Lost child

Following a lie in & an impromptu suggestion, we all headed to Ikea. I did want a few things so it wasn't just something to do to kill time.
We strolled around pretty leisurely but Gracie managed get herself lost. I suspect, as any parent would with a missing child, there was a panic beneath Alex's calm exterior, especially in such a place as big as Ikea. She was found & was quite teary & then didn't leave Alex's side afterwards.
We then went straight from there to meet Sinead, where Alex treated me to dinner at the Ram's Head.... inclusive of a delicious dessert.
