The Final Instalment of The Saga Of The Lump
The final instalment of the Saga of the Lump actually started last Thursday. Simon had taken the day off work so that I could go to a Revenue and Customs class on allowable business expenses. He sent me a text in the middle saying ‘Ring me as soon as.’ I texted back saying I didn’t [...]
