Up early Saturday morning. 20 mile bike ride, then a five mile run, followed by a quick stint in the gym.
9am showered and dressed. Got the kids in the car and drove them to Wiltshire. By 11am paragliding over the Wiltshire hills with the kids. Then popped into Bath where I had arranged
Gordon Ramsey to cook us lunch. The kids loved his fish fingers. Then after lunch the Roman Baths where I explained the history to a group of Japanese tourists before heading out
to take part in a 4x4 Rally, which we came second. This was caused by a terrible crash in front of us, I had to leap out and physically push a lorry off the road (its amazing where you get strength), I then put the passenger in the rally car, drove to the hospital, dropped them off and got back to be second. By 5pm, popped in a private plane, flew to Disney land Paris with the kids, where they kept all of the rides open for us until 1am before flying back and parachuting out of the plane back to our house, where I then wrote a movie script which I emailed to a Hollywood film studio who replied within 10 minutes saying it was the best thing they'd ever seen and signing me up for a £10million contract, then off to bed.

Saturday sorted out the cellar, Sunday sorted out the garage. Sunday night sorted out a Chicken Jalfrezi, vindaloo hot.
You?...my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...
