Burning the midnight oil

I've just got home from a late meeting. Phew, I'm whacked!!!!

Meeting started at 6pm and the fag-end was still burning at gone 10.20pm when I decided to call it a day - or night - the longest work meeting I've been to for ages.

That's a 12-plus-hour shift today and poor Mummy had to deal with the kids tonight single-handedly.

I'll have to make it up to her. If only I could think of how.

I'm most definitely off to bed now.
