That sounds like a good weekend. I was going to mow the lawns this weekend & strip some more spent tomato plants out of the greenhouses.
I’ll get the mowing done today though, as it’s forecast a full weekend of rain in my neck o the woods. Plus I’ve got a bag of 50 daffodil bulbs to plant out too so I’ll get them done today as well.
Are you available for hire ? because I’ve got a Jaguar and I think you can help. 
Bangkok, off to get a couple of Weston’s Cider in happy hour, with fish n chips with the wife, introducing her to British food .
Then relaxing for the rest of the weekend before returning Monday morning, then back to work at noon!!!
Then comedy hour with and American/Egyptian comedian. Should be interesting

Head up into City to pick the wife up from her day out with her mates,…grab a Chinese on way home.

Chill.Sunday, weekend sorted.
Then got 9 days off, (when I’m gonna do wtf I like, including a couple of nights away with Mrs.)
is everything ok rr? i know you mentioned health issues the other day
Nah I’m fine mate, just got time off to use up my hols.
Mon and Tues off as normal, Wed Thur Fri hols, then off to following Wed as normal.
The ‘‘health thing’’ the other week was just a minor procedure on one of my eyes, and I did not expect them to tell me to have 2 weeks off.
Thanks for asking anyhoo.

I go in for the lay in as don’t need to be in Thame till 8 am so 5:30 card in daily checks then go 5:45 as boxes loaded already ,
No card in at 00:01for me
Now we are talking about this kipping in yard for an early start thing…OK.I’ll bite.
Each to his own, but way I see it is this…
I rarely start before 6 unless it suits ME…end of..
(Btw I am posting this at 4am as I am going to get my trailer now ONLY to get home earlier,… otherwise it would be 6…before anybody picks me up.
)
Sleeping in yard on a Sunday to start early feeling fresh..
I do get why you would do it yeah.. but the fact that you feel the need to do so, is telling you it is too bloody early to start, and you are essentially giving up your own time for nothing.
What I would do would be say to office…
‘‘Look a Mon ‘X’ am start is unreasonable, but I am prepared to do it if you pay me a night out in yard, and that way I will have had sufficient rest to start’’
Now knowing my lot … they would say (after laughing at my suggestion)
‘‘Nah Dick is prepared to give his Sunday afternoon up for nowt so he can do it, he can come in Sun afternoon for a kip’’.
Then I’d say..
‘‘Ok Dick looks he is living up to his name, let him crack on…see ya at 6 am’’.
Sorted.

No Sunday afternoon wasted with me , gonna be at least 7pm before I’m in and then I’ll settle down for some internet browsing
Yep fair enough we’re all different.
Thing with me is I’m a bit of an arse (yep I know, hard to believe )
I don’t give an inch with my lot on a reap what they sow basis.
Fire cleaned ✓
Dog clipped and bathed ✓
Apple juice cans emptied ✓
lawn mowed ✓
Buy another car ✓ WAIT A MINUTE! That weren’t on the list

I’ve fallen for doing the laundry today & there’s a mountain of it 
I’ve also got a new security light to put up as the old one has gone belly up.
Jeez man I wouldn’t know how to even switch the washing m/c on.…(I could say something about dogs and barking myself, but I wouldn’t dare.)
My plans have changed this morning I bought a 50 quid voucher for afternooon teas for our wedding anniversary way back in April deadline for use this week.
Wife kept postponing it…on a diet🙄
So me and my 2 lads are going for a full English each this morning.
Just heard my daughter is tagging along…and she has asked my old Dad to join us (she is good at things like that when I am paying) so I reckon my voucher won’t go far… it aint a cheap establishment (wife would not have appreciated Spoons on our anniversary .
)
I am just too god dam generous.

LOL, I’ve been the chief cook & bottle wash for as long as I can remember in 53 years, Missus is five years older than me & struggling to do jobs around the house these days since falling & fracturing her hip last year, at least that’s what she tells me 
. Full English, you can’t beat it. I had bacon & sliced tomatoes on toast for mine this morning.
What none of the Bury’s finest fare
Black pudding is on the shopping list for next week, I’ve been getting the Holt dale farm black pudding from B&M stores lately, It’s nice stuff.

Sorry about yer Mrs mate, hope she gets sorted.
In my case mine is younger than me, so she (tries to) ‘‘keeps me young’’ if ya like.
Got to say she is great, she’s more like my P.A…does everything and I’d be lost without her.
(Looks are also stunning…but enough about me.)
Anyhoo went for brekkie enjoyed it all, and we had a good laugh…especially my old man (88 years old)
Me, Dad, Mikey, Sophie, and Stevie Boy.
My eldest lass Taania is away and not suited she missed out…so more expense for me when she gets back.…and I bet they all invite themselves for that.
Off to football…pub.
Best put a pic of the Mrs up in case she feels left out.…out with her mates yesterday.
I lurrrve my life.
