here we go again

So, I have already fallen out with my Dad. It happened with depressing inevitability less than 48 hours into their visit. Now I have a permanent knot in my stomach. I just should not have been drawn into a late night discussion. I should have said no to the hot chocolate and gone straight to bed. And of course I should have kept my opinions to myself. 

Still, they are off to Chitwan today, and as luck would have it the flight has been put forward by a couple of hours, so they leave mid-morning. They haven't got up yet, so I'm writing this, waiting downstairs to apologise (again). Hopefully by the time I've apologised and they've had breakfast it will be time for them to leave...
