr A's fabled Mother....
