Ambition

Riding to work on the top deck of the bus, I became aware of a disgruntled child's voice from downstairs - well, it is the first day back at school.

I wasn't sure I'd heard it correctly, but when I came down the stairs to get off, the smiles all around confirmed it. Granny was obviously taking her to school, so a very determined six-year-old was chanting "I want to retire! I WANNA RE-TIE-AH!!!"
