Difficult Decisions

Robbie was late home on Friday evening, but when we settled down after our evening meal and I was just looking forward to a whole weekend with Robbie when he received a text. The rail tour company had a last minute mini tour and Robbie had been offered the chance to go on it. I asked him where it was and I could hardly believe my ears when he said it was from Glasgow to Fort William and back. It would have involved Robbie travelling to Scotland on Saturday afternoon and he would have had to catch a very early train to get back to work on Monday morning. He was very tempted and I had resigned myself to yet another Robbie free weekend, but even Robbie could see that it was madness. We were due to have lunch and tea with my mum on Saturday and he didn't want to miss out, so very reluctantly he turned down the trip. He may as well have gone because he has talked about little else all weekend. As soon as I woke up this morning he showed me his mobile phone, he had been sent a picture of the train leaving Glasgow!
