Saturday - watching the cross-country phase of the Badminton horse trials (from behind a cushon - the course is very, very scary) Possibly a bit of Eurovision (epends how much weve had to drink)
Sinday - watching the conclusion to Badminton horse trials. Will cook a chicken curry as Mr Z hasn't had one for a few days.
