The boy on the bus

The boy on the bus said that if he did do it he would feel as though he had just blown £30k on an expensive three year holiday.

OK, if you wanted to be a professional like a doctor or a dentist, then pay for the training. Otherwise, there were apprenticeships & other schemes where someone else paid you to learn. It’s a no brainer.

He then went on to explain that they must plan the arrangements for their first all-boys holiday together. It isn’t just as simple as turn up at the airport & get on a plane, there’s all sorts of other stuff you never thought about, like passports & getting there in time, because your mum & dad just took care of it all.

A boy to make any mum or grandma proud.

Mind you, I would have preferred it if he weren’t shouting all this into his mobile right next to my ear.
