From the woods, Dad drove to a local pub.
It's close to one of the places they house-sit, and they'd dog-walked there before.

I was delighted - the 'rents don't eat out very often, so this was a real treat. Also, taking me to a pub showed a lot of trust and love. I've never got steaming drunk in a pub with my parents, never shown them up or caused a scene. But I know Mum doesn't really understand the reasons I drank, or the specific circumstances, so this required faith on her part, which I do appreciate.

For the record - Diet Coke

I won't worry about the caffeine content, it was the Smallest Diet Coke in the World (tm)
Three sandwiches, one chips, two Diet Cokes and half a Stella. How much? £18. HOW MUCH?! Blimey. Good job there was a lovely view from the garden.
