Oops..Late again!
I text my wife to say I'd be home late as I was meeting the lads for a few beers after work.
Within seconds she was calling me back, "Dave! You know it's Parents Evening!"
"I thought you could go instead." I replied. "You did last year."
"And look at the trouble it caused," she insisted. "The Head said he'd sack you if you ever tried that again!"
