    Tonight: relaxing after a hard days graft in the garden
    Tomorrow: taking Norpuss I to the vets and hopefully getting his stitches, drains and cone removed. Tomorrow afternoon: having lunch out and going to a matinee of Yes Prime Minister.
    Sunday: More gardening and the beginning of the big clear out of stuff we're not taking with us when we move to Euroland

    Staying dry too so I don't inadvertantly kill off any more brain cells than necessary on the off chance that one of them may have the answer.
    Good luck Gibbon and K2P2

    As my memory retention capability is about 48 hrs, my revision starts at 10am tomorrow.

    Monday visit midevil festival at Ronneburg - they have nice hand made potato crisps made right there when you look at it. The girls love the whole "princess" theme as they call it.

    Hopfully I will have time for a hoon either virtual or real.

    With my wife away in Lanzarote with 10 special needs kids, my son away at school and my daughter never at home at the weekends as she is always out with her mates. So I'm going to do everything I shouldn't.

    Get pissed, shagging and lap dancing clubs a plenty. But in the real world I'll be having a new front door fitted on Saturday as well as carpet on the stairs and hall. Clear out my sh1t tip of a computer room. Setup my new laptop. Clean up a laptop for a n other. Go for a few beers with my mates on Saturday night. Walk the dog a few times and then head back down here.

    Pretty boring. The whole getting pissed, shagging and lapdanciong clubs probably wan't a good move anyway as the wife would kill me!

    Still decorating! I'm hoping to finish the lounge this weekend, just the skirting board to paint, touch up a couple of patches on the ceiling and wallpaper the chimney breast.

    Also hoping to assemble my new water rowing machine.

    Saturday night we're having a couple of friends round for dinner, just got back from Borough Market where I bought some chicken breasts stuffed with spring onion and garlic. Bresaola, Parmesan and rocket salad to start.

    Flying home tonight and fitting my new graphics card.

    Tomorrow, out on the bike for a few hours, spend a bit of time in the park with my son and his football, then my parents are visiting in the afternoon & evening. I might pop to the Korean supermarket and stock up on dumplings.

    Sunday nothing planned, perhaps a trip to the aquarium, perhaps pop out for a pint with some friends in the evening.

    Monday nothing planned until I fly back in the evening.

    Rather annoyingly I forgot to pack my waterstones, so sharpening the knives will have to wait.
