Retirement

It's not even a lunchbox. But it did the job every school day for the last four years. Even after the zip bust and I had to use a bulldog clip to hold it together.

But today was Ruby's last proper day ever at school. Exam leave now and then it's all over after the final exam. So, the old camera bag can be retired and the bulldog clip used for something more appropriate.

Then it was time to drive Mrs Smith to the dentist followed by the car dealership. Where we waved goodbye to the old car she's had for ten years (not that she ever learned the number plate). And I found a CD was still in the player "now that's what I call music 76" and by removing it I think I halved the value of the car. A short while later we drove away in the brightest yellow car anyone has ever seen.
