Go and see some historic site on Sunday (weather independent). Stuff to fix in the house on Monday (unless weather good)

Looks like all the school Mums are planning to get trashed.

TFA...
Started yesterday with a public holiday (Ascension) but was also Fathers Day where men go into the woods with beer and sausages and do manly things although I just went to the pub. Also the annual 4 day music festival, Schlossgrabenfest, started here yesterday so will be doing that....“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

Regular commute tonight. Twins are coming with me after visiting their mother(ex-mrs-bp) for half term.
Tomorrow I cycle round the Orme with baby bp and one of his friends. Mrs BP wants me to do a charity shop run. Then main PC(computer not pyschocandy!) is stuffed - DS1 will try to fix. Else it is buy a new one.
Sunday morning is usual commute. Then I do it all again.....Comment

The Wife (tm) is away.
At a guess, if the weather forecast is correct:
1. Gardening
2. Dog walking
3. Beer
(points 2 & 3 could be combined into one, depending on whether I do a big walk to one of the fine establishments on the hills around me)
Unfortunately I am on call tonight and Sunday night, so it won't be kicking off quite yet…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment
