How nice of you to ask.
Tonight I fly back to that silly little airport and visit my old mum. There's no need to dash home because Wifey has gone to the Netherlands for the weekend so as long as I'm home in time to pick the dog up from the M-I-L's all will be well.
Saturday is to be admin and laundry and a bit of cleaning. If there's time (I'll make time, DAMMIT) I will go as far as I can towards drinking myself into a lonely stupor.
Sunday - the massive drawback of only having that silly little airport nearby is that I need to leave the house at 7.30am in order to be able to reach our Hungarian office in time for a Monday morning meeting.Comment
