Ma, don't get cheeky with me!!
Actually, I'm gonna go up to Eileen's on Christmas Eve on the bus, and spend two days. My children are driving up Boxing Day and will drive me back down that night. I WILL make them take The Bridge...
BTW, people 'Eileen' is my stepmom, and was married to my dad for 35 years before his death. 'Bob' is a mutual friend of theirs living with her now. He's a hell of a good man, and I believe my dad would be happy with this arrangement. I certainly am.
