Well, for those of you not on my facebook....
I finished work at 5pm, waited for 15mins, in the rain, for a bus home - soaked (i had my ballet pumps on at work today so needless to say, my feet were squelchy). Now, my bus doesnt take me right home, so I had another 15minute walk in the rain - extra soaking.
I was just about at my flat when I opened my bag to get my housekeys and...... yup, left them in the house!!!! Fan*y.
Got someone to let me in the close and I stood in the hall for half an hour moping about feeling like an idiot - a frozen soaking idiot.
My mate Alastair drove down from his flat and rescued me. Took me to his and loaned me a pair of his combats and some socks and stuck my trousers and shoes on the radiator to dry!! I looked rather stunning with a pair of combats, 5 inches too short for my legs and a couple of sizes too big on the waist! But hell, I was dry!!!
It eventually stopped raining and my clothes dried, so I wandered back to the house after my OH got in from work, like a muppet.
The moral of the story is.... DONT MAKE CLAIRE WORK ON A BANK HOLIDAY!!!
