At this hour it was probably for him, she said, closing her eyes. Jim rolled out of bed and trundled downstairs. When he returned his wife was asleep. He woke her. ‘Wasn’t for me after all,’ he said. She crawled out of bed and pulled on her dressing gown. Then he added, ‘it was a wrong number.’ Want an entry on these sheets? See Ken Thomas as early as possible.
