The reason I forgot and had to Back-Blip

Julia was going to come home this weekend before shooting off to 'wherever' in the world there's the latest trouble spot. She phoned to say she couldn't come because she's on 2 hour standby and it would take 2.5 hours to get from home back to camp.
I think her RAF Police job is a cover and she's working with Mi6, or is that my imagination running away as I've just finished working my way, enjoyably, through all 22 Bond films from Dr No to Quantum of Solace. Hopefully, I'll have Skyfall next week as it is released on Monday.

Anyway, we heard someone come through the front door, or rather Jonty and Foxy alerted us to it, and we thought it would be Daniel, Joanne and the boys.
I went onto the landing only to find Julia creeping up the stairs! She had been allowed to go to 3 hour standby so she could get home for a day or two. Wonderful surprise, and the dogs were quite pleased as well!
