okay, yesterday, Monday lunchtime, turn on phone in staffroom at work. Listen to cryptic answerphone message from father - something about mother needing help and could I leae my phone on. I leave my phone on.
6.30 this morning, phone goes. Dad is in San Francisco. Mother is not really very well, fell out of bed couple of days ago, had ambulance. Dad would not have gone to SF had he known, but there was mixup and stupidity and he has to stay for part of the conference he is at. He wants me to go home to London for two days till he gets back, just to look after her. Think I will go. Need to chat to Robert. I said no way could I leave before the end of work today as yesterday was madly busy. It would mean missing Wednesday and Thursday.
I hope work are okay with this. I wouldn't usually do it, but ARGH. Now is one time when it would be good to have a temp job I could just walk out of.
Going to go and make sandwiches and wash clothes now.
