Got friends from Ireland over this weekend so I'll be entertaining and doing tourist things with them.

Painting lots of new plaster (it's had 2 weeks to dry thoroughly) and woodwork after extensive repairs and alterations to the attic. I hate the whole painting with primer then top coats stuff, but it needs doing.
Oh and lots of cleaning up dust prior to painting too.
Dinner out on Saturday evening.

Take Mrs PL out for a bite to eat later.
Mostly likely B&Q related activities on Sat before heading out to watch the rugby.
Sun: Nice lie in and time on the sofa.

Sue, you know - I'm starting to suspect you're a sockie. No one can be as up their arse as you.

Top Tip, offer to take the dog out yourself when you get the chance, do this a few times and the dog will associate you with something it enjoys. Get the dog on side and your laughingOriginally posted by Sockpuppet View PostHa Ha. I went and walked the dog with her. Now that does sound like a really bad euphimism but its not, we actually walked the dog. I don't think it likes me.
I should have my own tag line. Sockpuppet......Super Stud.
*Ok there was also a meal but that's not nearly as interesting as telling people I walked her dog....well to me its not anyway.
It worked with Mrs B and her ( later our) mutt. It got to the point that I turned up one evening and the dog met me at the door with his lead in his mouth
