AAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Am I stupid or what!?

Thought we'd got the day nicely sorted. Even went to the coffee shop on our way to the RVI to double check that there would be no order until Saturday. This was at 2.30.

Got to the hospital where I was expecting to have new lenses prescribed, only to be told that the ones I have already are absolutely fine and that my vision wouldn't be any better with new ones. So, in a way that's a good thing and saves me some money.

Got home and started mixing a chocolate cake ready for next week's birthday cake order, only to be interrupted by a text from Kevin pleading for more cakes for tomorrow morning. Apparently there'd been a bit of a run on cakes after we left!

So, there ensued some frantic conversations with Wor Kev, who was eager to take whatever I'd got in stock and who suggested we meet at the Ridley Arms, thus saving him paying his delivery charge. Canny, eh?

As I was planning to spend the morning in Morpeth anyway, I suppose it's not too far out of my way, BUT yet again, I find myself playing catch up with stock and, instead of spending the day decorating the birthday cake, I now need to replenish the freezer again.

I suppose I shouldn't be complaining and I really need to learn to be a little more relaxed about my plans, but I just can't understand how, in the middle of the afternoon there was plenty of stuff left in the shop and two hours later there was nothing. Must have been some very hungry people in Jesmond today.
