The Anonymous Widower

The Sting in the Tail

There always is, isn’t there!

I’d decided that the best way to get home from the hospital, would be to take a bus to Haverhill and then take a taxi.

As I left the hospital the 13 bus was there, so I ran to get on it. I may have had a stroke, but I can still run ande walk a few hundred metres or so.

I assumed that the bus would go straight to Haverhill Bus Station, as the previous one had done a couple of weeks ago.  But this one did an unguided tour of all the delightful estates and I ended up being dumped in a place I did not recognise. It hadn’t helped that because of the rain I couldn’t see out of the bus in the dark.

So it was a long walk to the Bus Station and then I couldn’t get a taxi without half-an-hour’s wait.

So something that should have been easy, made me late!

I get more fed up with the countryside every day.
