Tonight, either seeing Inside Out with almost-mrs M. or sleeping - I don't seem to be healing properly and I'm bloody tired lately.
Tomorrow - Specsavers, kitting a-mM out with motorbike gear, then a stag do.
Sunday - recovering? Possible bike ride? Weather's meant to be tulip though.
Been away for two weeks so the missus will be randy as anything, so after six/seven hours driving home I'll need to dampen her enthusiasm until the morning
Tonight: signing new contract and popping open a bottle of fizz to celebrate, fajitas on the BBQ
Tomorrow: picking up my replacement cast iron griddle, mooching around the market and drinks with friends
Sunday: Nowt planned, cooking, wine, F1 not necessarily in that order, possibly editing blog entries and readying new ones for the upcoming months.
"Ask not what you can do for your country. Ask what's for lunch." - Orson Welles
Enjoying the sun and warmth of home, while watching the UK weather forecast with a modicum of schadenfreude. And going to see T5.
Well, that was quite good. Emilie Clarke really nails Linda Hamilton's Sarah Connor... but Kyle isn't convincing. Too big, yet somehow not tough enough.
Currently sitting in living room with Mrs SB whilst youngest daughter SB07 hosts her 16th birthday party in the adjacent dining room and back garden.
Took youngest 2 sons, SB05 & SB06 to Exeter Airport earlier as they are jetting off to Amsterdam for a 4-day break.
Have made a huge bowl of punch for SB07's motley crew of visitors using all the leftover bits of various alcoholic beverages that seemed like a good idea once upon a time but have since been cluttering up the drinks cabinet gathering dust.
Provided that none of them set fire to the Thatched roof skinning up, and the Plod don't turn up due to noise pollution when "Let's Marvin Gaye and get it on" reaches its crescendo, all should be well.
Bangs goes my quiet saturday night in with Mrs SB putting the ferret through the furry hoop, but hey-ho! Can't win 'em all!!
And tomorrow we have the outlaws turning up by 10am. Oh happy day!!

Tomorrow - WFH. continuing on from last week. This time on a Haswell doing TomEE/MariaDB/Daytrader and LAMP plus attempting to upgrade SLES11 to SLES12 via the HMC on a z13
Its meant to be cooler this weekend and we've had a bit of rain but its still like a ******* sauna at night...Now next weekend will be better, London watch out.
