Party Boy

It was Jamie's Year 10 formal last night. He wore the suit he wore to Jono and Narelle's wedding last year. I asked him last week to try it on and ensure it still fitted since he's had quite a growth spurt.
Yesterday morning, rushing to get to work, I asked if he'd tried the suit on. Yes he had. Then I asked to see it. Good job I did. It had toothpaste-like marks down the front and on one sleeve which I sponged off and the trousers looked like they'd been chucked in the general direction of the coathanger rather than carefully placed on one. So I arranged to leave work early in order to help him get ready.
Good job I did. I ironed the trousers and while preparing to iron the shirt found the collar and cuffs were filthy. I quickly scrubbed the shirt in the sink and shoved it in the dryer. Not impressed.
Anyway, he finally got away ok and had a great time although he lost his wallet during the evening, found it later but by then the the money was gone.

Bad luck about the wallet, glad that you managed to have a good evening despite that.
