Decision Time

I was expecting to be at a reception in Parliament this evening - drinks and food courtesy of my trades union and an MSP. I was looking forward to it, whilst being apprehensive about getting home around 10pm and suffering for it tomorrow. 

About the first thing I saw this morning was an email cancelling it. Decision Time - when the MSPs vote on all the day's business - had been put back from 6pm until 9pm, so none of them would get to the party. 

The rest of the day was a bit of an anticlimax. I had polished up my security pass and my bus pass. I had even remembered to wear my drinking trousers. 

Well, I have had a decision of my own to dwell on this evening. A Bavarian non-alcoholic beer or an English alcoholic cider? Yup... easy choice.
