We're back off to NC this morning after slightly longer in the UK than expected. So I'll be quieter (and probably more productive) than I have been lately. It's been hitting 100F in Wake at the moment - that'll be refreshing.

Um, Plan B now in operation.

ETA: We have proven beyond all doubt that this is the fault of the Inland Revenue.

Eeep!!

Er, *is* there a Plan B?

Plan B is progressing mightily. It's: "stay in the UK for a week until they issue a new passport".

Ouch. I'm sorry, on top of the previous uncertainnty/changes of plan, you must be rather discombobulated!

I am feeling quite serene, actually. Nothing to be done, therefore, no point in stressing.

Oh, good for you! I'm glad that you're ok.

Also, I should try that approach myself, sometime. :-)

Nobody's dead, nobody's sick, all limbs intact, weather's gorgeous. Things could be about fifteen trillion times worse.

Very true. Cuppa?

Tea and cuteness, a sovereign combination.

OK, that's not really tea in the cup...

A cup of cute works just as well for me.

I might even go so far as to venture, "Bugger."

I have nothing but admiration for your restraint. I hope there is much to be enjoyed in the week of enforced repatriation, at least? :|

Eh, no point getting worked up about the unchangeable. And now I've signed up for Blog a Penguin Classic I've converted "extra week at home" to "free book". So that's a start.

Also, the weather's lovely, and nowhere near 100F.

OMG!!! I'm so sorry! At least the house is clean ;-(

LOL! Yes! And I have time to do some more cleaning!

Good for the blood pressure!

For that there is fanfiction.

Oh dear, that's really quite unfortunate. Um, at least it's going to be sunny this weekend?

And not at 100F temperatures!

It seems that at least your cloud has a substantial silver lining.

Enjoy your extra week in the UK.

I probably wouldn't signed up for Blog a Penguin Classic. So - free book!

My thoughts exactly.

Oh dear. Also bother.

You really knew what you were doing when you picked that icon.

I get to use it alarmingly often.

I would have thought it would be an ecumenical matter.

Bloody Catholic Church, they have a hand in all my woes.

So sorry you've been stranded! Well done for taking it with humour (and better than having it happen on the other side, I guess...).

Well, if I didn't laugh, I'd be bashing my head against the wall - so, laughing best option!

Yeah, those 100F temperatures didn't look great, I have to say!
