Something for the weekend Sir?
 
Do you have plans?


Tomorrow I'm "at work" all day auditing a masters course for my own amusement... And Sunday I am very actively doing absolutely NOTHING.... May even put a Do Not Disturb sign on the door and try and sleep past 0530 for once....

What are you up to?????

We shall be going to our new house to measure up the en-suite bathroom as it will need ripping out and re-doing. Also checking out powerpoints, tv points and a few other things. The boy has football matches Sat and Sun and the rest of the time will be spent doing the weekly shop and packing

Collecting a friends ute, putting a shower in the back of it, adding a vanity unit, bed and mattress and transporting the whole lot (along with a boat) tour new island getaway.

Oh and trying not to panic about how to get 84 tonnes of sand to the same place when the only access is by boat, and we can't crane it in.

I love having a project, and it will be fab when it's done but it's giving me a complete nightmare logistically at the minute as have to have a phosphate retaining system in :(

Tie you hair back, wear some granny glasses.... Then when you find someone you fancy take the hairband out out, shake out your locks and remove the glasses In A come hither manner.... Try unbuttoning the top two or three buttons of your shirt...

Libraries are FULL of young men just waiting to be distracted!

Peter Robinson, Stephen Leather, Lee Child..

JD Robb, set in the future, but a series of police crime novels, not too futuristic though, 35 so far.
