Friday night - good (actually, may contain traces of lie. Excellent is a more appropriate aphorism).
Saturday - fairly good, spent the day with the dog chilling out
Sunday - good, got an email asking me to pitch for a £20,000 piece of work (one month piece of work) in the City
All in all, a good weekend.

Popped down to Manchester for the weekend...
Went to see the Eagles, then stopped off afterwards in the Hard Rock Cafe for (far too many) cocktails. Spent a lot of yesterday recovering

I remember Beirut back in the 60's when it was the Playboy capital of the Middle East. These days most parts are now rebuilt, but is looking a bit too modern to me, much of the charm of the old has been lost IMO.Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostWeekend was rainy; trained, ate lots of shepherd's pie and didn't do much else.
Now working at home; have just chucked some chlorine in the pool while waiting for clientco's deploy.
How's Beirut? I've always wanted to visit Lebanon; is it peaceful now? How about the prices?
Still a great place for a short break though.

Spent the weekend at my mothers, eating too much and staying up late into the night chatting (very chilled)

Spent Sat/Sun afternoons/evening in the pub to stop me having 'bright' ideas regarding what I am working on and having to spend the next week fixing the damage.
Now it's Monday, I'm not sure what to do.

Still, back to the office now and no more breaks planned till Aug.

Not bad. I decided to cut down a tree in the front garden on a whim yesterday. My left shoulder hurts so much I can barely type.Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostDid you have a nice weekend?
