We’d barely left the sight of the marina before I had a beer in one hand, a glass of wine in the other hand and various other shenanigans incoming.
A great time was had. Tunnels sailed through, beers drunk, lifty uppy bridges navigated, aqueducts crossed, and amazingly not actually that much rain.
It’s not quite his first job, but then again it wasn’t my first job either. However, we now have a Steele boy tradition of working at Maccies. One of my fave jobs when I worked there in Rochdale.
