A qwicky

Just a flyin' visit back to the apartment. I'm waiting for an egg to hard-boil, some tinned New Potatoes to reheat so that I can have a quick corn-beef salad before rushing back to the bar to get drunk with Beryl's Husband Randy. He is going home to the states early on Thursday so last chance to say "goodbye" is tonight (tomorrow he and Beryl want to themselves). Get drunk? I joke, I think.
