Yes, I finally got home last night. By the time I dropped off Lulu and walked down the path to my granny flat, it was dark. Then a light came on from landlord upstairs...'be careful when you go down the steps Beth, I've been doing some work down there.' I had my arms full of stuff and just came to a dead stop! W...
