Standing in Kmart, trying to work out what things he should get to take on the upcoming camping trip, when he walks past a display with full Star Wars Storm Trooper costumes. I should totally turn up wearing this. Everyone would lose their minds...
But, first things first. Wayland fishes his cell phone out from his hoodie and dials the number for his cabal mate @Pelican .
*Ring ring*
As my ferociously witty nieces are contending their preferred toy, their uncle, I hear my phone ringing. They want to play card game.
Break. I pick my mobile. Uff safe. A not so well known number.
I enter another room.
"hello there, what can I do for you?"

"Yo, its Wayland. With this camping trip coming up, i was like, gonna get a hire car to drive up there. You know, seeing as its gotta be pretty hard to get a bus there i reckon. You need a lift?"
"Camping?" a brief moment of silence.
"That would be nice, and where is it?"
I am rummaging something.

Wayland almost drops his phone as a bunch of kids rush by. Little shits.
"its up north a bit yo, by a rat farm? Thats where that Nature chick at our meet and greet told us to meet her at. Do ya want me to pick you up on the way through?"
"Ja, deffo. Need to prepare some stuff. Give me a suitable time. I'll be ready. Bring me an ol' guitar. Is it for weekend?
The voice is calm. Just inquiring friendly on something unexpected.
Would be nice to have some bere, I recondito. I'll pick some.

Realization dawns on Wayland mid conversation.
"Ahh shit. I just realized bro, the Nature Chick was only wanting to take the new kids in town out for a camping trip. Sorry bro."
He felt like a bit of a dick, but it's better than that awkward, "oh, you brought someone else...." moment.
I smile from my side.
"No problems then, bro. On the other hand, I've got the key of that workshop. So, we might get down to that after you return from camping trip. Does it sould cool to you?".

"That'd be awesome. I'll give you a ring when I get back."
"Have fun, mate. Catch you later. Ta rah"
"Why did the hell I use ta rah? Too much time with George."
One of his niece is waiting patiently for him. An ambush?
