Ms. Dangerfield's Saturday
I did have a fairly lazy weekend. On Saturday, I was cooking dinner when the bell rang. My husband forgot his keys. I went back to the kitchen and finished cooking the curry. After dinner, we watched Netflix.
We were watching Derry Girls in the dark when somebody knocked on the door. It was our neighbour. He wanted to know whether we would participate in the trick-or-treat night. Later, I was getting ready for bed while my husband read the news. He was reading an article which discussed the role The Troubles played in the show Derry Girls.
