Last night

I didn't fancy cooking, so I had some cheese with chips and coleslaw. I spent the rest of the evening looking at the encyclopaedia of languages and turned in at nine. I could hear the kids upstairs playing nicely (apart from Little Miss Anthrax screaming out of the window occasionally), but I didn't hear mum at all. I suppose she must have gone out. The woman is incapable of staying quiet for more than three seconds at a time.
