Mags: Who's Sorry Now?
Not too bad. Ally and I were up at dawn, but nobody else surfaced. Connie Francis and 'Who's Sorry Now' was still ringing in my ears from Mags's singing at 5am and I bet quite a few people are sorry now going by the vast array of unwashed glasses and half eaten sausage rolls. Kieran came down at 10 and annoyed Ally by screaming and clowning whilst she was adding up. Sally's till was £19 down. Middlesbrough played Leeds Utd and it ended in a draw. A busy afternoon with thirsty football supporters. Afterwards, laying on our bed we could hear the mob over at Ayresome Park chanting and stamping. The barbecue was rained off again. A hot evening and a lengthy one in the bar. To bed early. Jon-Paul is a good worker. He's surnamed Sale and sounds very 'county'. His nephew christened tomorrow is named Tobias Crispin Norman.
