RE: Accosted in a cafe

Hey Galen; what's crackin' your end this arvy? I couldn't help but notice the cream filled lamington and was sucked into this post - came through the coffee curation post - and, there ya go, was surprised to see a name I knew.

Ain't those persky drop ins annoying, eh?
My wife and I used to do this thing, where we'd be at our local McCafe at 7am/7.30am on a Saturday morning - we'd buy up our coffees and read the paper. I'm not sure if you'd remember I'm a school teacher, and, after a while, I knew every kid who worked there. Needless to say, we no longer spend our Saturday mornings reading the paper.

(The hot tip for McCafe over other cafes, is that the tables are large, you can fit two papers open in a booth, and they don't try and hurry you up to make you leave!).

Hey mate, I'm just rounding out the working week, about 90 minutes to go.

Yeah, those drop-ins. I mean, I'm not anti-social or anything, but I value my own time and space so leave me the hell alone! Lol.

I totally understand why you'd not want to go to that Maccas anymore, but a great life hack on the table size! 😄

I hope you're well and heading home soon; school's out soon right? Have a great weekend. Have a cream-filled lamington.

You are welcome for the hack; and school is indeed out. It's been out for two weeks, was on isolation with a family member testing positive the week before, and then I had my positive covid test last Sunday.

I've basically had no complications with covid, a swollen uvula for a few days, and a dry mouth for a few hours. I've had a bit of fun with it, was zooming into the classroom for my seniors - had my big head on the classroom screen, camera on the class. No rest for the wicked, or so I'm led to believe.

Will catch ya tomorrow for the weekend, already checked out the prompts and the old nogging of mine is already starting to roll together an idea, but won't publish until Saturday ;) See you then.

It sounds like you've managed the situation reasonably well and haven't left the students high and dry. No rest for the wicked indeed.

I'll see you around on THE WEEKEND community if you get around to doing a post this week. Have a great weekend.
