Tired

We had quite a party last night!

My lady has retired, so we had to have a 'Do'.

Her lovely colleagues organised it and we just had to turn up.

She had presents and kisses and hugs and a bit too much 'falling down water'

We had a strange fizzy Italian red at the restaurant [Semi frizzante?]

Anyway, it was all very jolly and we didn't get home until nearly 1am, then stayed up laughing a bit more finally getting to be at 3.

Up with the lark <poetic license> the dog, of course, didn't have a hangover.

Off we trudged.

So I took a shot to sum up how I felt.

Tired, a bit washed out and black and white.
