I went out for a stroll yesterday lunchtime, and ended up walking along Hope Street.
As I walked past the Philharmonic Hall, an Aintee Coachline bus pulled up and disgorged about 100 Merchant Taylors’ pupils, presumably arriving for Speech Day. As I walked down Upper Duke Street back to the office, another similarly-laden bus passed. Walking down Bold Street I passed some more pupils making their way up to the Phil for the ceremony.
Combined with the person at work who asked me why I didn’t stay on and do my A-levels (and kept harping on when my vague answer didn’t satisfy her), it’s been a week of happy, happy memories for me. 😐
