T is for timeslot

Funny how things move when you're waiting. I was scribbling away at the weekend newspaper, trying to find a four letter word across, when the Boy marched in declaring that -they can put a robot on Mars but they can't figure out these damned times?!-

Old fashioned but to the point, he has a way with words that never ceases to entertain me.

Yes, we have been waiting all day for the movers to arrive. Ikea arrived in its allotted time but that was from 9-1pm which in itself is a bit ridiculous of a slot.

Why do they do that I wonder? Imagine how little we would get done if our friends said let's meet around 12-4pm.

ADVICE: if you've made plans with someone, honour them. If you really can't show up, call in advance! All of these things would be muchly appreciated.
