If you’ve never been to Japan, I highly recommend Shikoku Island. And if anyone’s wondering where I ran off to last week, that would be where. I could live there, actually.

Good thing portkeys exist and don’t always break, so I can go back sometime.

Not really a bad week. Just a... not so great birthday. Got into an argument with Meathead Meaghan...

... I forgot your birthday. I'm not sure how, but sorry, mate. I owe you a beer or two. And cake.

What are you two fighting about now?

How is it you manage to forget my birthday when it's on Valentine's Day? If you come through with the beer and cake you're forgiven.

Whataya mean? We ain't fought in ages. Anyway she's... not really doing alright with the shake ups at Portree, and got to thinking that I could come back. Don't get me wrong I'd like to play again, but I've got QUABBLE at the moment and... this is all basically what I told her. And she didn't like that I'd said no? Things just kind of went down from there and we haven't talked at all since then.

Have you forgotten the year I broke up with the Bats chaser so that I didn't have to celebrate Valentine's Day with her? And then she showed up at your party and about knocked me out?

Not high on the list of holidays I celebrate, mate. But I'll make it up to you.

Maybe fighting's the wrong word. Anyway it sounds like you're right, she's not doing alright. Cause that's an odd thing to get mad at you about.

Have you tried since then?

[...] Okay, you make a good point there.

I did say it was an argument... Reckon you would've heard about it if it had been a proper fight. I don't think she's taking the changes at Portree that great, and with Joy not coming back... I don't know.

No, I like keeping my head attached to my neck. Seriously though, I thought I'd give her a bit of space is all.

You want me to try? To talk to her I mean?

Think about that, and think about what day other than Friday works best for the pub.

I guess you can try?

Yeah, alright. Any other day I probably shouldn't pick - just in case?

Alright, I'll figure something out. I mean, I'm good at sudden changes of topic when needed.

Nah, my work hours are close to normal right now. And if they want me to show up at 8 am for another pointless meeting I've no qualms about coming in hungover.

You'd really go back to playing if you could?

Really hadn't noticed...

That's alright, though I'm not as lucky. Don't reckon when I have meetings with team management folk that they'd be happy seeing me rock up still drunk or hungover.

If I was in bit better shape and I didn't have QUABBLE... then yeah prolly would, or I'd seriously think about it at least.

Oh, I do it all the time, mate.

Yeah, well 9 times out of 10 there's no reason for me to be there. If there was, I'd maybe mind it less. Who schedules meetings before lunch, anyway?

I mean at the rate they're going the Pride will need another new chaser by the Neep.

You don't say?

Crazy people who are trying to get a decent deal for whatever player they're working with at the time?

To be honest I wouldn't be surprised. It's a wonder they have slumped in the league the way they've gone through players.

No actually I did just say...

I'd give out better deals after lunch if only for the sake of it being after lunch.

So yeah, let me know when you want to drink. I'm trying to think of pubs that have cake or if I need to just bring one with me.

You're ruining quality sarcasm of mine there.

Early meetings are a good tactic though. If I'm trying to get a player a decent deal I don't want their team management feeling that much at ease because it's a post-lunch meeting.

Will do. Oh, you definitely need to bring one.

I’d apologise but I’m not actually sorry?

And are you sure you don’t wanna try and see what the Leaky might consider to be birthday cake?

And probably wouldn't have believed you anyway.

Does the Leaky even make cakes at all?

It's like you know me.

As tempted as I am, and I am tempted now, I don't think that it's a good time to test it out when I forgot your birthday in the first place.

Do I? I don't know that I do...

Exactly. So which pub then?
