A recent conversation -

- daughter: is it all right if I don't get married?

- dad: of course, fine by me

- daughter: will something happen to me if I don't get married?

- dad: no, you'll be fine

- daughter: it just means that I'll have to catch buses everywhere ...

After work to-day, I'm catching the train to Kirkcaldy, to see a production of 'Aida' by Tayside Opera. A friend of mine is in the chorus. I'll be meeting my mum at the theatre. It should be a good evening, but long. I'll be lucky if I'm home by midnight.
