Tonight I drive a hire car to Llandudno - Mrs BP has 4 houses/guesthouses/hotels for me to view. Sunday morning I have to leave at 7am to get the twins back to their mother for noon. -
Actually going to stay up in Edinburgh this weekend rather than flying home - flying the wife up instead.
One of my flatmates is working at the festival and has sorted some free tickets, so going to see a Steven Berkoff play and some Jim Henson Workshop thing.Comment

Picking up a whole (hopefully dead and butchered) lamb from a local farmer for the freezer
Finally getting round to investigating setting up solar energy for the allotment cottage as cabled networked power is not possible, I'm thinking along the lines of:
solar panel -> converter -> caravan battery (possibly 2 ??) -> Plug socket.
All it needs to run is a lightbulb for 3-4 hrs, play a radio for around 6hrs and charge up a phone once in a while, being used on average 4 days a month in total, if it can cope with anything more then that's a bonus.The proud owner of 125 Xeno Geek PointsComment

My left knee is almost as bad as last Sunday. I can cycle on it fine but can hardly walk - its now starting to hurt my hip. I need to decide if to see a doctor and if to do the brutal double. At least now my health insurance has kicked in.
I thought you were doing that big cycle this weekend?Comment

Taking the tribe camping up to Hadrians wall, near Haltwhistle. A walk tomorrow and a picnic at Once brewed.
